I hadn't ridden in over twenty years when I bought my America. I rode it off the dealers lot in a downpour thunderstorm (happens alot in Florida!) and haven't regretted one second in the saddle. That was over 9000 miles ago. I spent that first day (a Sunday) at a large open parking lot just getting used to the feel of the bike. I arrived home a few hours later with a grin that just keeps coming back every time I climb onto the bike. I'm willing to bet you'll love the bike too. Have fun!
