    Hi Steve,
    Welcome to the forum from a 56 year old who will soon be waking up to be 57.
    I am sure you will enjoy the bike - I only started riding at 55 and the Bonnie is my first "big" bike and I absolutely love it.
    Weather should be OK I think for next weekend - have fun!

    Welcome to the forum Steve

    Not sure which Honda you had, they are very good bikes, but ... I think you will find that the Triumph has a bit more character.

    I have a friend who has the explorer (I finally got him off the GS's :rolleyes:) and he gets on with it really well.

    Enjoy :biggrin:
