I'm 57 but I easily feel like the oldest here! If I hadn't bought that dang BMW I would still be 40, hanging around with fast guys on my bird of prey. Had my Busa 10 years, and I'm amazed every time I ride her.

Going to hit 58 in July - always wanted a Busa and now that the girls are all in high school and beyond it was finally time to get back in the saddle.
Last ride was a 72 Kawi H2 and I took it off the road in 1985 as I was sick of fixing melted pistons. Dug the old licence plate out of the garage and reactivated it a couple weeks ago with a new sticker.
34 years since I'd ridden anything on the road..... I read everything I could about this bike in advance (thank you again fellow HOG members !!) and luckily I felt comfortable after only 15 minutes in C mode (Prius mode as someone noted :)). Sure is nice having a good stable ride and one of those new fangled gear indicators !
