              I think so. When Sandy restored his EF, I think he had the small panels on it for a short while.

                        For High mile touring I recommend the Michelin Road 5 in the rear and Michelin Pilot Road 4GT for the front. 150/70 ZR17 rear and 12/70 ZR18 Front. Go tubeless too!

                          Those mountains look familiar...miss riding with you.

                          Glad you and the Mrs are enjoying riding time together.

                            Hey Jedz,

                            I saw your short, early morning ride video this morning. Here's the notes I took:

                            - Maryland trip in two weeks
                            - At sunrise you said:
                            "this is what being alive is all about!
                            "You get moved by Awesomeness that is in the universe"
                            - You didn't like the tires you were riding on...they took a while to warm up and grip the road.

                            Anyway, I have more time at work these days to get caught up with phone alerts. I get notifications when you put up new videos so I'm subscribed!

                              Just like our US rallies!
                              yes....its quite crowded....almost 100 bikers came across indonesia....mostly from java and bali....and this time its not sponsored by suzuki....
                              FYI : suzuki dealers are closed one by one because mostly indonesian people tends to buy honda and yamaha nowadays....

                              and just few of us has skills to works our own bike....especially total engine overhaul

                              i'll upload another more photos soon

                                my headlight are custom made by my friend....the housing made from 3mm thick of acrylic and its not too expesive....just about US$40 include his labour fee (those price are not include honda S2000 hid projector and LED spotlight)

                                basically my GS250 are was not in stock condition at all....i want my bike to be fancy and much faster than the original factory stock....so i mod it in almost all parts (i use several another bigger bike parts and retrofitted it in my bike)

                                waitt....there's no volcano in US ?
