If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

I like your back yard better than mine!
 
This morning I went out for a ride on my old 750 then came home and took out the K bike.
We had a great January here...I added up my kms for the month 1800kms (1100 miles)
Not bad for living in the great white north.

My neighbour Brian is looking to upgrade from is 1996 Honda ST and took out a GT for a test ride today..

Yeah I'll say it. That K looks so awesome. Ugly but gorgeous in its own way. I'm glad to hear you got 1100 miles on! I hit maybe 100. -1 this AM we are having one of the coldest January's... I just hope it starts to turn warm by the end of February. Last year it stayed sub zero all the way through March, which isn't typical. Keep the pics rolling!!! Great job with mileage too!

Nice pic Trevor. I forgot what grass looks like. Too cold to go out and deal with the snow. Keep the pics coming.:)
 
Forgot to mention that yesterday I met a guy that had just moved to Victoria from Kamloops this past summer. He is a musician, and has a few bikes. This is his old Kawa.
Not my style but a very nice example...:)



So just so you guys know, I can't ride everyday here...it rained today, still 50 degrees though.
So I had a garage day...my wife went shopping with her mom and my son was in the house all day working on a school project. And not much of a football fan either.
First big job was to put on a rubber thingy on the engine, fell off I guess...lucky I had one on my parts bike.
And oh yeah I had the valve cover polished too...magpie that I am. lol



Then I re-organized some shelves and my bench etc...turned into re-organizing lots of stuff after that. lol







 
Must have been the same day.

Must have been the same day.

Wasn't a long ride. Just wanted to make sure everything was working properly. Runs really well but the tach is lagging. I'll have to do a search on here for how to fix that. Never been into an 1150's before.

Replaced the u/s gauge cluster that ProjectGS came with yesterday with a new one... took the bike out today to see how close my speedo calibration was... turns out it is pretty dang close! :cool:
 
Hard to take a photo with a black bike and sunset...can't see much detail in either :)

this was just a ride to the gas station....I need to fix a fuel leak before I do any real riding but I couldn't resist a drive around the block with this sunset.
 
Mark popped by with his great looking 1150 and we had a nice visit.



I put in a new battery (sealed no maintenance one...I hate the bs you have to through on our bikes to get a the battery) in the 83 1100 last night...And have not ridden it much lately so I took it our for a before supper ride. Of course I got wet on the way home...oh well I now have an excuse to wash the bike...lol:)
