I am 40, married and living in Lafayette, La.  Began riding about 8 years ago and love it.  Started with a Honda NX650 , moved to a Yamaha V-Star 650, then finally to my Honda VTX 1300R. I just recently painted my headlight shell and side covers and plan on doing my final drive and possiblly air intake and getting black handlebars and exhaust. I enjoy fixing up my bike as much as riding it.  I am a boat captain of 19 years and spend my time either working on my new home or riding my bike.  If you are in the Lafayette area, get in touch and we can set up a ride.
