Post by Bobh »

I've been lurking for a couple years, decided it was time to join in. Currently have a 1977 gl1000, 1975 Triumph T160 Trident, and a 1991 BMW k100lt. I purchased the gl1000 as a supposedly running bike, fixed everything the previous owner had worked on, and have been riding it for the past two summers. Lots of good information on this site has helped me a bunch.

Ah yes, a Trident! I went down the Limey path some years ago… OK many years ago. Couple of triumphs, couple of nortons. New England was a great place for those bikes.

Always enjoyed those times.

Enjoyed this joint. It's a pretty good little spot.

Wow! did that ring a bell. I got a '75 Ol'wing last December, and I am still fixing stuff that was supposed to be fixed. Hoping to get it on the road in the next few weeks.

Welcome from East Texas. Bud...
Time for another Road Trip...
