Hello to all,

Stuart here from the UK - bought my Silver Wing 8 weeks ago now (She's Silver, 'n Registered Sept 06 plate), as a re-introduction to two wheels after 10 years break.

Scoot is a bit battered, having been used by the previous owner as a commuter bike - but it has been regularly serviced scratched but never dropped. I've already thoroughly enjoyed riding it, with and without my girlfriend as pillion. My plan is just going to use the scoot for weekends and short tours in the UK and Europe.

Seems that everything on it is still OEM equipment - I changed the headlamp bulbs for HID's but other than that its pretty straight forward.

I'm 5'10" and find a bit of buffering from the standard screen - so having read the reports on here about Givi, Clearvue and Laminar Lip I have opted for a Laminar lip.

Seems though that the accessories front here in the UK doesn't seem as strong - just love the pic of your machine Dennis - that seat looks a great deal more comfy than mine!!

Anyway that's my intro

Hello Stuart and welcome!

I'm ex-London.
If you want maxi-riders to chat and ride with, there's a group from the X9OC who meet for breakfast nearly every Saturday morning around 10.00 at the Ace Cafe. Nearly all are on Silverwings and Burgers now.

They also organise rideouts during Spring, Summer and Autumn.

I know you'd be welcome to join them - Darek and Violetta have been on a couple of the rides.

Welcome Stuart. Just down the road from you - (sort of). Well compared to the USA it's just down the road!!!!! (Bad attempt at humour) No

Loads of good advice and chat.

Barry aka Mr. Bling will keep an eye out for you - he's a tall, slim, grey-haired geezer who rides a white Burger 650 with chrome all over it! Smile

I think one of the unique parts of the Forums is that you get to "communicate" with people from all over the world. Nice to talk to all
of you and may you ride safe and stay in good health.

Hi, my name is Dick Czmowski. I have an 09' Silverwing in the maroon. I am in the process of adding heater slugs in the handle bars, more brakelites under the storage box. I have just 800 on the bike. I live in the south part of Portland, Oregon. My email is dickczmo@aol.com.
