Hello from the Carolinas

I stumbled upon this forum recently but am glad I did.
Having rode a dirt bike (Yamaha YZ125) for a couple of years as a teenager, the motorcycle bug never really left me. Recently I have managed to get back into riding, but this time on a street bike vs. dirt.
Although I plan to ride with friends on some weekends, my real purpose for getting a motorcycle was to use to commute the almost 70 miles each way commute I have (I live in SC but work in NC). While I know I won't ride every day, I will ride as much as I reasonable can. With that purpose in mind I purchased a 1994 Honda Pacific Coast - from what I've read it's a bike designed by Honda to be used as a commuter that requires very little maintenance.
I look forward to gaining some more knowledge from the information of the members here, and to hopefully seeing some of you on the road one day!
Ride safe.
