anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

Took the GS1000 out for a spin to see if I could figure out what was causing the "loose" rear end. I suspected the new tire on the rear? Turns out the swingarm bolt needed tightening about 1/4 turn! Stopped by one of the local landmarks and got a pic of the sign with the bike.

Nice place, but, I'm glad I quit drinking their product some time back. Now I have more cash for bike parts!

I rode my Kat to Trevor's show today...



... bike decided to eat its starter clutch and needed to be bump-started to leave the show but otherwise it was a good day.

On a related topic, will trade 40 year old Japanese motorcycle for a reasonable modern one.

Do you ever have those days where the ride itself is more important than stopping to smell the roses or taking pictures? This afternoon was one of those times for me as I just rode non-stop for 70 miles out west of the house. Everything flowed nicely as the curves moved around me with only a few miles of having to sit behind cars during the more boring part of the ride. It sure was a nice end to the day.

Here's been my only ride last week. Yesterday I paid for it and laid on the couch most of the day building this video...

Great video, Jedz! I've been subscribed and this morning, I was able to enjoy the entire video at work.

My duty hours are 6am-2:30pm/M-F/No weekends/No Holidays. It's the best job I've had since I retired from the AF in 2011...this is my 7th gig and so far the most beneficial.

Keep up the great video experience and get that throttle cable fixed! Lol

I went for a ride yesterday to the Sternwheel Festival in Marietta Ohio, on the Ohio river. There were only two Sternwheel boats there when I arrived Sunday afternoon. I guess I missed all of Fridays and Saturdays activities. I wanted to go down Saturday and spend the night and come home Sunday... It was still a good time and great ride, taking my favorite backroads getting there. A nice 380 mile day trip.

I really look forward to those Scott, they're my mind clearing rides. Just focusing on the riding clears all the garbage out of my head and gives me some space to breathe and relax.

I always feel better after that

Absolutely! Had one today. Bit of a row with girlfriend so i went for a ride just to get away from things for a bit.
Started off at Warp 11 pace which is never a good idea when the head is not clear. Very soon the pace slowed, head cleared and just enjoyed the 100 mile loop.

Yes, Sunday early afternoon was.
For my 2nd ride since June 22nd.

And that is why only stopped once for a picture.

Was out for about hour and half.

Then Sunday evening,

Rode into into GRand Rapids to our daughter's house for some babysitting duties Monday. (this is what is great about haveing then back from CAlifornia).

Monday afternoon, bike would not start. Cranked but not start.
Took me about 5 minutes to find the kill switch somehow got knocked out of position. Then it started fine.

Mid 60s is warm enough.

Rode to to Newaygo


And then back home on some great roads along the Muskegon River







Had a good 3 hours of it.
Everything was good. Except new helmet is still way too tight.
