Ronn has a way with words....
so I'll let him tell ya a little about himself
This is what he had to say:

I live in sunny San Diego - ride almost every day. 
Love cruising the coast, mountains, desert - down to San Filipe in Mexico.
I've been riding for a little more than 30 years.
Hit by a bus in '71 (my bass player's Honda - boy was he pissed!) 
and dumped another one once in the rain ('79). otherwise been real lucky.
Many bikes: Triumph Bonneville, several Kawasaki Triples (H2 -
smoked like a 10-cent cigar, had lousy brakes but was a Sportster killer off the line), 
couple of  Kawasaki GPz750s, Suzuki GS, several Hondas, etc.
And of course a Virago before this latest baby - the V-Star Classic. 

I've added a Memphis Shades "Hellcat" windshield 
(may opt for the tall Yamaha shield soon) 
and Saddlemen Desperado bags, Vance & Hines Cruizer Exhaust, 
a Harley brake pedal, Custom Chrome fender tip.
Baron's Big Air Kit and floorboards, Nady alarm, Back-Off light modulator, 
fromYamaha: Passing Lamps, Engine Guards, Saddlebag Guards, 
Chrome Fender Stays, Chrome Side Covers, and Chrome Solo Seat Rail.
Replaced "chrome mustache" rear license/ tail-light setup with lay-back bracket and bullet lights.
Replaced Dunlop D404 tires with Dunlop Cruisemax front and rear. 
Studded the saddle myself, including "Star" Conchos. 
Also have a nice chrome clock (from Target, $6) mounted to the top of the triple clamp. 

Above photo is of a rare 1941 V-Star Classic,
sitting on a runway in an unknown location in the South Pacific, 
during WWII, or maybe not......
 
 
 
 

Sounds like 30 years of fun, Ronn....
I hope the V-Star gives you 30 more....
