    Hi Folks and thanks for having me join your group. Last evening, I made agreement to purchase a 2023 T120 from a private owner.

    I feel as if I'm coming full circle as I started my road bike experience on a 1974 Bonneville 650. I loved that bike and to this day, I have such fond memories of riding the Blue Ridge Parkway in VA with absolute joy.

    Now, 66 years and live in Bend, OR. Over the years, multiple bikes have come and gone and currently riding a 2015 BMW R9T. I've had my eyes on a T120 for several years and just looking for the right colorway to add to the stable.

    The bike is located in San Jose, so arranging pick up in a week or two. I'll post up pics soon.

    Good to be back!

    @TelemarkTumalo Welcome to the family. Do enjoy the new bike when you get it. I am sure you will be quiet impressed by the T120 just remember its not a 650
