Total Motorcycle Community Forums

I'm considering a ride from Oregon to Massachusetts (& back). I ride a Honda VT 1100 Shadow Sabre. I'd appreciate any suggestions about luggage, routes, preventive maintenance, any helpful ideas. I'm a geezer, if that matters. Thanks in advance.

Any suggestion abouit how to use the cruiser metric mirror adapters? Guess I'm a moron but I don't see how they fit.

Thanks, Monk

I really appreciate the comments, encouragement and suggestions. I didn't expect so much. Have a feeling I've found a great site and avocation, if I pass the safety class). So thanks to all of you.

I'm a geezer (65), have never ridden but am taking motorcycle safety class this weekend. If I pass then of course I wonder about my first bike -- at my age the first one I get may be my last. Any other codgers out there with advice?
