Best way to ad photos is to upload to your album first then publish from there.

We need new blood, the old forum is struggling these days but you will find a wealth of info here, far better than asking Face Book questions and getting twenty different opinions.
It seems many new owners come here, ask a few questions and then evaporate

(Re: AZCactus) | | | Good morning gentlemen: It's been awhile now since I last posted on this site and got thinking about you guys this morning .So I thought I'd drop in to say hello and hope I'm not disrupting anything.Obviously,I'm still alive and still riding my Indian which now has alittle over 82000 miles on it.I see a lot new names on here,but also some old names.And I also see that this site is doing very well.So,with that said,I'll move on now and allow you gentlemen to talk about me "once again"!! So please carry on gentlemen and take care!! Dave!!!

(Re: MotorMac) | | | I tried to respond to your question,but the site wouldn't let me back in after I finished my response ,hence I lost the whole post! So,in a shorter version,the answer is yes and no.The radial tires that came on that bike were the biggest reason I traded it because it was getting expensive,and as I'm sure you know,I did and still do,all my own work.If it wasn't for them,I'd probably still be riding it!! Dave!!!

Hope those tires are studded.

| | Posted : 12 Feb 2024 - 01:48 Post title : Re: Meet the members! (Re: MotorMac) | | | Affirmative! I have now lived in the same place for the past 71 years,taking over the property when I was 18 years old because my folks could not handle it anymore.And yes again: We do have quite a bit of snow here over the winter months,so,naturally,riding the bike really wasn't an option ,yet, I still rode it every single day,rain,shine,or snow to travel 20 miles one way,every day, back and forth to work for over 35 years,which was when I finally retired,and that was 22 years ago.I am now 77,and still riding and still enjoying every minute of it. Dave!!!

Some new faces but it appears that many only join to sort out a problem and then don't return to add to the input, some don't even report if the problem was fixed with our help, the way of the information world now I guess. Both my bikes are doing well, still ridden each once a week and to Flockings. The old Honda still sits next to the pool table, I must move it to the shed and start it up, been a long time.

| | Posted : 25 Feb 2024 - 23:45 Post title : Re: Meet the members! (Re: WestOzBird) | | | I got a Rocket iii Touring back last February and 2010 Thunderbird in July. Love these bikes! The Thunderbird is my daily rider. My wife hated it, mainly because the small back seat. Upgraded it to a mustang, now it's my wife's favorite bike lol. How's the Bonneville? Never been on one, but I really want to. Closest thing to one I've been on is my Uncles 71 Honda 350 (back when Honda was imitating the Bonnies) loved that little bike.
