Hello and thank you for the welcome, automated or no. I have just returned to biking after and 8 year break, `i'm old and passed my test in 1984. I have had many bikes over the years from an AP50 'R Reg" to a K100RS with lots of varied stuff in between. I have just bought a new Himalayan and am loving it. I am really enjoying the bimble factor. I have done 500 miles on it so far and intend to do many more before I am too old. I will have some daft questions I am sure but I am looking forward to taking part on the forum.
