so far no problems. It has been on check up and everything is fine...
It's been like this for 3 yrs now
Who made me to try it, who made me to love it so much!?

We just spent 6 days in the Texas Hill Country riding, camping, hiking and bird watching.  This will be the last multi-day ride.  The summer temps will make camping too hot and uncomfortable. 


These two photos were taken in the Kerr Wildlife Management area.  The second photo has the habitat of the
endangered golden-cheeked warbler in the background.  We didn't see one here but later at Pedernales State Park we saw and adult feeding its fledgling.  Very cool. 


These last two were taken just outside of the Palmetto State Park.

I like it. The bike has that certain understated but edgy Monster look.   [thumbsup]
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

+1  I completely agree with MadDuck and I really like your bike Lore.  Just curious as to the significance of the number thirteen to you.  It can be a very powerful number.  Some people think it is bad luck, while others think of it as a lucky and powerful number.  I fall under the second group of people.  Also, it is a very well known gang number in certain parts. 
So, like I said I am just curious.

Went for a ride today along Route 5 west of Williamsburg VA and then some back roads in the farm country near the Chickahominy River.  Got caught in an afternoon downpour and took refuge in a tractor barn behind an abandoned farmhouse.  Here are some pics.

Nice shots Mike D  [thumbsup]

I really like the second one with the dilapidated house
Comes a time
When the blind man takes your hand
Says don't you see
Gotta' make it somehow

you really should go back and recheck the red car. might be a farmhouse find.

Mike, I really like the way your sprocket cover resembles the wheels on your bike.  Also, the Arrow exhaust always looks good on the S2R Monsters.

Thanks for the compliments LL717 and Travman.  This farmhouse had all kinds of stuff just sitting there--what looked like perfectly good tractors sitting in the barn.  And those two junk cars.  There were even unopened boxes from Bass Pro Shop stacked up in the barn.  Must have been some bad circumstances there and it looks like the house has been empty for quite a while.  Maybe a neighbor is using the barn to store stuff.  Might take a drive in the pickup and ask around.

tnx
actually former owner of this bike made the '13'
although that number was allways around me :) kinda destiny played with me
I was lookin for a long time for a bike(almost every day on adds sites), and this one just popped out and i had to have it (even I'm not so much of a ducati fan, more aprilia  ;) )  now I'm enjoying it more and more every day
I could say that this number for me isn't bad at all  ;D

P.s. Don't have gangs here in Croatia  ;D
Who made me to try it, who made me to love it so much!?

In some circles 13 represents the 13th letter of the alphabet, which is "M", which stands for marajuana.

Huh.  Never heard of that reference. 

See what I mean, numbers can have a lot of meanings to a lot of people.
