Hello everyone,
I joined the community recently, hence an introduction is in order!
My name is Haluk (people usually call me Luke). I am 40. I live in Istanbul. I am an architect and assistant professor; have been teaching younglings the secrets of the profession at Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University for the past 10 years.
I used to own a NC 750X and I was very happy with it. It was my first bike. I rode it approx. 35000km and only in Turkey.
I did a big Turkey tour this summer; approx. 8500km in 24 days. The moments from such endavours I tend to post on my instagram acccount. I can be found there under the name @Akratis.
I bought my Super Tenere last week from a friend . It's a 2015 XT 1200ZE with electronic suspension.
I rode this bike around 1000km and so far it's been really impressive. Very easy to handle, robust and powerful. Still getting used to few things.
I have been skimming through the forum for the past week and decided to create an account.
So I guess we will see each other around!
Cheers!

Welcome from California. Istanbul is on my list of places to visit. Straddling two continents and rich in history... how could I not want to visit? I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of your travels.
