Everybody was telling me I should start out on a small bike. I thought it would be cheaper just to buy a big bike up front and be easy on the throttle.

Now in my late 60's, so def getting a little old in the body but not in mind and spirit! First mc was a Kawi KZ900, followed by a KZ1000. In '90 my passion for Harleys began with an FXR which I rode for 20 yrs, and now on an FB, which will prob be my last mc ever.

That's a real nice....Very nice Formula. I got hooked on Pontiac's when my Aunt & Uncle pulled up in their brand new red with white interior 1965 Pontiac GTO, nicest car I've ever seen at the time (I was 5 years old). I still remember my Aunt being upset with my Uncle for buying a brand new car with no hubcaps (Rally Wheels). I've always liked the Formula's. My Dad was going to order a 1979 Trans Am but I talked him into getting the cleaner, lighter, rarer, Formula. I also ordered a 2000 WS6 Formula six speed hardtop, my daily driver, my only driver.

I also like the FXR's, specifically the FXLRC Low Rider Custom. About a year after I bought my VMax I stopped at a Harley Davidson dealer and saw a Low Rider Custom that I really liked, my girlfriend at the time (my Wife) said I should buy it, but funds were tight so I went home with a poster that I hung on my garage wall. So almost twenty years later I finally got a Low Rider but it didn't look right to me. It was that poster with the 21" front wheel (still hanging in my garage today), that was one of the first on my list to install.

I'm a 63 year old below the knee amputee and I'm riding more than I ever have. At the end of last September I traded in my 2008 Superglide with 125000 miles for a 2016 Street Bob. Rode the Street Bob out west to see the leaves change in the Colorado high country and ride the canyons of Utah.

I turn 65 next month. Like many I moved from a Sporty to a Dyna. I ride a '14 Switchback with fairing, 255 cams, etc. I love riding, and have a lot of fun with the friends I've met because of it.

Not yet 55, only 44 here......but I have to tell you all, you're an inspiration to all us young kids that look forward to riding well into retirement. In the crossfit world we call anyone above 55 "Masters", maybe the same could be said for those of you still out there pushing the envelope and trying to stay young at heart.

Awesome to see people with disabilities still riding. I have a few myself but nothing that serious.
