I wish I had a neighbor like you, that gets out of the house in search of motorcycles to clean.

The end of August is upon us, here is the thread for submitting your entries for Bike Of The Month. You can post multiple pictures, I will consider the last one you post as your entry. You get one entry, of an horizontal picture of your bike out on a ride this month. Friday evening I will lock this thread and start the poll.

Sorry to hear about this.

Looks really nice!

Happy Birthday, Rich!

I don’t know @Marcel, did you ever have a fork leak on the KTM? Those Chinese are pretty good at making forks now…

Are you naturally drawn to bikes with shit frames, @Marcel?

October tires are here

What I do behind closed walls with my own bike is up to me, judge yourself…

In racecars in hot weather, the water wetter stuff works well. It just doesn’t help with freezing.

For those temperatures and abuse, have you considered using something other than antifreeze for cooling? Water wetter or something similar. It's nice and doesn't slide as much when spilled either, just make sure to go back to antifreeze for your winter.

Yesterday washing my bike felt like a porn scene. I tried a foam gun for the first time. It didn't impress me much, I think I should have used quite a lot more pressure to wash it off as I think there were residues on some of the plastics afterwards, but high pressure at close distances scares me. So I washed it a second time later, which meant I could enjoy one of life's pleasures which is to ride a bike in shorts and tshirt in warm weather at sunset or night. It's not clever but it's nice. I have hardly ridden it this month as well, quite a lot of heat and forest fires are putting me off, and tomorrow will go on a car trip with little brother so that'll be it for a week or two at least. There are plans for the GS though, a set of Mitas is ordered and will be fitted in September, by the time the shocks are going in for maintenance to get them ready for a little ride to the dust in October.

Sahara weather is quite dry, though, although at 45 or 46 is it on the hot side.

I think you are all spoiled, I found the traffic in England to be nothing but calm and safe.

It would be really bad luck to have another bike with a cracked frame!

Always terrible news.

Is there any proper dealerships within acceptable and normal distances from your home, Marcel? Like, 30/45 minutes?

There are shelters for that of thing. It’s never ok!

I don’t know who you are anymore.

It does, that's why I ride it mostly in right hand turns.

Hey @Six30, look at this picture of two generation GSs. I wonder If they go backwards if we swap transmissions?

Your mum?

Pretty sure it’ll smoke a skidoo now.

I admire the commitment to making it right!
