Default Allow me to 'introduce' myself

I am a "growing older" Architect in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

I bought my first motorcycles in 1971 after returning from Vietnam.
I just wanted a small "get around town" sorta bike ... a Kawasaki Bushmaster (100cc)
A month later, I traded up to a Kawasaki 350 Avenger.
The riding bug had bit me hard.

Over the past 40 years I have had many of the popular bikes.
Everything from a Kawasaki KX900 to a Harley 1200 Sportster.

Always a "cruiser" style though.

Oh year, I once bought a '72 Triumph 650 ... totally chopped.
The seat was, about 24" of the ground and it had a 12" extended front-end.

I'm looking to buy a new bike (probably my last one) ... a 2010 Honda 'Fury'

If you typed 2010 Honda Fury and meant KZ900 you must be at least as old and confused as I am. Welcome to the forum

I'm probably older . . . will be 62 next month.

Bought my first bike in 1971. Riding ever since.
Although, I do own a car or two.
