Welcome. I did the same thing. A Honda ?175 then a CB360 around 30+ years ago then 4 years ago bought a 85 Virago XV700 and completly redid it. Have had my 08 Aero 750 for a couple years now and will keep it as long as i can still ride.

I too just got back to riding after 20+years, also bought the r/s, don't forget the 600 mile breakin period, just like a new car. I like its retro look and feel, the more i ride it the more i dig it. Even the seat, quite uncomfortable at first gets better as it breaks in. Alot of us are trying to convinc corbin to make an aftermarket seat. Cobra has some sissybars for our bike, Big Bike parts has a fitment diagram for shadows on their website, and show chrome accessories sells a highbar for our bike. Welcome.
