59 and still love riding, especially when purchasing my first HD 3 years back, a 2014 low rider which really compounded the fun factor of riding, hope to be able to ride until turning room temp.
Turning 55 this October....so do I make the grade? Lol.
Been ridn Harleys 33yrs now, and hope to for another 20+.
My 2013 Switchback, not bad bikes these fancy twin cam computer bikes.
I am not at all surprised to see the numbers climb on this post. Iv been riding the HD's since 1965 an still have the 1973 SG bought new $2,300 out the door at 144,000 miles on it. Most of the Guys I ride with range in age from 50-60's to 75. I not only have the shirt but have the bike
Looking at 56 now; growing older but never going to grow up I've had a fascination with motorcycles for as long as I can remember; started with mini bikes and dirt bikes, the day I turned 16 and got my driver's license and motorcycle endorsement I took my first 'legal' street ride on my Yamaha RD250 2-stroke and I've been street riding ever since.
I've owned near every make, from classic HD's to touring rigs to fire breathing liter bikes. I'm a big believer in training and continued education, a motorcyclist is always improving their skillset; done many track days and taken advanced riding courses and always ready for more.
My first HD and my first brand new motorcycle was a '79 FXS Low Rider 74"; there's always been an HD or two in the garage keeping the sport bikes company. Just the Wide Glide in the garage now, sort of got away from the liter bikes but I have been pondering adding a KTM RC 390 or a Ninja 300 for days when I'm feeling a bit froggy
I just realized I don't have any images of me on the Wide Glide, I'll see if I can get the woman to grab an image and I'll add it to the thread...
Ok, I'll bite. I'm 73 and ride my Switchback most days of the week unless the weather is bad. I've also got a 2015 Z28 Camaro and a Chevrolet SS sedan so life is pretty good. I work out on the elliptical at least an hour a day and shoot a couple of hundred rounds a week with my 1911 45 caliber. I plan on riding at least another ten years and maybe longer if I can stay fit. Pictures of the toys are attached.
