No, Allot of Denso in these new Triumphs. The loom is a Triumph made part though.

A little windy, but still a pretty nice day for a ride in MB! What will likely be my last one of the season, expecting cold wet and possibly snowy weather by the end of the week!

Rode down to Tucson last Friday, back yesterday. Great ride down the 79.

Just ordered the 1200 kit. Looking forward to installing that.

Man I've had a few of those days... I remember the first on my GS750... That was a LONG ride home... 50 miles at 10mph sucks.

Pre-dawn ride. Looking SE. The waning moon and Venus.

[Jedz123]

The Stars are spectacular... I just hate how early the sun sets now.
Great shot Eli!
Picked up a flat again on my ride yesterday attempted to repair but the tire was flat... Seeing cords so I think it's time. Bonneville will need a new shoe.
Took the VMAX out... Soaking up the few days that are left with these beautiful colors.

I forgot the lunacy of the MAX holy smokes...
Hope ya'll have a great weekend!
Best,

Pre-dawn ride. Looking SE. The waning moon and Mars at opposition.

umm no. That's Venus. You have to stay up later to see Mars. ("oppposition" would be towards a FULL moon)

Oops. You're right. I got mixed up cuz they're both rising in the east. So the picture above is the waning moon and venus. Mars is at opposition but comes up in the evening.

Wish I could have taken a picture about a month ago when the moon, Saturn and Jupiter were all very close.

Pretty sure I saw Mars rising over the mountains on my ride home Thursday... It was spectacular with the sun setting and mars rising over the green mountains.

Been a great year of reflection for me... I have been star gazing allot lately. Peace and happiness comes from within and the Cosmos has always been the keel for me.

Best, enjoy the twilight of the season.

On crystal clear nights with a set of binoculars I could see a moon of Jupiter! Awesome... We had some great skies to gaze up at this year!

Best,

Beautiful colors of fall, Jedz! Wonderful capture/view of the trees in dark contrast to your bike. It’s wonderful to have 4 seasons...something my eldest daughter loves to talk about the east coast.

Thanks for sharing and reflecting on the calm that is nature. In these times, it’s a great way to gain peace.
