Trapper,

I am not a spammer , I was just trying to let everyone know about the NRR.
It is a world wide riding group. thats it. But if trying to get the word out on this is a violation to this forum, i will not post it anymore. I apologize if I offended anyone

Cool Lc

I got my first bike a few years ago at age 63, and my license after taking the beginner and intermediate rider safety courses. I presently ride a Suzuki LS 650 Savage. I'm looking to move up to an 1100 or 1300cc Honda. My wife is a little reluctant to ride with me so I'm thinking of converting my next bike with a voyager trike conversion kit. I think this will give me the best of both worlds. If anyone has experience with this type of set-up I'd like to hear from you.

Hello all. First post. Have a Ninja 250 and like riding the streets, but would like an on/off road bike better. Been looking around. Seems the DR650SE would be a good choice. Any suggestions? Just want to ride fairly good trails and dirt roads, nothing to narley, just simple enduro-type. Wade

We're older too. We, my husband and I grew up with bikes, then moved onto overwork and high anziety jobs. We started back with 250 Hondas and are now on Suzuki M50s. This is a good time to start back. The bigger bikes are a lot easier for shorter people like us to handle. I figure if we're too tired to ride we can sit on our toys and make vroom vroom noises.

hello everyone.
I just joined a few days ago, totally missed this topic and forgot to do an introduction. Sorry
My name is Dave - I operate a custom exhaust business called Fith Gear Customs. We build exhaust systems, custom parts, and total custom bikes.
Seems to be a nice forum and I am spending a good bit of time zooming around the topics. (If I talk to much - just say "Shut up Amish" and I'll go sit back down haha)

Welcome

I've been through Mobile a few times. Had some extremely good ribs there ( best I've ever had actually, a friend lives there and took us as we passed through ).

Default Hello from Memphis, TN

Hello from Memphis, TN. I've owned a 2007 Suzuki Boulevard C90T for about 6 months and love it. I'm glad to be a part of the forum and since this is my first bike, I'm sure I can learn a lot from the more experienced riders. I'll be back soon.

With safety in mind,

Hi everybody!
Like many of you I have bought me a motorcycle just lately, after beeing without one for 30 or so years. Kids grown up and left house, wife and I suddenly find time to do things we haven't been able to do before. At 54 I bought me a Suzuki VS 1400 hoping for many good trips.
