    I'm 77 and bought my Triumph Speed 400 a few weeks ago. It's great fun, which a motorcycle should be. I've been riding for 62 years.

    I'm 78, and love my 765RS. It's like Z 400 on steroid. I also own a Ninja 400.

    I’m almost 60 and I chose the svelte Triumph Rocket 3R. It’s lack of weight and lack of aggressive acceleration mean it’s like being on a stairlift. The one in Gremlins. 😂

    Old guys (I am one) will be miserable if the knees are folded up tight and their upper body weight is on their wrists. I had a Kawi 500 Ninja and it was brutal. We need room and an upright stance.

    At 69, I just purchased a new bike after 3 years of taking a break from motorcycles. I got a Kawasaki Z900RS. Not too low so my knees and feet feel cramped up, not too high with a relatively flat seat so I could swing my leg over it, not too heavy at 471 pounds and with the added passenger grab bar I can maneuver it around in the garage. I wanted a simple bike with plenty of power but without the bulk. Those bikes you show with the stepped up passenger seat are impossible to throw my leg over - just too high!

    I’m 61 and have been riding since I was 10. I’m small, 5’1” so I bought the Rebel 500 last year. It’s a blast to ride, fast and nimble. All the upgrades to fuel injection, water cooled, ABS disc brakes. (Beats the rear drum brakes.) Slipper racing clutch. LED light package, digital gauge(gas gauge & clock!!!) Overall a really nice bike to commute to work on. As they say “Fun Size”

    The 20hp of the Royal Hunter on the Royal Enfield 350 would get me killed the first time I tried riding it on the Interstate Highways. Most Royal Enfields are WAY too under powered. Not for me thanks. You would need minimum 500+ cc bike for highway riding.

    I have decades of hard earned experienced but have had a fifteen year break. Looking to pick up another bike but the choice is bewildering. Too many nice bikes I like from all genres. I thought about a Tenere, nice bike but a bit top heavy. Might try a Street Triple but then again, one bike I always wanted was the BMW R1250R. I might just get that and be done.

    I'm a few years younger than you and recently traded my Victory Cross Roads for a Harley Dyna Street Bob . The 820 lbs crossroads was the "Polaris Road King" and I got tired of moving that around in my garage and rarely carry a passenger. The 650 lb Dyna is much easier in a garage, more agile, and very fast. With Thunder Header exhausts, it sounds spectacular.
