Showed me a lot of things I did wrong back when. Got my 2002 at a dealership here in town and just love it. Paid a little too much, but it's all good. I'm definitely not a wrencher, but I'll be doing my first oil and filter change soon. Happy, safe riding!
Welcome aboard! You did roughly twice as long as I did. I stayed away for a little over 14 years, though now I'm not sure how. I did the same thing and took the MSF course. I thought it was an excellent refresher and believe it's a good idea for both new and returning riders. There are a lot of really good folks on this board. I've learned a heck of a lot from them and expect to learn more. Besides being a great knowledge base, they're a pretty good community.
