    Newbie here, Bought my first 21st Century motorbike last July, a Tiger 1050. Love it and quite a change from my 1980 Suzuki GS850G that I've been running for the last 37 years. Thought I'd sign up to this forum so I could learn a few things from you young guys. Cheers

    Is it me or when you get older - if you cough or sneeze - you also fart. Only me? Welcome to the forum......

    The "Rules of 50 +" (years old, that is) :-

    1) NEVER pass by a urinal

    2) HONOUR all hard ons

    3) TREAT all farts with the utmost suspicion

    Sorry, is this straying somewhat off topic? It's an old person thing .......

    Welcome aboard Steve, hope you enjoy this "youngens" forum :joy:, glad you're enjoying the Tiger, the old GS has done you proud, you must have racked up a few miles on the old girl.

    That's why I have a nurse as a partner. She slips the old meds into my dinner. And smiles while I eat well its either keeping me young or she's after the insurance. But I guess I would have to agree with all you have said.
    Ride safe and take you pills
    Joe.

    Good morning and welcome in. One of, if not my favorite bikes, was my 1981 gs850g. I bought it brand new, 2 years old from Memphis Suzuki on Elvis Presley Blvd. Man that brings back good memories!
