61yrs old. Just bought a 2014 ES with 9700 miles on it. I also have a 2008 Goldwing that is now for sale. I’m looking forward to seeing where my S10 will take me!

Wondering what sort of age group are attracted to our awesome S10. It's a big bike and can cost a few quid (£/$), which might keep more of the 'kids' away? Interesting to get a feel for who the bike attracts. 8) I'm 43 to start... ;D What's your age? ::017::
Nice post. This fellow is a 2012 site supporter and has made 6 posts.Jim Clark said:I'm 77. MY 2012 S10 has 74000 on it so far. Did the Bun Burner Gold attempt on my 75th birthday and screwed up by following my GPS instead of my planned route. Ended the 24 hours exactly 36 miles short of my 1500. Completed the BBG a few months later successfully. Had another GPS screw up last summer: Followed the Garmin route in the Oregon desert instead of asking directions. It led me down progressively worsening "goat" trails until I got stuck in a rock gully. Walked a few miles till I got a weak cell signal. The 911 dispatcher couldn't figure out where I was, the SPOT emergency service sent a sheriff to the wrong coordinates and finally I called my son who contacted some local miners who found me. Been to all of the continental states and Canadian provinces except Delaware, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Never had a desire to see Delaware. Only a couple of bike problems: The 2 year old battery died in Yellowstone NP and the "tip-over" switch refused to let me start the bike. Found out that the "error code 41" would have identified the switch problem. If only I knew how to access the ECM codes and knew where the damn switch was. It's hidden under the passenger seat very well.
Hi Jeff, I hope all is well. Are you thinking of going to the rally in Tenn? check out Rally post.LousyPups said:58 years.
Pre-ordered a blue 2012 Tenere which now has about 26k miles on it and still looks like it's new. It rarely gets dirty but it's OK if it does, I'll clean it up again.
