    Damn kids. My first two wheels was a Lambretta scooter I picked it up when the US Army sent me to Ankara, Turkey, in 1960.

    My first real bike was a Ducati something (single, 175-250?), about 1964. There aren't many I haven't owned, or at least ridden, and the F6B is by far the best.

    I am tempted from time-to-time to pick up an old BSA or Triumph. I still have a box full of Whitworth tools and Amal jets. Then I'll have a beer and forget that foolishness for awhile.

    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    Ah, CB750 chopper with invader front wheel and girder front forks! Those were the days! Love the looks of those, as well as old Triumph choppers, too!

    Those unmuffled straight four pipes were loud, too! Awesome bike!

    Big Dog was sold to some kid from Long Island and he crashed it in the first week .
    Beemer found new owner in Pennsylvania . Since 2013 , he added 20.000 more miles .
    If I didn't see F6B , today I would ride K1600GT . Still keeping eye in her , because you never know ...

    I'm still new to riding I guess, compared to you. So many knowledgeable veterans here. My first street bike after my MSF Course was a 1994 250cc Nighthawk in 2006. Rode it 6,000 miles through four months of winter. Then I bought my present ride a 2006 1300R VTX. I had sat on a 2001 Honda Valkyrie before I bought my VTX. Loved it. It was beautiful and fit perfectly. I was not sure of myself then to hold onto so much power. I'm here to learn as much as I can from Y'all. Hope you do not mind I speak occasionally. Most of the time, I read and learn if this will be my next bike, when I am ready.
