I'm 73 yrs old and just bought a new S40, looking forward to your feedback.
I've ridden everything back in the day.

I am just trying to negotiate thru the site, social media is challenging for seniors.
First bike was in 1962
Ohiomoto, to answer your question my first ride was a 1953 Harley "61"
with foot clutch and 3 speed on the tank. Also had a 650 Triumph back when it was considered a big bike. Later a Honda Shadow......then kids/grandkids
Anyone else out there from Burlington or southern Ontario? I am 60 miles from Buffalo.
