New here;
Name is Don aka MrEd
Located in Albany, Oregon
Recently purchased a 2008 R12R loaded with bags, trunk, 2 windscreens, crash bars, ondash computer and some other stuff.
I am the 3rd owner and the bike came with 3,800 miles. All services and recall updates were done.
I used this site to help with my buying decision.

Thanks
Don

I know a bunch of people that have had you make seats for them. I'm comfortable on my 2012 seat as it seems pretty good for a stocker but I have a long trip coming up next month and if the seat doesn't do the trick I'll likely be down to see you.

Welcome!

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects handlebars to the saddle.

Welcome aboard Don!
I visited Albany Oregon a couple of times on business in October 2011. Nice town you got there. The downtown area is rather nice with some nice eats and drinks. Didn't have much time to do either of those with my work schedule. :( Maybe another time.

You'll like this bike. It does everything.
