Recommended Posts

It’s the season,  

just curious..  

sometimes a great way to visit and argue about hockey over a good Bean.. ;)

 

Perhaps a better way to share travels, and maintenance tips. 
Dont be too shy to post a pic of your kicks too!

 

Kind Regards.

06 FLHXI (street glide)

F700GS - My first on-road motorcycle. Had an 85 Yamaha XT125 that I learned on years ago, but decided to step up.

Dual sport all the way. I'm chasing the big boy BMW 1250GS now, but that'll be in a couple more years.

I used to, before the family life kicked in... had a CBR600RR.  Definitely miss it... the funds from selling that bike are now sitting on my wife's wedding finger lmao

 

Ride safe out there guys.

Sounds like she owes you one ;)

Hell yeah brothers !! :metal:

 

I have a Harley Iron, Ducati Streetfighter V4s and KTM 890 Adventure R. Back on the road last weekend but can't wait till the weather gets a bit better to properly enjoy some serious riding again.

Hard to beat that kind versatility , and a beauty of a ride from what I understand..

 

I think everyone should own 3 bikes :)

Even this one is a fun ride. It's got enough pep to do highway speeds easily, and grunt to haul my fat arse up the dirt roads / tracks too. Surprisingly comfortable. The 1250 has more bells, whistles and poop though. A lot more. lol.

 

The best part about dual sporting on the dirt is (apart from just riding out, having fun, riding home) there aren't any minivans or minivan drivers making text&drive left turns without looking, out in the sticks.

My '74, 125 Vespa Super Sport is classed as a motorcycle cause it's over 50cc.

 

But, it looks like a little old Mod scooter to me so I don't think it really makes the grade for a motorcycle thread.

 

Love it. Hope to have it running again soon. It's been sleeping for quite a while. 

If I get a proper bike, I would look at a BSA or Triumph for the road. I would love to get an Enduro type one day too for adventures.

I have a 2015 Honda CRF250L dual sport, BMW850GS (selling it to a friend) and a 93' Yamaha Virago 1100. Was going to buy my dream Indian Dark Horse right before covid...but probably wait until next season now.

 

Was on a long trip so put a wind screen on in the pic...have removed it and air filter covers you see and am in the process of turning it into a rat style. The tape showed up this week. Will post a pic when done the work.

May be an image of one or more people, beard, motorcycle and outdoors

There is a proven formula for how many bikes you need: x + 1 with x being how many you have.
