    Hello all.
    I've been riding for 38 years but this is my first V-4.
    Found a like-new 2010 with 5500 miles on it with OEM bags and center stand here in San Antonio and snapped it up. Already ordered a Fenda Extenda and Z-Bomb for it. I lean more toward sport than touring but love both.
    Previously tried a riding buddy's 2010 with PC V and it was AWESOME.
    Not scary fast like the R-1 but locomotive fast.
    Looking forward to all the great info and camaraderie here in the forum.
    Also looking forward to continuing regular trips to the Ozarks, now on the Veeffalo.
    Love the feel of this V-4.
    Why didn't I do this before ?:cool:

    Congratulation on your new ride. There are a handful of members here ride the 1200
    Zen moto and dangerous Dave and many other did a few mod to the bike. Do the search on 7th gen section.

    Thanks Scubalong.
    Love the avatar.
    I think the average age for the 7th Gen is little greater than the guys on the R-1 forums and about the same as the C-10 forums. Meaning its right up my alley.
    Didn't mean in my initial post that speed is all the Veeffalo is about (but it don't hurt).
    This bike has everything that I'm looking for in a modern ST and I couldn't be more bored by the new FJR.

    I agree, this bike is a lot of fun. I get cranky if I have to go without for a day.
