RE: 60+ riders
I'm 62. Back when I was in my twenties I rode a Triumph, Yamaha and finally a Sportster. I stopped riding after I got married and had a family to support.
Then, when I turned 60 Igot the bug to ride again. I started out looking at the new Honda's. I then went to the Harley shop. I was there only a little while before I knew that I was only interested in buying a Harley.
I bought a new Sportster. The next year I sold the Sportster and bought a new Low Rider. Now, I have the Low Rider up for sale and I just bought a new 07 Electra Glide.
Wife's not too happy. But, I'm having a great time.
