    Trev,

    Is that the "image stabilization" (of utube..or other) that makes it look like the instruments and mirrors are going forward and then back....? I have found that with the continual motion of traveling down the road the "image staabilazation" (of utube) can do strange things in addition to what it is intended to do.

      Hmmmm...maybe. I did ad that to at least one or both videos but I didn't look at it again. Thanks for pointing that out Redman.

        I rode to work today. When I came out, there was a Suzuki parked next to me. It looked like it might be an 850L shaft drive. However, it had no emblems except the "Suzuki" on the stator cover and it was sorely bobbered in the most home-hack-job way. Purists here should be thankful that I can't really take pictures there without being "politely encouraged" to not do so. The bicycle bell on the clutch side of the bars was a nice touch, though, lol.

          Got out after dinner for an evening ride (58 degrees).


          Went out of town, then back in town about sunset.



          Found a way into the state park camp ground (not open yet).

          Yogi, Ranger Smith will not like you going in there !



          There.
          Now it is springtime.

            Well, I took her out of hibernation today. She fired up pretty quickly and ran just as well as she did when I put her to sleep in November. Got it up to temperature by going up and down the road a bunch of times. Did a few figure of 8's in the road and shut it down. Will clean her up and get ready for the riding season. Good to be back out on the road again.

                  Thanks Fred...no worries about the video as a week tomorrow you will be riding it in real life!
                  Btw...which bike do you want to ride? It's one of those rare times when I wouldn't hesitate to ride any of them across the country tomorrow.

                    Hard choice, I really like to do wheelies, but I think the one with a new rear tire so I can do a really great smoke show at the Port Renfrew Motorcycle parking spot!

                        - what is that thing with a cylinder sticking out the side....?

                        or, I could say:

                        - Hey, look, a picture of two GSes.


                        and.... a 3rd thing I could say...

                        - Say, that the same "motorcycle only" parking area we saw in your first video posted a few days ago...?

                            Good thing for brothers to do some things together. (I would suggest that you have some pics of you two. Years later you will like that.)

                              Morning ride for breakfast.
                              Afternoon ride, because it was 70degrees.
                              Evening ride with thin excuse of running an errand ...

                              Pic of evening ride.
                              (I like pic with the sun low, if can avoid shadows.)
