    Hello together,
    I am from Southern Germany (Black Forest). Two days ago I got my licence,
    (at the age of 59 years) yesterday I ordered my Street Twin,
    today I joined the community.
    The Street Twin was love on first sight and I am looking forward to my first ride.

    Greetings from the Black Forest

    Hi m'lady!
    Great to see a woman here! Like you, my wife has got a ST too. A great bike and especially with her being a little on the short side.
    I joined today, after you, so I can't say "welcome", but I can sure say HELLO and nice to see you!

    Hello and welcome from the Black Forest !
    I am a little on the short side as well but I am confident that the height of the seat will fit. My heels touched nearly completely the ground. If that will not be enough, I still have the chance to lower the fork in front and the shock-absorbers in rear for one up to two inches. Ride safe.

    Hello,

    this will be my dream-bike. At the moment it is at the dealer's to get her throttled down to 35 kw/48 hp.

    Greetings

    Hi, I've got a Street twin. Good bike, but I found tyres crap on bad roads. 'Tram lining'. Changed mirrors to 'teardrop'. Fitted Fox shocks. Fitted ace bars. I have a Thruxton 1200, and I shouldn't compare but, it's a better ride.

    I've put Avon Rodriders on mine. Definite improvement.
