Slept in today as the ride to Ohio is relatively short - 4 hours / 300 miles.. Will get going in awhile and stop by my bud's house on the way outta town.

The Stella looks like piss compared to the other stuff.......but $12 a bottle is crazy!

How much is Stella?

Don't drink Saul.......it's a migraine trigger!

Fair enough mate, neither do for other reasons, not that I didn't enjoy it immensely in the past 😉

Landed in Kansas City for the night - some 650 miles after leaving home. It's 93F / 34C here - felt hot as  shit to me.

Great view out the of the room ...

A few hours later, stopped to catch the sunrise. Looked better than yesterday, but still not too bright....

I really like Wings for some reason, the only one I've ever ridden was a GL in 1978 but it has stayed with me, there's something about them.

They're not so bad and have their place. But I don;t think I'd buy another one.

Is it just the fuel range that puts you off or is there other stuff as well

 

Range is one thing but the bike is just too small for me physically. I sit too far forward and there's not shit for leg room. ADV bikes are better built for me as far as size goes.

Wings are made for small guys - around 5'8" or so.

Well you learn something everyday i just assumed a behemoth like that would suit the larger gentleman, then again its typical Japanese design i bet the suspension was designed for a 70kg ( 154Ib ) guy as well

It does look less “American” than the previous generations.
