YamaHead

Definitely recognize that chap.... Great to see ya again Lyn!

Smart Man!.... Tuning Forks RULE

Especially when I can ride UP my steep driveway....sitting down!........ Read 'em & weep--

You are correct sir.....I flipped the twist shifter over to the left side, so it shifts backwards, but wasn't hard to get used to. I also added a hydraulic front brake caliper...Best upgrade I've ever done....It'll put you on your head! Also added a MegaRange sprocket gear set to the rear along w/ oversized Michelin tires. Just got an email today informing me of my new eBike that has been shipped....me anxiously waiting.

17f here this morning....nice & clear....definitely Riding today!

Nice report Russ.... definitely reminds me of some rides I did central OR

Kickin' off the weekend with the usual Friday night Tequila shooting with the missus... Definitely in prep for our 2nd Anniversary on Monday

Pete's kryptonite has raised it's ugly head again... We had 32f & snowing....won't stick around long though.

Interesting the route that Zook has taken in the past few years....

Now why does that NOT surprise me?....

30 deg F....with a light dusting of snow here today....

Pretty nice lineup from Benelli....

Epic day for that Tango ....Nice report.

Creeping right up the missus & I's 2nd Anniversary next Monday.....hard to believe how fast that 2yrs. went by I gotta get the lead outta my arse & get after some neglected residential tasks....

Gotta get the misses to an exam appointment this afternoon.... might be able to get some tree pruning in before....

No.... I mean MONgoose mtn. bike....

The Triumph Rocket is a cool beast..... they remind me of the time I had a sit on a Star Warrior....big bike w/ an alum. frame, but quite comfortable--

A bit of manual labor today as I've got to move the gravel back onto the driveway that was plowed up with the snow....that is now all melted. Then out for a Ride on the 'Goose...

Nice report Pete.... great to see you out 2 wheelin' again. That scar fetish you have will pass.... believe me, I know....I've got enough for 3 lifetimes.

Some sweet roads to explore there @Pedro.....brilliant pics!

A guy I used to work with @ a local bike shop had one.... that beast had the throatiest exhaust note...reminded me of some big Guzzi's I've heard before. That rotary spring in the rear suspension was quite weird.

Well, do you squeak when you walk Pete?

What make is that lump in that beast Fred?....looks to be a SOHC 4-cylinder of some type.

No chance I can keep up with Pete's record of previously owned bikes... but I'm pretty sure I still have my "Potcher" status as I've been called before... in other words, I ain't afraid to turn a spanner & I don't have a "Tommy the Tool" to do the work for me...just like a few of you chaps. So I counted up the one's I've owned...came out to about 25 bikes over a 28 yr. period. Still have 2 left that I'm about to finish up & plan to deliver to a coupla worthy recipients...my brother & my youngest boy. So here's a few of my favorites.... My brother is getting the Sumo....tried to sell it for over a year for only $2500....not 1 bite, as it's a kick only thump. Society these days are full of nothing but pussies that can't handle NOT having the start button on the bars! My brother is 6'-4" & a helicopter crew chief who definitely knows his way around a wrench...he's my "Go To" guy when I'm stumped with mechanical woes. Perfect Recipient-- My youngest boy, I couldn't be more proud of as he's a home owner, business owner & about to become a Dad in another month or so.... this was his 9th birthday present that I've gone completely through.... can't wait to see him teach his kids how to ride it! This post wouldn't be complete w/o this "Party on 2-Wheels" that was an absolute blast to ride.... Then there's the bike that started my Red/White affliction... rode it daily for 13 yrs. through every weather condition possible here in the PNW....including an earthquake whilst doing a good buck & a quarter on the freeway heading to work one morning.... 1 of thee scariest moments of my entire life! Now, this one really put the "FUN" back into riding for me....went to new/different places more than any other bike prior.... Then age & the need to carry the misses along as she rode as well for awhile.... found this beast just down the road from where I lived. I also did a 2500 mile trip down to AZ & back in only 98 hrs. That was a blast-- Then there's this Taiwanese job that was the last bike I actually rode....actually had Honda motor & an awesome front brake. I high-sided this beast on the way back from the upper Clackamas river about a year before MRSA hit me. Almost died from that off.... & still to this day feel aches & pains from that accident. So, what bikes have you lot owned that are memorable?....
