Greetings;
Haven't owned a bike since high school. Had a Honda 160 and loved it. Drove it around town without ever a concern. Decided to take it to the beach. That's about a 4+ hour drive for me
(Keep in mind it was a Honda 160). Got there and sold it and got a ride back home.
That was almost 50 years ago. Decided to give it a try again but this time I just bought a 883 Sportster.
Look forward to learning from the experienced members. Not much of a chatter but I like to read and learn.
Hey Steve.. Welcome to the forum from an old - Hoosier. Hope you Enjoy and have fun posting.
I remember those 160's. good little bikes.. My first Honda was a 305 super hawk in 65... when I was 16... Put almost 15k on it in two summers here.. And My First HD was a 900 Iron I got in 72... Still love bikes but Authur makes it hard for me to ride as much as I'd like to anymore..
