Always remember, When you are over the hill you just pickup speed. Trying to remember which side the footbrake is on can get exciting though!!

Further to spoiling an already soured demographic?
In recent years I'm down to nearly 5K miles/month Avril to October-November. In 2007, a truly winterless winter, i.e. no insulated boots or heavy coats, I rode more than 300 mi. every week, Dec. to Mar. I'm hopeful for this year, although both hips have been hollering at me for years. A carefully adjusted V7III helps. I'll be 85 later this year.

I was about your age when I first fell for the Guzzis... sadly it was just this year at 53 when I got one!!!

Better late than never!  :grin: Congrats on the Guzzi :)

I've had two now, a V11 LeMans and a Breva 750, got my first one in January of 2011... so I was 21 at the time of my first Guzzi!

I really miss riding, but right now my living situation is uncertain... so I'm holding off a bit. Maybe a V85 variant is in my future?

LOl...that's why you're asking about clip-ons, and not more comfy seats and top boxes!

You should see some of the gear I have lol, need to get some pics of me actually on my bike with it. Kinda hard to do when you work on your bike more than you ride it  :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Unkept. (love your handle).
Thanx. But as they say; Not my 1st rodeo. Been riding for almost 70 years. Have eight more 2 & 4 strokes of other brands: V50 III, V65 Lario, 93 Daytona, Aprilia RS125, Gilera CX125, GB500TT, T500 Café racer. All plated and road worthy, except the T500.
Many other 2 strokes and bmw's in the past.  Good fortune,  R3~

46 here.

Mentally? Still 26. According to others, I'm either "young at heart" or "immature"... depends on who you are and how much you like me, I guess.
Old enough to say I've done it, young enough to do it again.

My average age is 59.  I'm 59 and I'm average.  Median age? my median has gotten so wide lately I don't know if I can measure it.  You know, space contraction and time dilation happens when your median expands really quickly.  Where's my quantum tape measure?

I wasn't replying to your comment, ha! I was responding to s1120.  :grin:

That's a sweet collection of bikes you've had. I would love to ride pretty much all of those! Good taste.
