Finally got out for a nice ride

What with knee replacement and generally lousy or salty roads, it's been a while.

Started up quickly and ran very well. So screw all you anti-podists lol

Good for you! Soon for us in Maine. Still bit nippy and I dont like that there is still good bit of sand on roads.

I rode the CB750F in to Knoxville Tuesday evening to attend and join Time Warp Vintage Motorcycle Club. Was really nice going in, pretty brisk going home (~25 miles one-way).

It was beautiful here Saturday (yesterday). I put the battery in and took a rip. Then put the battery in the Harley and took another rip haha. Very nice day Cool

Did the same yesterday. Took the red 919 out for 125 miles after getting out of the office early. The grey "niner" is next. Looks like a new battery for the ST this season.

Been very nice in NJ the past few days-- best riding weather of the year imo.

So, out tagging

Very nice Walter. We have not been so lucky with weather over here in western NY. Hopefully soon

After three days of stormy weather (not as bad as the poor sods in the midwest of course), we had a beautiful day today and another nice one is forecast for tomorrow. Tomorrow is mixed surface ride day with the 1190; but today I got the CB out for 210 miles of mostly very good riding.

Yes, it's New Jersey lol

Sharp looking bike Walter!

Rode the 1100 on its maiden voyage wearing the, new to me, gold boomies. It was a glorious day in the back roads of Harriman State Park, NY.

The sterling weather continues! We've been getting 2-4 days of ideal weather bracketed by 1-2 days of rain to keep things green & water supplies up.

900F day yesterday for ~160 miles; VF tomorrow after today's rain lol

Tag theme was post-industrial abandonment.

Spotted this on the way- seemed kind of odd/spooky

I had no idea what it was, but someone else did-- turns out it was a tattoo parlor owned by this guy until he died

What's really strange is the the GoogleMaps image from 2016 (according to the Maps page) shows the building in much worse shape and a different color. So it looks as if it's been cleaned up somewhat for some reason; but it is still very run down.

Looking good Walter. What kind of exhaust is on your bike?

I don't know. Been told it might be a MAC.

Seems to work very well though- and sounds excellent.

Chico, Walter: MAC Tri-Y pipe, some sort of conical tubular muffler that's straight through with perf baffle and fiberglass wrap.
