| I am new to this site, but not new to motorcycling or the Honda Silverwing. I bought an 03 SW a year ago that had 97 miles on it. It now has 1500. I enjoy the SW so much that I sold the cruiser bike I had to devote all of my riding time to it. I love the simplicity of the bike and the look too!
I am 57 years old and in the next two weeks I plan on a 3 week vacation down to Arizona and back.
I don't drink, smoke or any other nasty habits....except I have a hard time pushing myself away from the table every now and then.
Single too. |

| Larry,
Welcome to the site and hope you enjoy it. If you get a chance please post some pics in the "Album" section. You can create your own folder for pics. Like Bill said, maybe you can also tell us what cruiser you had and how it compares to the SWing. Please be active here and share your knowledge with us too. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here. Again, welcome. _________________ Ride safe, JeffR 2007 Silver Wing (30,000 miles) 2005 Majesty 400 (sold 12,500 miles) 2004 Reflex (sold 3,500 miles) Givi Windshield, top case, vista cruise, power commander, dr pulley sliders, air hawk seat pad, (J.

| This is a big Arkansas howdy Larry. Great to have you... I have an 03 myself and love it. I can't imagine someone having a bike so great and not putting more than 75 miles on it in 6 years... they must have lived right next to the dealer. You found a treasure that you are going to have for a long time. |
