    Hi, Thanks for letting me join.
    I am early sixties and used to commute to work and back starting about 20 years ago on a xs650 which I sold about 10 years ago when I became my wife's carer.
    Then as a fulltime carer after a while and to not go crazy, I decided to build a cafe racer but found the typical bikes that were suitable were over my budget.

    Long story short bought a $500 sv650 finished the cafe racer about a year ago which I just started to use when the family bought me a fairing I had been looking at. Good gift but reality was a complete redo, custom tank dropping the bars even lower and numerous other changes. It's still in bits.

    So I bit the bullet and bought a bike I can not chop up and change, just maintain and ride.
    A low mileage 2013 Kmco Venox to ride and refresh/improve my skills which have never been great.
    I suppose it's just to make me feel good, Now you know. Thanks again.
