    Since there's no button for us in their 60's I guess I'll just sit over here in the corner and watch the fun.

    (wish I were under 20 but that ain't gonna happen)

    No place for me to cast my ballot...

    But in my mind: I'm still only about eight years old anyway!

    By not having a selection for 60 year olds, is this a case for age discrimination?

    Cool How old are you

    I don’t think age matters. It’s all about the “ride.” I go my RT because it is so cool looking. Once I rode one I was sold. The Vvvrrrooommm, and comfort, not to mention the 40 plus mpg are incredible. Even makes my Gold Wing look like a toy. It all comes down to, you get a machine for the type of riding like.

    Default A couple of quotes from Gran Torino come to mind...

    Duke:What you lookin' at old man?
    Walt Kowalski:Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn't have screwed with? That's me.
    (except he didn't say "screwed")

    Walt Kowalski
    :Take these three items, some WD-40, a vise grip, and a roll of duct tape. Any man worth his salt can fix almost any problem with this stuff alone.

    Walt Kowalski
    :[sneering and aiming his gun]Get off my lawn!

    Maybe leaving the 61-70 year olds out was a planned move on Beaudog's part...... could it be that he didn't want to skew the results too far towards that age-group??

    Default Age is just a number

    I'm 75 and just got a 2015 black F3. First thing I had to do was get the footpegs moved from #1 to #4, much more comfortable now. This is my first 3 wheeler after owning many 2 wheelers, so far I'm loving it! :-)

    It must be because there are a lot of people in that group that can't be categorized.

    If you're over 50 you're not stupid, just forgetful like all the rest of us old farts!!!

    Send a PM to Lamont. He can delete it and then you can start over! Or if you want, he can edit a new choice into it for you. From what I find vBulletin forum s/w doesn't allow regular users to edit polls, only administrators.
