      You're going to have to put that bike on a diet. Look at the mighty crack it put on the cement when you put it on the sidestand!

          Took my poor neglected 750 out for a spin after work today....was able to ride my BMW to work today for the first time in a while....
          I have put 60 miles on my 750 since Sept 1st....yikes.

            A few days ago, the weather was bearable, and my puppy not that sick (currently debugging a stripped oil drain screw and a lean condition)

              Finally some twisted throttle therapy!!!!
              Felt good to just go for a nice blast after work... Tires do pretty good in the snow!


              Looks like a white Christmas is in the cards for this year!


              Merry Christmas too all!!!

                    Jedz, your pictures have me contemplating getting a TU250X as well. Also nice tweaks

                    Only thing that bugs me is that the chainguard curve doesn't match your rear sprocket

                      highly jealous of those in tropical locals who are still riding!
                      7c today a huge improvement from the -24 -30 of the last couple weeks... the main roads are free of ice but the road from my drive to the main road is still iced over...

                          Well, they look water resistant at least.

                            Highly recommend it! It's a phenomenal little bike! Lots of custom work...

                            The chain guard and sprocket might look different because I shortened the chain to bring the rear tire closer to center so it's better for wheelies and handling

                            Some footage of my spin...

                              A spin literally.....it's a light bike and you have off road tires but be careful on those roads, my friend. At least wear some better riding pants than those "go to church" pants in the video!

                                Those are Dickies double kneed work pants with flannels underneath! All my pants are heavier then most minus a few pair of plain denims I wear in the warmer months.

                                I would not be riding in just Khakis... Too cold!

                                Merry Christmas Steve!!
