Kevlar1957 Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Recently traded for a 1200s, 2003 model with 24k miles. Refreshed carbs, adjusted valves, basic tlc. Previous owner was mechanically challenged. About to replace chain and sprockets. Glad I found this site, good information. I've been riding since 1977, hope to finish my riding career on this bike. It is a blast to ride, love the looks from young guys, when I go around them. 1 Quote

Blubber Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 Hi and welcome to OSS. My dad is from 1947 and still riding his bike. Sounds like you have got some years left Quote

Captain Chaos Posted August 14, 2020 Posted August 14, 2020 My old man is 76 and still riding. 3 years ago he went to Turkey and Iran on an XT600. You don't stop riding when you get old, but you get old when you stop riding 1 Quote
