Hi ya'll
I’ve been riding motorcycles for near 40 years. I still have the 1st bike that I ever bought, a 1976 Honda CB125S. I raced a 1970 Bultaco 250 on a dirt flat track for a little while - a long while back (should have kept that one). Rode a hot-rodded “frankenbike” Yamaha 650 Special for many years, still have that one also. You name the part, I'll tell you the year.
I have ridden many, many others that belonged to various people including “WHEN NEW” the 1977 Kawasaki KZ1000 and the 1979 Honda CBX . I should have bought that CBX when I had the opportunity, but it was a real pig when riding in traffic.
I have ridden almost all of the Harley-Davidson models since 2008 when I bought mine and by far and so far …the bike that I have really enjoyed the most is my Vivid Black 2008 Harley Sportster XL1200C and I like it because it feels like a motorcycle should, it’s easy to handle, highly nimble and stops fast. After my first set of tires wore out I went with the XR1200 style of tire and I really like them. I look forward to getting to know ya'll.
