That is a great bike. I had a 78 I bought in a box for 200 bucks and just put it back together and rode it for about two years and sold it for a thousand. It had a 16" rear tire and 6" over forks. Its was cool.

Re:Age 5 Years, 7 Months ago  
Well Ladies and Gentlemen here is the latest and I added 2 years because of the age of this thread.

Latest Avg up to jvmbike Pg. 45

331 = People adding up to 15,806 (add 2 years/662/16,468) years.
15,806 divided by 331 == 47.75 Years Average Age of Riders. (49.75 adding an avg of 2 more years)

Oldest Riders (we have a tie) at a young 74 is LOADMASTER and OldBritGit (may you have many more years Brothers )

Youngest Rider at an old 23 is RoadHammer

Seems that alot of us went on an average hyatis of 15-25 years untill getting back in the saddle. Guess raising the kids were important to us. Most of us grew up on dirt bikes/enduros/mini bikes and graduated onto bigger and better bikes.

Re:Age 5 Years, 7 Months ago  
Just saw this thread and thought I might be able to bring down the average I'm 29. Oldest bike I ever owned was a '78 GS1000. It was a POS! Owned 5 superbikes, mostly R1's. Lived to tell the stories and finally made the jump to my Roadie last year and I never looked back. Put 12k miles on it in the year that I've owned it (and I drive a company truck, so I've never driven it to work!)

Re:Age 5 Years, 7 Months ago  
Looks like I am average! 49. My first car was a Honda......CL175. Could not afford a car, so I mowed yards and bought the bike so I could get to school and soccer practice and not have to ride the bus! Got a Yamaha 400 Special II in college then didn't get my next bike for 20 years when I got a V Star 1100 in '01. Sold that bike last week, two days after picking up an '04 Road Star. Found this forum and have spent way too much money personalizing my bike.....really need to stop visiting this site!

Re:Age 5 Years, 7 Months ago  
Im an old 25.... lol. Been riding dirt bikes since I was about 13. Trails and MotoCross. First street bike was an 07 GSXR 750. It was stolen when I moved down to Columbus. Just stuck with my MotoX bike for awhile and then found a steal on a 2001 800 intruder. Then sold that for a nice profit a week later and got a 2000 1100 shadow. Sold that for another good profit a few months later and then got me the Roadie for a steal about a month or so ago... (ever seen barter kings.... im working on it)
