Hiya Folks
Hello, obviously new guy here. Just wanted to pop in and introduce myself.
I'm Eric. I recently acquired a 2004 Vulcan 1600 Classic. It was my dad's bike. He got it from a dealership in the NW-Burbs of Chicago back in 2005. He loved to ride. He had BMWs in the 80s, an old sportster in the late 90s. He even had a 19?? VW Trike. He was also a mounted police officer in New Orleans for many years. My dad loved to ride. Unfortunately, he's no longer with us. So here I am, a somewhat green rider, with a 750+lb bike. I learned to ride 20 years ago on a 750 Shadow, so I'm not totally in the dark. So, here I am. Nice to meet ya'll. Pics related- My dad and his favorite hobbies.
