      Five & six of them I really like. Including marvinsc & cowboy. Including baatfam different idea (again).

      Need a tiebreaker. Will vote for Roger Burque. Aside from the distant view of empty road, Parking in middle of the road really shows that not expecting any other traffic.

          Hey all. Voting for Burque73. Definitely fits the bill...

          rphillips I had a ball riding around town that night. The worst part was dragging the scoot thru a foot of snow from the shed to the street.

          When consulting the magic 8 ball for advice, one must first ask it "will your answers be accurate?"

                      Hey, thanks for the votes. That photo was somewhere near Rossport Ontario, just a random stealth camp spot.
                      I wondered later if there were bears in the area or not.

                      How about "chicken strips". Date code a bonus. Hardly any wear on this tire, but taken today. Tire roughly made in July of 2023.
                      I doubt anyone will have this in their photo archives, so it'll have to be a fresh picture.

                          So, Yah, Good, this will get me, and others I suspect, out in the garage with camera.
                          Since, pics I have of tires are more "tire damage".

                          Meantime.... let me use my BOTM (June 2024) photo that does show tires.

                          '80 850G that I had from about 1994 till about 2006 (now in possession of a fine GSR member. Photo is just before He rode it from here to Florida, by way of rallys in Iowa and West Virginia).

                            Moved the bike into the shop yesterday with the help of both grandkids with the intent of just doing an oil change today. Then I happened to check the site last night so did like Redman said.

                            I guess I'm still too chicken as the fingers are still on the right side of the tire. Tried to get the year in but didn't realize I moved it up as high in the picture as I did (0724).
