New Northwest Arkansas

Hows it going? It has been 19 years that I was without a bike, the woman I married about 17 years ago, I allowed to keep me off of one.. You know,I compromised with her.. Well it has been about 11 years since our divorce. I finally got recovered from that and found a KZ1000 LTD that I liked the style of on ebay last year.. I bought it, flew there to pick it up, and rode it back in the rain..When I test rode it, it was like I was back home.. The way it felt was like when I was younger and riding that style and type..
I rode it back from Virginia, in the rain.. It rained pretty much all the way back. I didn't care I was were I had wanted to be for so long and the bike is mainly set up how I like it.. It needs an extended swingarm and some other minor changes, but I am getting back into the swing of the big old KZ's I love..
Like I said, I have been out of the KZ seen for a long time. There are alot of things that have changed, since I have owned one and new technology. I will have alot of questions and hope I don't pester too much.
Glaad there is a sight here like this and thank you for allowing me in!!

Welcome home! That long ride in the rain is what's known as "the good ride" because you'll always remember it. Ed
