Hi all!

I am just returning to riding and bike owning since I was in my mid 20's, I am 54 now.  My first bike was an 82 CSR1000, sadly I wrecked it being young and dumb, got it road worthy for a couple of years in my 30's and it developed problems I didn't know how to fix and couldn't find a mechanic for so it sat until I gave it away.  Last year my best friend got the bike bug and as you know it's infectious so I hunted down an 82 LTD1000, practically the same bike as my old CSR so we could ride together.  I just love the exhaust note of those big inline 4's.  Anyway, that's a little about me.  I'm happy to be here among people who know and share my passion for these bikes.
