Went out for a short ride today in the hopes of getting some time on the bike before the next rain storm. Unfortunately I got caught in a coupe of small showers but Suzie perfumed well. Stopped in Sunol to catch the steam train running.
Your bike smells good!

THAT bike is bad ass Dave.
Thanks Sandy,
It's smoother for sure...No, the crank is fine. I just think my 83 is so smooth that I'm spoiled by that. lol
This is the best it has ran since I bought it. It really is a nice bike to ride. I put sonic fork springs in...the bike is super tight for a 35 year old bike.
And it's pretty quick too.
Umm Yeah... Cheap
I should have never done this on a weekend. The line at Customs was huge and VERY slow moving.30 minutes delay at the border, 2 hours in line waiting for an agent, 30 minutes to get the paperwork sorted. Bike is now legally imported to the US, no problems other than the Speedo quit somewhere around Bellingham. Will try to post pics tomorrow.

What are these papers that need to had for crossing into the US?
I'm thinking of buying Canadian too, because I'm seeing some bikes between Windsor and Toronto.
Thanks!
I will create a new thread later detailing what I have learned. The short answer is it is very easy AS LONG as the bike is 25+ years old AND you have exactly the correct paperwork and everything is in order, and you are an old white guy with a confused look on his face. If it is newer they are much more picky. I have seen a couple dealers that will help with the process if you are American and want to buy new in Canada.

A few miles in today, a chilly 30?f ride to work this morning. Warmed up to a balmy 56?f this afternoon though.
Like those Civil War monuments. We have one near here very similar to that, but our guy has a mustache, and a dirty face.

I practice this look just before I go on a ride. You never know when you're going to need it
If you are starting to grey, learn the look.....

Took her out for the first time after the rebuild, got the safety inspection, and now she's registered! This bike takes off like a rocket! But then again, it's the largest displacement bike I've owned. I love it! Wife took this picture to share with my dad afterwards.

Way to go! Your dad will be happy with that I'm sure. Enjoy your new ride!
I love monuments... Here's myself next to the monument at Gettysburg of my great great great (might be another great or two I'm missing) Grandfathers's regiment that was committed in Gettysburg...Like those Civil War monuments.

Obviously he wasn't a casualty of war for I'm living testament of his survival. Same last name which is really cool. Bit haggered... 3K miles on a B-King in 6 days does that to anyone
