    Hello From Tulsa

    Hello: Thanks for letting me join the site. Like the name of the site. Have been riding motorcycles since before a lot of you were born. Still have a lot to learn. The first bike I ever rode was a 45 cubic inch flathead Harley. I have owned a BSA 650, a Harley Sportster, two Kawasaki KZ 900s, Yamaha (250) and Kawasaki (400) dirt bikes, three Hondas (a 305 Super Hawk, a 750-4, and a CBR 1000RR), and an '08 Hayabusa (my present bike). Love canyon carving and cruising.

    Welcome 65. This is one venue where we can celebrate your decades-long addiction with no apologies and a good conscience!

    Now, I'm guessing the '65 hemi in question was a 'cuda?

    65

    Thank you. No, it is a 1965 Plymouth Belvedere I Super Stocker clone with a 547 cubic-inch full roller hemi in it. Not for the faint of heart.
    BTW, love those VFRs.

    Welcome, hemi. If you ever feel like really carving up some corners I'd be glad to meet up with you @ Hallett. Seeing as you're from Tulsa you may already know of the great track in your back yard.

    It's a toss-up. Too close to call.
