Hello Ezio and welcome, Glad to see you ride one of the finest bikes around. I think you are the first person living in Italy to post on this forum in a long time. Where in Italy are you from?

Welcome Ezio,

But a word of warning, which will quickly become self-evident. BA.com is sometimes known as Geezer/Geezerette site, as the are bikes ridden by folks 2X+ your age.

They are mostly a harmless lot, given to delusion regardng their riding abilities and questionable good looks 20-30 years ago. Just think of Grumpy Old Men on proper verticle twin motorcycles

I could go on, but can already hear the rattling of dentures in bedside drool cups as members prepare to face the day

Hey man, you are supposed to leave that for him to figure out on his own.

Don't worry about the old guys Ezio, they're just jealous! Welcome to the forum!


Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Welcome Ezio and Merry Christmas! Your English sounds good to me.

Welcome Ezio. I used to live in southern Italy, back in the 1980's. What region are you from?

Welcome to the site, Ezio. Don't worry about the English. There are a lot of people on here who can't really say their English is that good, as well as one member who speaks "dwightish". You'll be fine, and we hope to see you here often.
