Welcome Brian; Sorry to hear about your wife's passing - tough pill to swallow there. Good on you to get back in the saddle, after all these years & congrats on the sweet scoot. Have you considered taking a MSF course, to relearn the basics?? Might help in subsiding some of those fears. Enjoy & hope you get many care-free miles on the Fatty.

Thanks for the welcomes! I already passed the e-course portion of the test. I take my MSF course on July 14, 2023. Looking forward to the hands on course!
