54 and two months into my brand new 2012 CBR1000RR, magic ride. My first super-sport was a new CB1100R-D in the 80's and the changes to the bikes since then are amazing, 40+ kg's lighter than the older 1100, a bucket load of electronics on the newer bikes but two things have remained the same; the exhilarating ride and the ludicrous stock gearing, 160 km/h in first gear, come on Honda, where on the street is that of any use??

Well... I'm 42 this month (August) and I am really enjoying my 600... My intentions are definitely to hone my skills on it for a while longer then some day maybe next year or the year after...

Ahhhhhhh Yeah!

Default 71 & enjoying it...

71, own a 2014. Great bike. Had to lower footpegs and raise seat to get knees to fit but small price to pay.
