Hello Folks! Allow me to introduce myself: Retired. Living in the boonies in the foothills of the north GA mountains with my bride of 48 years.
2 kids=6 grandkids. 1 fairly contemporary SUV, 1 almost "vintage" MB ragtop. 1 vintage Ford F-150. Have lately switched from fiddling with old cars to fiddling with motorcycles - the parts are lighter, you seldom lay beneath them on a cold concrete floor, you don't need a chiropractor after bending over the fender working in the engine bay. Plus - I have rediscovered from the days of my long ago youth how much dang FUN they are! Recently, I added my 4th bike - a 2012 Triumph Bonneville T100, to the other 3 - a 2009 Royal Enfield Bullet 500, 2012 Honda NC700X, and a zippy little Suzuki TU250X. I have already enjoyed several rides on my Bonnie, I am beginning to think the other bikes will not see nearly as much action as before. Over the years (quite a few!) I have owned and enjoyed more than a dozen motorcycles, most of them different makes and models. I am blown away by the Triumph! Discounting the usual "honeymoon" period with new bikes, I have to say that it is by far the best handling, best riding, best looking motorcycle I have ever owned!
I look forward to learning a lot from my new pals here on the forum. I will contribute when I can do so intelligently (rarely), but will wait, look, and listen a while before then.
