I'm still here too .
First bike was a Honda 250 XL/S (on-off road) rode that for a few years. Someone I knew had a basket case Norton with a combat motor, bought it put it back together and rode it for a few years also. stopped riding for awhile until I was driving by a motorcycle shop and saw a Triumph banner flying , stop in and saw an America, asked if they had a black one, he yes in the back. Picked it up next weekend. that was in 2004. Lurked on here for awhile and joined in 2009.
