[Richard Loraas]

Hello everyone,

I am new to this web site and I just wanted to introduce myself to all of you. My name is Richard and I live in beuatiful Quebec City, Canada. I own a Burgman 650 (blue) which I purchased last falll, and therefore my 650 is in strorage until at least the end of April 2005. I cannot wait for the day that I can get it out. I was really glad to find this web site. I was just browsing differrent web sites and I found this one. I cannot believe the amount of information that is on it and the amount of knowledge that everyone has about their particular vehicle. It has given me a lot of information to read and help me get through these winter months. I am also excited because I am going to a bike show here in Quebec City tomorrow to see what is new for 2005. I am 53 years old and I was lucky enough to retire last year. Beside the 650 my hobbies include golf and downhill skiing. I guess that is about all for now and I look forward to joining in on some conversations. Thank you in advance for all of the great information and especially to those you have taken the time to build and maintain this web site. :lol:

Steve - its funny you should say that, some people cannot abide drinking Gin neat and are quite indifferent to tonic - but mix em together and they quite enjoy a few glasses. So try combining these two sports it may make the golf aspect more palatable. :lol:

Greetings Richard and welcome to the forums. I too enjoy chasing that stupid white ball around an open field or sandy beach. If you figure out how to mount the clubs to the Burgman let me know so I can combine golfing and riding. Hmmmm I wonder if the course would buy the idea that the Burgman is the newest rage in personal Golf carts?

Hi Richard! Welcome to the forums!

I'm just living vicariously through the forums right now...don't have a scooter yet.

So...enjoy yours when the weather permits!

So Norm, now you've got me thinking . . .

Bigger sweet spot on the K2's? Wood, or Iron? Perhaps the answer is - DIMPLES! :shock:
