    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. 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.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

anyone go for a ride today? Pics?

Couldn't sleep, took the 650 out for the first time this year.
3:30am ride. Just did valve adjustment. Wow this girl kicks at 6k! :D
Feels like a mini turbo kicks in.

Gonna put on some miles tomorrow (later today) lol
 
First nice Saturday of the year (60 degF, clear, calm) so you can guess what I was thinking.

Wife suggested that we should walk the dog (12 pound fluffy foo foo dog).

FOund a way to do both.
Doggie went for ride with us, then we walked in a park.

Doggie rode in that fabric carrier on wifes lapp. Was a bit crowded, but not bad.

Someone mught say this should be posted in "stupidest thing have done on GS".

Should find way to get picture of us all on the bike.

Joined the regular Katana guys' Saturday morning run again. Another great ride up the usual fun little back roads to the Pitstop Cafe for brekky.

Still loving these Avons!

Added some class to the IGA car park:



Always a top view from the Pitstop Cafe, loving the blue sky even though there was a little cloud around:





And of course more class in the Pitstop Cafe car park:

First spin out up towards the local ski resort after a full rebuild and stiffening of the front end along with disabling the anti-dives. Was pretty happy how the front felt when I finally got to some bends. Looking back into the valley from Bogus Basin Road...

As a matter of fact...hit another spot in New Mexico before my departure next month. Carved into some twisty's leading to 9K ft of elevation to Sunspot. Gorgeous view of Alamogordo and White Sands. Enjoy!

Again very nice job with the pics Ed, awesome job. Now who is that doofus grinning at ya?:-s Oh yeah, ya'll stay tuned next week end. Ed's first bike rally, Aspen Cash in Ruidoso.
 
Wow, awesome pics Ed! You said they were all in New Mexico? I have some sort-of-family out there and I've been meaning to go there! I haven't been west at all yet.

Wow, awesome pics Ed! You said they were all in New Mexico? I have some sort-of-family out there and I've been meaning to go there! I haven't been west at all yet.

I'm glad you like the pics. The warmer weather and MrBill being my tour guide has helped me enjoy some beautiful sites in New Mexico.

Thanks to GSR, I've made a great friend in Bill and he's been so helpful in maintaining my bike. Fortunately, I've been utilizing parts he's removed from his 1980 GS750E and they've worked!

--4 Boot Clamps to replace the Hose Clamps the OP installed on the Airbox
--630 Chain with only 3K miles

I hope you make it out here. My new job brought me here and I'm taking advantage by visiting family in Los Angeles and San Marcos, TX.

Great pics, I was up there Summer before last. I could spend some time in the area. Great roads in and out and the locals are friendly. If your going east It's also the last mountain riding you will see til Arkansas.

Cheers
