Whatever turns ya on brother, no age limit vs model in motorcycling just the amount of wheels involved ! My neighbor rode Harleys til he was 80 and then down sized to a 250 Honda til he was 92 and rode til the day he died ! Pick a bike just like ya pick your women............make sure there're easy to look at no matter the size and then ride'em as much as ya can!

I just turned 44 last week so I'm one of the kids in this thread. 
I went from riding this
to riding this
The RK is my first bagger (also my first twin cam and my first EFI bike). I wasn't sure how I was going to "bond" with it, but after about 6 months of ownership, I've gotten pretty attached to it. Love the comfort and the roomy bags. Maybe by the time I'm as old as you geezers I'll be ready for the Ultra.

That bobber was something that I'd wanted for a long, long time. I designed that scoot from the ground up in terms of what I wanted and what I didn't. It was a fantastic barhopper and street racer but wasn't good for much else. Wish I could afford two motorcycles, but it had to go. 
I have no regrets about the RKC though. Its introduced me to a whole 'nother aspect of riding. Guess I really am getting old.
