Welcome Gonchy - I think you might be the first member from Bolivia and we look forward to you being a part of this international team.

I hope to see some photos of your bike and of your country.
Which model / year bike do you have and how long have you owned it?

If you have not already done so you can download the manuals and some "HOW TO"'s from the links below.

Regards....

Welcome to the forum Gonchy. Some great roads in Bolivia for the CBR1000F to stretch its legs on

I rode through your beautiful country about 10 years ago on a Honda Africa Twin 750.

Fantastic ride through a fantastic country.

Ask any questions you need as we enjoy keeping these beautiful bikes on the road, and there is a vast amount of knowledge and experience on the forum. And when you can, post pictures of your bike.

Cheers, SB

My inability to get "Café con leche" in South America for a month ten years ago led to me drinking black coffee since that time, Woof! And I didn't eat Guinea Pig - they're too cute.

Again welcome Gonchy!

Cheers, SB

Good to hear Gonchy - and many of us have had people talk to us who don't believe our bikes are about 20 years old.

Anything you need, just post and we'll see what is possible.

Cheers, SB

I went to a Bolivian restaurant outside of D.C. a few years back. Bolivian rice is the best. Short grained, light and sweet.

Glad to read you, you are welcome to visit Bolivia whenever you want to come for vacation, I can help you and guide you to know many places, and if you want we can find some bikes to ride all around, many people here makes trips around Bolivia, or maybe you can bring your own Motos, you need 1000 $us for the sending and returning By container and sea. Thanks for the HOW TO.

Talking New member: Think I'm starting to grow "old"!

Hello people, my name is Jack and I am from Montreal, Canada. I just bought a 1994 CBR 1000F with 39,000 km on it. Sold my 1998 Shadow 1100 Tourer. Like my son said to me: "Dad, now I know it's true what they say: when folks get older, they start acting like kids."
But hey! what can I say, I've been riding for 40 years now and this is only my second sport/touring bike. Fell in love as soon as I saw it. The only other sport bike I had was a 1972 Suzuki GT750 2 stroke, a real pole climber if you didn't know how to treat it.
Anyways, I'm really looking forward to reading all of you guys posts and comments and what not and hope to make a few friends on the way.
Have a super day everybody.
