I've been back on a bike for about five years now, after a brief thirty year hiatus.
I had forgotten just how much it gets into your blood, and part of your body. I'm on a 2003 1800 VTX and have no qualms about her, she's been a great ride, and I plan on keeping her around in the stable for many years to come.
OK you ask whats the problem- well I have been yerning for a full dresser for a long long time. Year in, year out Honda would introduce the new models and I'd be waiting for my new love to show her face. Well I'm not gettin any younger here so I started cruising some different sites, and there she was- an 1999 Black I/S with 23,000 miles on her. It was love at first sight I tell ya, one stroke of my hands over that glorious trunk of hers and I knew that it was ment to be-
I expect that you will see plenty more of me in the coming months, and years to come. I hope that this forum is half as great as my VTXOA board that has become my second family over the years. I look foward to meeting and riding with a bunch of ya in the future- oh and thanks in advance for taking me into the fold-
