Well, I've been looking over the site for a week or two now. Seems it's time to introduce myself.
I'm a new rider, from upstate New York (Albany is not upstate).
I finished the MSF two day course and set out to find a bike. The local Harley dealer had a 2007 C50 with 8000 miles on it. I was immediately drawn to it.
Turns out, it was a great deal. I love the bike. It came with a switchblade windshield installed. As well as the popular mustang seating for driver and passenger, including backrests for both.
Welcome, I was just in Plattsburgh a couple of weeks ago. Is that upstate? Driving around Lake Champlain I took a wrong turn and almost needed to speak french. You have nice country up there.
Congratulations! You made a great choice for a first bike. It was mine too. I've been riding 4 years and just this year got the itch to upgrade. I'm keeping my Volusia though.
Thank you, everyone. I'm loving my C50. It seems I've stirred up interest in my family, as well. My wife has her permit now. We pick up her gz250 on Wednesday. My mother-in-law is thinking about trading her rebel 250 for an S40.
I'm having trouble searching the forum. Does anyone have experience with tapatalk? I can't figure out how to search the entire site. I have to search each subforum individually.
Nice to have family to ride with. Only way I'll get my wife off the back of my bike is if I bought her a CanAm :surprise:
I don't have any experience with Tapatalk. I use the Google search function in the upper right of any forum page. That's the best way I've found to search.
Thanks Jm, I might just have to use the mobile site. I have some basic questions that I'm sure have answers already and don't want to flood the forum with them.
Thanks Moenko. Although, I can see the Vermont coast from my driveway. Even lived there for a few years. I still tease my family over there, that they're really New Yorkers due to Vermonts secession.
