Hey Red, welcome to the site.
We are a small bunch but fairly socially acceptable in public (I can only speak for myself of course).
Pics of your bike would be cool when you get a chance.

Hi all, call me Red if you'd like. South Texas Hill Country. Married with three boys. I started riding on the street when I was 21, stopped for 4 years after I had my lower spine fused. Couldn't stay away, rebuilt a BMW R1200C I found in a shed. After a 400+ mile ride through deep south Texas I went shopping for something a little more my size. I'm 6'3" so I started looking for a Mean Streak, ended up with a Marauder with only 6k on the dial about a month ago. Happy to have found some like minded people. Welcome from New Hampshire Red! Great to have you in here and I think you'll find the actual Meanie Knowledge Base in here is about as good as it gets!

Hi guys, foreman here or Chris. I live in upstate/western NY. Love the state, hate the politics lol. Single dad to my 16 year old son and 14 year old daughter. Awesome kids. Been riding 25ish years. First bike was an 81 Cb750F Super Sport. Sold my virago 700 i customized for my 2003 Dark metallic purple meanstreak with 9K on it. That was 4ish years ago. First bike i've owned when i go in the garage and look at it, i smile every time. Absolutely love the bike. It's going through quite an overhaul this winter, just because! I'll post some pics when i get a chance!

(Prolly not, but I would put a sleeping bag under her in the den) I rode quite a few bikes before I made my re-entry into riding after about a 40 year absence. The Harleys and other used bikes were nice, but one ride on that Meanie and there was no question that Bike was going to be mine. Every single time I back her out of the garage, check everything and get rolling down the driveway, my mind sweeps all the bullshit clutter from everyday life out of me...I break into a big smile and open her up just a little. Then I come alive! Better then any drug I ever tried.

Finally went out and knocked the dust off of her, it's been an unusually rainy year here.
