Since they changed the board, I've not been able to ge back on, I'm not the sharpest spoon in the drawer but I've finlay got them to give me back my old name and password. After 33 years of MaMa riding behind me , she has decided she wanted her own bike. OOOKKKAAAYYY?
So she took the course a MetroTec and passed, she's never driven a MC in her life, must have watched me closer than I thought? So I put her on a VTX 1300c, too big you say for a beginner, not so in her case. Took 2 months of controlled practice, she hit the road and has put 1500 miles on, onthe road last fall. She is waiting for spring, as in temps above 60 degrees. Now if I can get her joined up on the board I'll have her post a picture of her pride and joy.
I have hit 71,000 on my beast, 25,000 on the GYTT , car tire for the new people, runing great.

Welcome back Doug. Hard to believe you already have 25k on that tire. I remember you putting that on and it don't seem like it was that long ago..My wife had not ridden a bike in over 30 years. When she went looking it was the 1300 she picked and I been putting chrome on it since for her.. I wish she would quit looking at different bikes when we go places. I think she has over 6k on her bike now and loves it.

Its not 25000 but 15000 on the tire , I didn't pay attention I was so happy to get back on the board. Thanks for catching that mistake, I ride daily but not quite that much.

Doug.
