anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

Took my 83 750 out (no pics) and took my friend Nancy's Busa as she has some confidence issues because of an injury...it needed to be ridden....great 1st gen bike

That Busa is great looking bike.
Spent some time on a '99 and was surprised at how well it handled. Certainly not nimble but not the wallowing behemoth i was expecting.

I took my wife for a ride on a Busa once. She told me to stop and let her off!!!! We worked it out.

Here's the harley tire mentioned in my post above. I assume the only shop they could find was hd and that was what was available. Desperate times I guess. It got him home.

Beautiful, great weather, peak foliage ride through Bald Eagle State Forest today.

They can be nimble. My 2005 has 1" jack-up dogbones on the rear, plus a 190/55 tire (vs the OEM 190/50)... sticking the bike on its nose really wakes up the steering.

The weather has been crazy warm and dry here....20 today...so some of us played hooky and went up island for lunch...took the Brentwood ferry to start

I took a ride of sorts, ok it technically doesn't count as my bike was actually strapped into the truck bed.

I just wanted to show you all where I originated. This is warren county Indiana state hwy 63. Sort of a tunnel of trees like Dave (Redman) has in Michigan.

Unless you're sitting on the bike up in the bed of your truck while someone else drives, it doesn't count. ;-)

I knew I was violating the rules as I often do with the bike, but geez, I didn't expect to get called out on it.

Here I am again in my adopted 2nd home of the Arkansas Ozarks. Damn, I love this place. My apologies for the bad selfie. I suck at taking them, but then again, maybe it's just not a photogenic subject matter.

for selfie, like to see you, the bike, the road and/or scenery. Right!!
Nice scenery there. So that is photogenic.

Just need to see more of the bike, ha!

Exceptionally nice day for October in Michigan.
Near 60degF at 7am, so had a little ride down past the beach before sunrise, then out for a group breakfast, then went for little ride with Mr Carl Wingsconson's challange in mind (fall color that matches bike color).
THen home because am getting behind on the leaf raking endeavor. After about an hour of leaf raking ... er, 3/4th hour, um, well, half hour, and near 70degF ... bahhh...., going for a ride. Was out for about hour and half.

I knew that, it's all good.

Yesterday I took the ferry over to Vancouver for my company's annual Gala fundraiser and I was happy that I could ride a bike over as the ferries have been a nightmare....motorcycles get priority boarding and always get on the boat even if it's fully booked.

 

[Hayabuser]

Nippy afternoon but worth the chill to get out for a couple of hours. Heated vest for the win!

 

[steve murdoch]

Three hours going nowhere. Excellent!

 

[alke46]

My last day in the Ozarks. Quite windy again but 81 degrees so I'll take it. Fall foliage is excellent this time around.
