From old to new... But I am keeping the old

[Oranator]

Hi My name is Oran and I own an Indian.
It's been 7 days since my last ride.......
.
The bike is getting a new top end again 1944 Chief, my mechanic says I really shouldn't ride my 75 year old bike at 75 mph, but what does he know?
I have been riding since I was 7 and most of that on an Indian, I have test rode the new line up and none of them wow'ed me enough to switch... Until I sat on the FTR now it's all I think about.
I am here to find the hop ups and how to get the power/sound up as well as license plate holder and all the other little things I plan on doing to my bike.. When I buy it. For now it's just planning.

Never hear about other people's opinion about age and that you should pilot (or not) because it is a very subjective matter.
In Switzerland you can find bikers who are 75 years old and drive a BMW S1000RR hyper sport (200hp and 200 kg) or people of 65 years old who drive Ktm 1290 Adventure.
Live your dreams and do what you fancy.
