Photos of your bike on location

At a city meeting I was told it was for Fire Trucks.

Aah - that makes sense. :thumbup


2 weeks ago, when the sun was shining, I went on a mission to see how many of the Eureka murals I could capture. I got 22 of them, but there's at least that many more to capture later. Enjoy.

Great effort!


we called ‘em “bobcats” when I was a kid … :afm199

Yep, took me until the end of Calaveras Rd before I recalled "Bobcat".


Mt Umunhum Rd. The 950SM feels awesome on a tight road like this - so torquey right off the bottom of the rev, throttle-clutch are so smooth, brakes are so strong, ergos' so right, reflexes are so direct and quick...

Got out an enjoyed the weather yesterday. Stopped at the Pelican Inn for a Guinness and got mired in Muir Beach traffic for the last part of 1. Took it as a sign I should enjoy the scenery.

Proper rat bike always has a new driver sticker :laughing
 
^ How’s the fueling on these modern versions of the 690 enduro, any low speed stalling issues?
And what sort of range can you get out of that saddle before your butt has had enough?

I'm not having any low speed stalling issues. The bike has a Wings exhaust and Twin Air intake and filter. I also have the Rade Garage aux tank which adds an extra 1.5 gal to the 3.5 gal OEM fuel tank. So with 5 gal aboard, I can get around 250 miles. That obviously varies depending on interstate time.

The Internet says the seat on these bikes is unusable. I don't know...It seems just as, if not MORE, comfortable than the Seat Concepts seat on my Africa Twin. It did just fine on a multi-day trip a few months ago, with pretty long days in the saddle.
 
Well it doesn’t have my bike in it but it is on Mount Hamilton and it has a view of the Sierras with snow. So that’s cool. This was yesterday

It was spectacularly beautiful out yesterday, nice break from the rain.

I had a few more marketing kits to drop off, so I used that as an excuse to build a nice loop around the northbay.

This is the best I could do, during the two hours today when it wasn't too cold to ride. Someday when it finally warms up a bit and the snow melts, I'll go somewhere more scenic. :laughing

Hell yes.. Jack in the Box always delivers!! :laughing

Nice shots N4te. Like the Benicia Capitol as a building guy. Not so much the Prius as a car guy.
 
Just ride by wire and Magneti Marelli's questionable electronics...

No modern tech on the 950, but the skies were pretty again yesterday on my way home from physical therapy.
