| Hello every one my name is Jeff.
I'm 48 I've rode bikes my whole life. Bought a Reflex a year
ago to commute on. I didn't realize how much fun it would be. Purchased an 04
Silver Wing a couple of weeks ago. Looking to learn more about it. |

Is bikes ... motorcycles or bicycles?
If it is motorcycles, I am curious by the statement I didn't realize how much fun it would be ... were not having as much fun on other bikes??

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! I live in the Golden Triangle Area: Beaumont, Port Author, Orange. By bikes I mean motorcycles, I've done a fair amount of cross country touring. My last bike was a 04 R1150RT. It was a great bike and I put a lot of miles on it but I haven't missed it. I've found out (at least my experience) that less is more.

| Welcome and hope you will really enjoy your Silverwing. I'm still learning on my new one and just love it. I have a son in Arlington, TX near Dallas. He seems to love it out there. |
