Default New Guy - Rags722
Just wanted to jump in and say Hi. Only been riding since around '64 so I still have a lot to learn. So far, my bikes have been 68 Triumph (purchased in London), 67 Glide, 72 Triumph, 74 Sporty, 81(?) Yam 850 Sp (the bike that almost made me quit riding), 89 FXRS-SP, 97 FLHTCI, 99 FLHTCI, and 05 FLHTCI.
I'm currently testing retirement and working part time for a regional Motorcycle magazine. Kinda stumbled into this site and figured I'd give it a test ride.
