Did a 100 mile loop, bike was running ok, not shifting very well, temps dropped down into the mid 60's which was nice for riding.

After almost 2000 miles on the KLR650, I switched it up with something different today...a K75. Certainly not as nimble on the dirt, but on paved back roads and highway a little more plush.
Another K! Whats better that or the XJ?After almost 2000 miles on the KLR650, I switched it up with something different today...a K75. Certainly not as nimble on the dirt, but on paved back roads and highway a little more plush.
Eddie 21, LOVE that pic of your friends and your bikes.
Wyly, glad to see the ES out and about. I dig the red / black paint scheme.

Went for a quick ride today to pick up supplies for the house project, and dinner (wine), and of course took the long-ish way home.
While walking away my bike in the Home Depot parking lot, a guy called from a car asking if I was on the GSR. Turns out it was a fellow member, Gordinho80. He recognized my bike. Had a nice chat with him. It was cool to finally meet a fellow member.

Good times! Congrats.
Not much time to write about my whole trip, so here's the reader's digest version. After my 1st trip to Colorado, I vowed to go back. From Mn, we went to Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah and Arizona. It was like a highlight ride of the southwest. Lots of National Parks and indescribably cool roads. 3952 miles and not one thought of work.

Those are some sticky tires, to be able to hold, on at a 90 degree angle sitting still! 
Wore my legs out riding up and down Michigan hills

Me ole 1977 Fuji Sports 10, been getting my C/V system and legs back in shape this month.
I rode my GS1100G also, and stopped next to a guy on a V twin, said "Nice bike!" to me. Like, wow.

Forty miles on my bike around town today plus a few on Charmayne's when I rode it to the parking lot with her. She spent a little time on hers as well but needs to work on her clutch and throttle control as she kept stalling it out. We are going to go at it again on Wednesday after school (marching band tomorrow).
Nice pic, rk.
That is a cool looking place.
There are a couple videos on youtube. Would make a great locale for a horror film.

Had a 150 mile ride today.
Avoided the scattered thundershowers mostly.
Did get caught twice.
Did not stop for pics much.
Muskegon.
Up near Shelby.
When putting on rain gear, both rain over-boots ripped. (probably over 10 years old).
Was raining pretty hard on one accasion and was getting water leaking in around my ankles. But it wasnt cold enough to be a problem.
One place I wanted to go involved about 3/4th mile on gravel road that must have had a lot of clay, was a bit slippery.
Bike has lots of road grime. The slop from the gravel road did get mostly washed off.

Took a ride out around midnight when I finished up working on the house.
Nothing picture worthy. Followed a group of 5 or 6 guys that merged onto the highway riding multi brand cruisers for a bit before passing them. Warm and humid like mid summer
Bike is running quite well.
