I went for a ride today

#1 Post by 2smoke » Sun Oct 14, 2012 10:18 pm

It was unseasonably warm here today, so this afternoon i put down the computer and went for a nice long ride.
I thought i would share a few pictures.
Here i stopped at a park in the woods:

I went riding around the Lake Erie shoreline:

And at some point i stopped at Niagara Falls

I rode until i hit the tank reserve!
It was great.

Thanks guys.
This bike runs as good as it looks too! Its always ready for a whack at the throttle and amazes me all the time. It really is a do it all bike.
At one point in the day, i pulled up to a stoplight and some guys with bikes were in a parking lot standing around and they were straining to see what i was riding. So they got to hear the DG pipes at full throttle thru 1rst and second gear. :smt003
I guess they will be selling their bikes now and looking for some 2 strokes. :smt003
Hey Strommie i just noticed your post signature! Lol! :smt038
