Hi all
I’m Sue, live in New Zealand and I bought a 1972 Suzuki T500J late last year.
I’ve been riding for about 40 odd years, initially Hondas and Suzukis, then Triumphs and Royal Enfields with the off Ducati thrown in. I got past having the time or inclination to be fixing bikes, so migrated from 70s bikes through to new ones when a new Bonneville T100 took my fancy a few years back.
But I was bowled over by a gorgeous T500J, a ground up rebuild from Connecticut with only 65 miles on the clock - so here I am, as I am likely to need advice from time to time!

Welcome Sue - and any others registering as a new member. I'm currently in the Caribbean on a cruise ship and internet connections are dire, so sorry for any delays!!
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.
