    I havent had a bike with spoke spokes (nor drive chain) since 1982.

    And since I saw Steve M photo , I dont know why I bother..... but then again, I aint trying to win anyway.

    Okay, I found some pic that kinda fits.......
    .

    Ah, and now I see KiwiAlpha pic, mine is too much of similar idea.

    So, look for something else.

    Here (I'll delete the one above)....

            Paraphrasing a line from Deliverance, "Y'all sure have some pretty spokes....."
            sigpic2002 KLR650 Ugly but fun!
            2001 KLR650 too pretty to get dirty

            Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

                Sheesh! I stay away for three weeks and the system breaks down entirely! A group of 'good ole boys' sitting around drinking 160 proof grain alcohol (sounds like the reincarnation of "Krusty's Inner Circle") stages a coup in the middle of the night and the next day voters are claiming they were disenchanted or de-incarcerated.

                Fear not, I have returned. Rules are: "House of Spokes" wins because 6 beats 4 or 2. Baatfam is runner up because his bike looks a lot like mine.

                Tennessee Jed (or Phil): how can you call yourself a 'Swiftee' iffen you ain't got one of them 'picture fones'? Fear not, I can get you up to speed. If anybody asks you what your favorite Taylor song is, just say "Hard Day's Night."

                Now pass me some of that 'Mountain Dew'!
                1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

                2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

                            Hard this wk. Being grown up on farm with spoke whl. tractors Redmad really got my attn. Steve's CBX with it's + all those other spokes, very impressive, But voting storm 64 for thought, efforts, and results of those OEM look-a-like rotors on those spoked wheels, Suzuki should of had one like that.

                                Rich and slow spokes for me this week. How does one get a 78 750 soooooo clean. Is it even ridden?
