Good Day All...
Had been looking for a bike for a while, but since I am now a County Employee, my income is rather humble. As luck would have it, a co-worker was selling his 2008 V-Star 1100 with 2480 miles on it ( yes in 2012 ) for $5,000.
This was do-able and after a short ride I was sold and so was the bike. So as soon as got the bike, I found this site and signed on.
This is the required 1st post so that you will be allowed to contribute to the forum. Lots of good info on this forum, though it does seem that some people have an attitude and don't read very well. But I guess that's the way it is anywhere.
My riding experience includes a hand-built HD hard-tail (back in the 70's), a Kawasaki Vulcan in the mid 80's, a Kawasaki Vulcan from 04 to 2010, and now this V-Star 1100. I have ridden mostly commuting with some regional tours in the Southeast and South. Have done some bike camping and think I may get back into that again.
Looking forward to sharing with fellow riders. 2 Down Brothers.
