JustinNck1 Posted March 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2020 Got the bike out for a little ride today. It was a good shakedown for the wing in the twisties. It’s gonna be a fun summer... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSerfozo Posted March 4, 2020 Report Share Posted March 4, 2020 I was going to say, "I rode to work today for the first time in over a month." but I feel like such an underachiever compared to riding to Buenos Aires for an oil change... 😮 I've been lurking and following your trip on that other forum, Dan, and enjoying it all the way!

Tonik Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Not sure that gray goes well with the green. Other than that it is looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauly Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 I rode today. Left the house around 8:45. It was super chilly this morning and plenty of salt on the roads, but I didn't have one slip or slide. Heated vest and grips were warm enough that I enjoyed pretty much the entire day. The 30 minute slab from driveway to meetup was kind of boring, but it beats sitting on an airplane for 3.5 hours. Perspective is a very stong educator. I love riding the BMW. I love auto-blippers. I love heated grips. I love cruise. I love riding season. I love all of this shit. Let's get this season on its way. Speed safe, all. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2talltim Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) New Michilin Commander 3s and new Highway Bars for the Injun today. Give it the old first of the year look over tomorrow then the Connie gets some love. Edited March 9, 2020 by 2talltim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far they are the only ones for our bikes that don't....as far as I am aware. They take getting used to as they spread your legs out a bit more because they mount so wide. Not as comfortable as the pegs I am used to but they are good. You can try them on mine, just be careful as blue is far faster than red.

what Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 16 minutes ago, Tpoppa said: Huh Found a foot position on the peg that wasn't too painful so I got a few sessions in after the crash/sprain. I can't walk on it or put much weight on it at all. It's actually probably going to end up being a pretty bad one. Will have to see how it feels tomorrow.
