  Hi All,
             My name is Ron, nickname Harro. I live at Blackalls Park NSW.  I have not long bought a 1990 ST1100 silver in colour.
      I am 63 years young and am currently on P plates but not for long as i get my full licence on 3rd May. Cant wait for that as i have been sneaking rides around the block on the ST. Great Bike,has 142,000 on clock but been looked after! I am a late starter to motorbike riding but i am really enjoying it,
 should have done it years ago! I can cross it off the bucket list though! Looking forward to going on a ride with you Guys sometime.
                                                                         Regards. Harro

Welcome aboard Ron, this is a great place to be, enjoy. When you can, get  to some of the the RTE that are available to you, and meet some of the local members . Annual Rally in Toowoomba next March maybe see you there?    :wht11

Welcome Harro. You're preaching to the converted here. We all love the ST. I found mine 7 years ago but wish it had been a whole lot earlier.
Enjoy the forum.
Cheers.
