Well the snow would do it for me, I'm too old to be hiitin the pavement because of ice.

What do you ride stihlman?

I hit a deer at about 60 last spring but did not go down. I hear you on the no fall mentality.

Thanks, I have a set of crashbar chaps by airlite (not pictured) that keep my feet and legs warm. Best thing i ever bought for a bike.

Hey Stihl Sawin,
how do you like the wind deflectors for your hands, I've been thinking of getting a set of them.

They don't work, save your money. They do keep bugs from hitting your hands, they will hit the top of your knuckle though. BTW, Nice bike ya got there.

Nice bikes. Cool to see the thread making a mini comeback.

If any of you guys ever make it to the Columbus, Ohio area. Make sure to stop by Iron Pony. Over 100,000 square feet (old K-mart) of just motorcycle accessories. Largest accessory store in the world I believe. They also just opened a Yamaha dealer next door. You can spend hours there. Lots and lots of good deals to be had too.

I can't wait for spring. I don't like to ride in the winter because of all the salt and grit on the road, let alone snow. Just nasty for the bike and the rider.

Near enough, it's an '02.

Me too, it's a bit beyond my abilities at the moment! My father-in-law made it, it's mostly pine but plenty of other woods for details, footboards and grips f'r instance are mahogany - whatever he had in the garage.
This is his latest project:

He's only got the one grandson.

Yeah I took a wild stab at the year. Those are cool bikes.

I thought I had posted mine here, but I did not see it sooo, here she is.

1985 HD superglide

I put her in the shop last summer, has a new electronic ignition, new stator, new voltage regulator, new chrome sprockets and roller chain, new brakes, rebuilt the calipers, new fluids, new battery, tuneup, and dyno run and adjustments... runs great.

She is in my garage right now up on a lift with the gas tanks off, getting some finer polishing done to the engine,(dremel work.. ) my wife and kids got me a bunch of chrome to replace some that is on it..(I like the louvered chrome.. looks) She is getting a new louvered battery cover, louvered coil cover, speedo and tach visors and gaskets, chrome fork boot covers, new dash trim and some other misc new goodies and possibly a new seat. (still looking for a new seat I like that will fit the 85 FXEF)

I took off the saddlebag mounts, may put them on at a later time if I find a set of bags I really like..

Here's my old Yamaha FJ1100. Last of the air cooled dino's (Jap) with modernized running gear forks, shock, wheels and brakes.

 

[stihl sawing]

Awesome looking yamaha, I like it better than any of the new ones.

 

[wilbilt]

I have this old 1975 Suzuki GT 550. Less than 2500 miles on it, but it did sit for a loong time. It does run, needs TLC.

2-Stroke street bikes FTW!

Cool. Keep us updated. 2-stroke street bikes rock. I want to own an H2 or Bultaco metralla some day.
