Hi Rick,
Welcome to the forum, hopefully we'll catch up on a central coast ride some time. There are a few of us in the general Central/Mid north coast area.

Hi Rick, nice part of the world to go riding. Interesting that you have moved from an 1150 RT, always good to know the reasons as may help others researching bikes.

Hi Rick.
Wounded refugees from the BMW fraternity are always welcome when they see the error of their ways.
You'll love the ST's reliability.  And everything else about it, of course!

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

G'day Rick and welcome 2 ozSTOC from the Gong (capital of the NSW South Coast) - there's a little ride planned 4 next March to a little town called Perth WA 4 a quick cuppa'n'chat. Or, u can meet your local STriders at an RTE (RideToEat) that occur on a regular basis and r listed at this thread:


http://ozstoc.com/index.php?board=23.0


It should'nt b long b4 a local ride is posted there and if that doesn't happen fast enough, suggest a destination yourself and u will b surprised at the positive responses u get from the many friendly STriders in your region.
BTW the red STriders r the pieswallowingest.  :hatwave
