I am a retired Power Plant Operator, 60 years young, and ready to ride my new stead. I got the motorcycle bug at 11 years old. While on vacation I got to sneak a ride on a mighty Honda P-50 ( peddle 50 ). To feel that wind in my face at 30 mph, hooked me on motorcycles the rest of my life. I have owned a few motorcycles the last 45 years. Here are the ones I remember:
2004 Road Star Silverado ( just sold )
2001 Gold Wing GL 1800
1997 Valkyrie Tourer Custom
1975 GL 1000
1983 Yamaha Venture Royal
1981 Yamaha XS 1100 Special
1979 Yamaha XS 1100
1976 Honda 750 Sport
1972 Yamaha 360 Enduro
1969 Honda CB 350 Scrambler
1970 Yamaha 250
I was a proud member of the VRCC. I consider the F6B a Super Valk! I do love the looks of the 2014 Valkrie. I look forward to meeting you at a ride. Looking forward to more time in the forum. Good Riding, Fatrboy
Looks like we have some things in common...I started off working for the power company as an electrical engineer and like you, I was a previous Valkyrie, Goldwing, and Venture Royale owner. I had a lot of dirt bikes too. BTW, I sure never missed that Venture. Talk about top heavy
! This is one of the things that makes the F6B so special... the low CG. You're going to love it, I'm sure! Welcome to a great bike and a great group of riders!
