Glad to see you out on the new ride - that's what it's all about, brother! ======= Today I pulled the carb bank off one of my '87 VFR700F's and am sending it off to be rebuilt, cleaned, adjusted, etc. Trying to move forward with this one so I'll have at least one of the '87's operational in addition to my other model VFR's for the upcoming riding season here...

Rebuilt entire clutch hydraulics on my '90 VFR750 and now working on some minor fairing cracks
Also working on the '06 Ninja 500R...replaced petcock with non-vacuum and putting in a new battery.

I'm not strictly against electric bikes, but its all about range. Part of the joy of riding for me is exploring, intentionally getting lost, taking some back road I have never been on. Can't really do that if you have to plan your whole riding around very sparse charging stations.

Another beautiful day. This time to the upper Delaware north of Port Jervis.
 This is the place known as Hawks Nest. The trike handled remarkably well in the esses. Of course I was only rolling at 40 mph.

A guy shows up at the local C&C with a variety of vintage bikes...all in exceptional condition.
This 4-cyl Indian sounds just like an old MG or Triumph.
