New guy on board, from Southern Indiana
« on: June 26, 2015, 10:40:08 AM »
Well, I have been diagnosed with terminal MBS (multiple bike syndrome), but have found a way to live with it.
Currently have 17 bikes: 3 BMW's, 2 Yamaha's,and the rest Honda's.
Bikes date from a '62 Yamaha 80cc (first bike) to the 08 BMW RT 1200 that's mostly my LD seat.

I got into vintage bikes less that 2 years ago, bought a 1971 Honda CB 175, and spent the winter going "cafe'" on it, next got a 74 360T back on the road, and recently a 76 BMW R90/6 that had not seen hiway for 6 years.
So anyway, just picked up a 73 350F as next in line, soon as the Yamaha DT1 thumper comes off the stand
Looking forward to learning lots from the experts on the forum.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S.

donj,

Welcome from another new guy to the forum.  I too have multiple bike sickness, at least my wife thinks so. Luckily for her(me) I don't have it as bad as you.  Just my '78 CB750K recently acquired and my touring bike, a '09 HD Roadglide.  I had been looking for a beemer airhead, but haven't found the one I want(afford) yet.

'69 CB750 long gone
