Greetings from Sunny Victoria.  
I've just taken the plunge and acquired a 1984 R65 which I'm smitten with..  [smiley=bmw_smiley.gif]
Running well and just requires some cosmetic updates.

Looking forward to participating and contributing to this fine & worthy community.

Cheers

Charles

Another Aussie! You've got a lot of mates here. Welcome aboard, Charles.

How about a snap or two of your new Airhead. We load photos.

Welcome Charles!

Tell us a bit about yourself! Is this a big bike for you or smaller than normal? What have you ridden before?

And as Monte said (or meant to say) we LOVE pix!  ;)

The R65 is a smaller bike than the rest of my old airheads, but like you, I'm horribly smitten also.

G'day Charlie,  

Welcome to the site.  Lots of good info and a pretty friendly bunch.  Feel free to take the piss 'cause the natives don't bite.  Much.  

I am guessing that this FFR logo indicates a frog background?   ;D

Cheers, Burt.
