Usa newbie to this forum
Hey all . I'm a 59 yr old , old school biker who has only lately discovered this site . Long time britbiker ( Nortons ) currently riding an sv650 set up as a strpped down tricked up streetfighter . Also currently building a 73 T120RV streettracker . Have owned over the years 14 bikes and my favorites are the 73 Norton and the SV650 . Dream bike has always been a Vincent Black Shadow but that'll never happen as the collectors have discovered them ! Sorry about the length of this self-centered rant , but I thot it incumbent to introduce myself .

Re: Usa newbie to this forum
Welcome!!!
.... from the other US rider on here. A former BSA rider in Virginia. This is a great forum where people actually ride bikes and offer good advice, etc.... as well as being a likeable bunch. (for the most part) Unlike the constant whining and drivel that seems to dominate most US forums.

LOL Welcome to the site Svsmokey, unfortunately my SV is mostly red (has a blue fairing at the moment) but my Z750 is the one true colour
