Hello all,
New member here from Round Rock, Texas, just outside of Austin. Long retired, 70-something, and with way too much time on my hands. I'm fighting boredom and feeling the urge to return to riding. It's been about 15 years since my last bike. I was recently reassured that it's, "just like riding a bike." Ten years ago I was so sure I would never ride again that I traded my truck in for a CRV (Austin traffic.) I've just had a hitch installed on the CRV, and I think I'll be ok hauling a bike on a small U-Haul bike trailer. I'm working on buying a not-so-local 1980 R65. Not nuts about the Pichler fairing, and will want to take that off and source parts to return it to a naked bike. Not sure what all that will entail, but I guess I'll find out.
Other than occasionally riding friends' bikes in the past, I'm new to BMW's, and looking forward to getting back on the road. (Although I admit I'm looking around town for a big empty parking lot to practice in.) Thanks for the add.
Tom
