I am an older fellow of 77 yo, looks like past my golden biking years. I had numerous motorcycles, but BMWs were always my favorites and they never failed me. I as much enjoy doing my own maintenance as I enjoy the riding - in fact I am just getting ready to overhaul my forks (seals and bushings), not critical yet but needs to be done.
I am member on other RS forums, but finding out this one being most active.
BMW R1200RS for touring, Royal Enfield Int 650 for rural and secondary roads.

Welcome to the Forum Community! And from New Brunswick no less. I spent many years in Saint John and both my kids were born there.
Glad to hear that you find this Forum Community as being more active, and I like to think that it is active with more useful content. I much prefer less traffic if the traffic trade-off is good quality (i.e. actually useful) as opposed to only banter about off topic issues. Even better is that you like to work on your bikes ... maybe you can share your projects and experiences as you work on your RS.
Regards,
