[Giles Gant]

Hello all! First time to try posting. Been reading the mail since June 04 when I first bought my 400. I really enjoy everyones post and feel better knowing I have access to so much Burgman knowledge.

I'm located in northwest Alabama. 67 yrs old. Retired. Love rididng my bike. BTW, I traded a GW 1200 Aspencade for the Burg. Improved my riding enjoyment 100%. Before I traded, unless there was a planned trip of 100+miles, the GW sat in the shed and I used the Geo-Metro. Now the Geo-Metro sits in the shed and I use the Burg. Even just going to Wal-Mart or to get a cup of coffee. Especially if just doing these things.

Weather has been bad the last few days and haven't been able to ride. I am going thru withdrawal pains as I write.

Pleasant & safe riding to all.

Hi Giles and welcome to the forum as an active member. :hello2:

I know what you mean about withdrawl symptoms - much longer and I am going to need retraining!

Glad you enjoy it here - lets hear more from you.

Welcome to the BurgmanUSA forums Giles. Glad to have you join us. Nice to see another Burgman rider from my neck of the woods on the forum.

Welcome Giles,

What you said about the Burgman being ridden so much is one of the biggest reasons for my initial consideration of a big scooter. I don't even have one yet and I get withdrawl symptoms when I leave the dealership after looking at them!
