| Welcome to the forum Grumpy.
You'll find that while we sometime seem to be a refuge for obstinate gits here, you are in good company and we all do enjoy our Silverwings.

| WelcomeGrumpy13, I have a 16year old Burgman400 as well as my 2014 Silver wing( my second Silver wing). I use my Burgman more in the winter and for journeys of fifty miles or less. Hope you enjoy your Silver wing and have many trouble free rides. |

| Welcome to the best SWing forum on the net Grumpy. I have an 08 SWing that I like a lot and ride whenever weather permits. I'm getting close to 70 years old and am now pretty much a fair weather rider. The rain and cold don't appeal to me all that much anymore. If I get caught in the rain that's one thing but I won't volunteer to go out in it on purpose. |

| Welcome from Texas I'm sort of new to the s wing and scooters in general, but my 2012 is a nice do it all bike I was looking at a VFR700, but when I thought about that 32 year old electric fuel pump (on a carbureted bike) and what a mess getting the carbs out for cleaning was, plus the trans that poped out of 1st, I decided that bike wasn't a good idea |

| Welcome aboard grumpy13! I'm not sure about Cosmic Jumper's calling some of us obstinate gits. Must be referring to meldrew. I prefer being referred to as a contrarian codger or a curmudgeon. |
