Howdy! I’m also new to this board and thought I would introduce myself.
I just got back into to motorcycling last summer after a 20+ year hiatus. I bought a 1981 1100 Interstate at an auction and installed a used engine in it. I had so much fun with it I decided to buy a new bike. In December I purchased a new yellow (I’ve been told it’s the fastest color) GL1800, I kept it down stairs in the family room until the snow melted.
I’ve put 13,000 miles on the new bike so far and just love it. We’ve taken 1 long trip to the Honda Hoot in Tennessee and several shorter trips into Iowa and all over northern Minnesota.
I did have to replace my tires; the Dunlops were well worn and cupping at 11,500. I replaced them with a new set of Bridgestone’s.
