Hello everybody and thanks for the opportunity to be a member of this forum. I just started riding again after 25 years and a poor choice I made in buying my entry bike to begin riding again. I started riding at 21 and my first bike was a BSA A10 Super Rocket. After many Hondas, a Norton Commando, and my last bike a Honda V65 Magna I stopped riding and got my dream car, a Corvette. Sold the Vette about 3 years ago and last year got the itch to ride again. So at 75 I purchased my dream bike, a 2017 Harley Davidson Ultra Limited with 2.600 miles on it.
I discovered almost immediately it was too much bike for me. I did not take into consideration the monster that 950 pounds actually is and my abilities at my age. Long story short, about 3 weeks ago I traded the Ultra (still with 2,600 miles on it) for a new 2022 Tri-Glide and am back in the saddle again. I love the bike but need to make a few aesthetic changes so my back continues to be my friend. I have put a back rest on it and now need to find the right extended reach bars.
