I picked this up from another member and enjoyed the vast improvement over stock! Having the "bucket" shape changes everything. I rode with a sheepskin pad on it and had no problem doing 500 - 700 mile days. I was able to get a Bill Mayer seat that I like better so this one is available...

Have had a terrible riding year! Between the house and the kids, I didn't even complete the Big Money Rally! So involved with my 19 and 21 year old sons, that I've rarely got to get away. Well some of that stress has been removed... the 21 year old and I finally came to a cross roads. He has...

So we had a big fire last weekend in the foothills. Some of my regular roads are bound to look a little different for a while. Anyway, between the heavy brush and the Phos-chek retardant, I had to get out of town! On my way to my buddies gym Friday morning as the winds began to change and come...

A young boy went up to his Father and said "Dad, when I grow up, I want to be an Alcoholic." The Dad just shook and hung his head and said.... I'm sorry Son, but you can't do both!

These guys figured out how to parlay "Band Class' into a gig! https://youtu.be/HqNCJxAlwsQ

Great excuse for a ride today! Puppychow passed through on his way south, and Fairlaner and I were able to side track him for awhile. Even though it was bitter cold this morning (in the shade) We were determined to meet him at Point Magu Rock. I arrived the same time a large pod of Dolphins...

Got out to hunt some BMR Rally points yesterday. Ran north of L.A. and took Hwy 33 into the back country. Glad I reversed the route so as to go through at mid day! All the shady places were ready to make black ice. Snow beside the road as low as Rose Valley, on the coast side, and clear down to...

Wishing all who have served a very Happy Holidays!

So, as far as I can tell, all of the pictures I've seen of Richard's bike have been of it parked in various driveways and parking lots! Well, I got a chance to see it from a couple different angles this morning and thought I'd share them with the group! That ways you can recognize him if you...

Thought I should go outside and get some fresh air! Possibly within a week or ten days! Might try this... My link Not sure about road conditions or summer traffic, etc. I've been through most of this country but not along this route. Trying to keep it fairly straight forward. West coast...

Took a little ride up to Ojai, Ca. to have lunch with a friend. Riding the 101 FWY and almost home, when all of a sudden it feels like I'm riding on a water bed (in the fast lane!). Couldn't see why, but the back tire was flat as hell. So I crowd my way over to the off ramp and find a little...

It's always fun to drop the bags off after running 2up! So I took a little run up to Mount Wilson. I've been riding Angeles Crest for years and never took the time to go up to the top of the mountain. Didn't realize how close I had been! We had weather coming in that hazed out the view, but...

So, I hit the floor running when I got home! Thus the delay in posting, but here are some pics I got as we finished out our trip. After staying 2 nights in San Simeon and riding/exploring that area, we picked up and moved to Big Sur. We then spent 2 nights in the Redwoods, in an old cabin on a...

Woke up in San Simeon to a beautiful day! Have been on an adventure here, exploring the beach, the pier, Cambria and took the evening tour of Hearst Castle. There was a threat of rain, and there was some rain, but very little fell during our travel times. Here's a couple pics, Took...

Wanting to have it all is my dilemma! When we travel with our 5th wheel RV, I have to leave the bike home. I'd like the wife to be with me more often on rides so compromises must be made. I'm planning to be at the Big Sur RTE which is 4 to 5 hours from home. I'd like to avoid putting Laurie...

I'm trying to post pic's real time as part of the Big Money Rally. Originally all was good but I had my phone replaced ( my new phone is now a factory re-furbished one :angry2: )and it seems to have newer software. Some of my pic's are posting right away, but then I'll have some not post at...

Always have liked a sticky tire. I think it has made up for my lack of skill and over enthusiasm more than once! The Avon Storm has been great until you do some long slab and then they tend to flatten out in the middle pretty quick. Thus the new Ultra 2 with a harder center rubber. Seemed...

Took a ride Sunday, just a little trip to the Post Office! route Left a little late as it was sooo cold here... Took that pic here at Magic Mountain where I pulled over to plug in the electric vest! This is north of Bakersfield, Hwy 65 I think, straight road through dirt but great...

So, I started off on the "Big Money Rally" today. Perfect for me since there's no pressure time wise and 'cause I'm a noob! During my "Tour of Honor" ride I realized the value of a GPS when I needed to find an aircraft carrier in Oakland,Ca. Dive off the freeway, pull over to check the map, go...

OK, ready for a new year of riding! New Avon Storm 2 ultra's, oil and filter, air filter, spark plugs,radiator fluid and did my best to wipe/wash/lube every thing else I could get to! After riding north on the 101 to Carpenteria, and then taking the 150 past Lake Casitas and through Ojai, we...
