    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.

This photo makes me "happy".
After a complete nut and bolt restoration this was the first start in 45 years for this '67 CB77 Superhawk.
Maybe the intimidation factor of the Big Boys watching was the incentive. :D

 
My son's first (legal) ride on the GS. I can't tell you how happy both he and I are. My wife let us temporarily transfer her Sena unit from her helmet to his so we were able to stay in contact. Great conversation and teaching opportunity in real time. Awesome memories! Happy day!

Start of season. That is happiness for me. I bought this bike in December, I sat inside the garage reving it and looking forward to ride. It was terrible. I waited, and waited and waited for the roads to clear up. Towards the end of april the roads cleared up and i was able to go out and try the bike.

I was scared it would be too heavy, or to powerful, or not a good fit for me. But the bike carried its weight brilliantly, its mellow when I want, and FAST when I want.

I was freezing my ass off, riding around while it was snowing, driving the planned route in my car first, and then on the bike knowing it was clear.

They joy of riding a new bike, in april, that had been sitting in the garage since december, can't be beat. Bike runs better now, Im not as cold and things are fixed, but I still miss that feeling of rolling it through the snow the first time so I could ride (asphalt was clear, but outside of garage wasnt).
 
Great theme, as any picture with a motorbike in it makes it a happy photo. Then I remembered how happy real Mexican tacos make me. This is from Baja 4 years ago.

 
I debated a lot about posting this pic because I know there are some that would jump on me for negligence
but I love the joy on both our faces.
