    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.

Ran across these in the wild today on a 400 mile ride (local sure)

Just got back from a local 80 miles ride. Looking for a local twisty but somehow missed it.
No harm, found some more decent twisty roads in SC. Nice living on the border of NC/SC.
Finished it up on some twisties in Lare Lure. Getting close to 90F so time to put the shorty windshield on the ole '00 Connie.
Put new radial Dunlop RS3 and they work great. Still finding new roads down here after almost 3 years.

Actually did....got out for about four hours, including a lunch stop. Been a while...a serious while.

Just a few shots during a shady spot, pit stop.





 
A couple more pics from our trip to Bedford. We have somehow avoided getting caught in the rain the entire trip so far. Knock on wood!

Man, that is one pretty GS. The pictures don't do the paint job justice. In person that color scheme is just lovely. My new 2nd favorite GS paint job.

PS. Thanks for Hatch Red Chile Sauce. I'm sort of addicted now. Good thing they put their website address on the jar. I'm going to have order more now before I run out!
 
Dang Bob, it almost looked like the fairing on your Triumph was scratched then I looked harder and saw the reflection. Very pretty
 
Went for a ride through the local switchbacks for the first time in many years. The area’s police force is very strict on loud exhausts so I couldn’t ride through without being pulled over. I put Marving mufflers on the stock headers so noise isn’t an issue anymore.

Gorgeous bike, Matt.
 
Replacing it, Bob-or just pruning?
Undecided as of yet. Bought it for two up riding, but the wife quit several years ago, so it doesn't get used much.
I wouldn't mind having the space back in the garage, though. And, I also have been thinking about a dual sport.
So sigh....undecided...LOL.

But every time I do ride it, I start second guessing myself. Triumph does make a nice bike, and hard bags can me nice.
 
A dualsport is about the only bike I can realistically see adding to my stable. I keep telling myself to finish the CB900f, and then my brother (who gave me the Honda, the bike that drew me completely from dirtbikes to the street) shows up on his KLR650.
