I wasn't fond of the upper body postions displayed, but they are way faster than me, so who am I to talk shit?  Smiley

It rides like a motard, basically. Tall and short (wheelbase). But not too tall, or even as tall as it looks. It leans nicely.  Cheesy Does sidewalks nicely too.  Grin

Very confident footprint. Just keep leaning if you go in too hot. Be careful starting out on slippery surfaces (like concrete  Roll Eyes ) as it tends to drift out of stops if you're not going perfectly straight.  Shocked

Good pics will be forthcoming. It needs a bath, and I need time to do some good shots. So far all I have are crappy phone pics...


Grandpa bike, in traveling trim:


Determined rider. Shoulda put the passenger in the saddlebags, though.  Cheesy


Without the bags...

You bought that from Chris my buddy at Extreme in CastleRock. I've ridden it.
Very nicely appointed,

He thought it was a sport bike too but quickly found out that despite his illusions of grandeur its  IS a touring bike  cheeky

That is what they are for.  Grin

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Yep.  Grin Nice guy. Easy to deal with, and I loved the bike.

I know it's not a sportbike. The riding position fits my style better (being a mountain biker), and it fits my needs. It also handles worlds better than my monster ever did, even with all my mods and upgrades. Could be the Ohlins stuff, could be that the position feels more natural to me. (shrug)

That is what they are for.  Grin



That's awesome. I may have to re-create something like that, but the twins are too big for those dinky plastic cases. I wonder how many stuffed animals they could get into the bags...  Cheesy
