Well right on guys! Good to see ya here.

I'm headin' out tomorrow to ride the Roadie about 250 miles somewhere into the AZ desert. Rode up to one of the lakes today and had a hell of a New Years Eve.

Must be nice to rie the desert for the day! It is 50+ degrees here today, but raining buckets!

Always a pleasure to run in to other Roadies! Hope to check ou this forum in more detail over the next couple of days. I'll be posting my intro here later tonight.

The Road Star is my favorite of the Japanese v-twins, and the only one I seriously considered getting vs a Harley.

I think they used the Crocker engine as the styling inspiration for their v-twin:

Yep... There are any number of fine metric bikes, but the only one that's really ever rung my bell is the RS Warrior... though Josh's VTX is a good looker too. Just realy like those fat pushrod tubes!
