Hello!
I was a member about 4 or 5 years ago but let it lapse. I was finally able to get my r1150RT serviced and ready for some proper riding after a few gut punches from life that forced me to set that aside. I am really looking forward to easing my way back into some motorcycle touring. I have a 2004 r1150RT (P) with just under 50,000 miles. I bought it used in 2018 with 14,000 miles. It had overheated from the previous owner lending it to an employee who thought it was a good idea to let it sit in his driveway and warm up since it hadn't been ridden in a while. Lucky for me there was minimal damage from overheating that is mostly cosmetic from the exterior panels getting hot and suffering some discoloration. But now i think I have a great touring machine that will last me a very long time. I also have a 2001 Triumph Adventurer 900 that is not running because it just needs a little TLC. I bought my first bike in 1987 while stationed at Eglin Air Force base, Florida. I took a hiatus for several years but started riding again in 2004ish. I will be sure to read the forum rules and also search for previous posts before posting a question. Its good to be back and be a part of the MOA community!
Cheers!
