Default older new guy

This looks like a good place. I have an 04 2wd 4.0 ranger. I am a former automotive technician of about 35 yrs. I am a member of the S.O.H.C.4
vintage Honda motorcycle forums. I will for the most part, just be along
for the ride and keep my mouth closed unless I have something respectful
and accurate to add. I respect that there are probably members of all
knowledge/experience levels here and hope to learn, and apply that
knowledge to my Ford. I gotta admit to having a passion for Pontiacs
(real ones) 60's/70's and old Honda Motorcycles. Enough rambling....
I'll take my seat now

Respectful has no place on this forum. You will not fit in with an attitude like that. Accurate is right out also.

Sorry about the whole Pontiac thing. Got any pictures of the bikes?

Oh yeah, maybe the Ranger also.

Had a 92 5.0 for 12 years, now the ranger. Fords are about the only
things still made that have an identity or any "character". IMHO of
course. Thanks to all for the welcome.

Default New B

Welcome Jim, Glad you found us. I have a 1966 CB 450 that my step dad bought in 68, and a CB 750 K4 that i bought in 84. Just sold my 86 Goldwing Interstate since I can't ride anymore. I had xx years prefect attendance, until Jan.30th of 06, when i got crushed in the press at Honda. I ran the 4800 ton press & 30 ton demag over head crain. That was the last day I've worked. Loved my job, looked forwarded going to work. I realy miss the people I work with. Can't feel anything from my shoulder down to my fingers. Have fun & enjoy FRF.
From Don
Grove City, Ohio.

I really need to learn how to reply to multiple posts at one time..
Since I can't yet do that, I will again thank all who have posted so far.
I appreciate the comments
This pic of the ranger is the only one I have at this time. The others
are things I mess with. I don't ride much any more, but can't part with any of them. Each will fit PERFECTLY with gate closed in the Ranger.
Anyway, these are my vices/habits/addictions/sicknesses. And they're all paid for
