Racoon park near pittsburgh pa. Nice cool morning.This could be cool if everybody would participate.Any ride you have anywhere in the world.
Sitting in Kentucky looking into Indiana,the bridge is the Ohio river.
I have no new busa pics,so here's the 2 wheel Caddy

Looks a like a nice ride. Nice bikes too. Nice legs, nice pants.
They're made of...cotton you know and...cotton shreds like tissue paper when it meets the pavement. Would be a shame to mess up such nice legs. From just a slow speed low side, even wearing heavy leather pants but w/o knee pads, I had to have three knee surgeries and a skin graft from my thigh and MONTHS of physical therapy. Hard shell MX style knee and shin guards are very inexpensive. I wear them under my jeans on hot days. They also fit over jeans. My knee still looks like Frankenstein's face. My daughter was forced into a curb by a Honda Accord and she hit hard and slid. Her full gear saved her. She only had one scrape on her wrist where her sleeve pulled from her glove. Her helmet was sheared from her chin past her right ear. Her jacket and pants had wear spots but they didn't wear through.
There, that's the end of my PSA. It's just that I see so many riders and pillions wearing everything but leg and knee protection and their knees are what hits first if they fall.

What about the ¾ helmet? Too hot for a full face?
With a ¾ helmet you brake your neck - with a full face you break your collarbone. I guess it's your choice.
I would feel naked with anything but a full face helmet.
If it's too hot for you down there, you can come and visit me. It's going to be in the 50's and 60 all next week with a fair amount of rain.
We only hit 80 a few times this year. 90's don't usually get here till July or August.
But you still have it better then I do - because in MY WINTER there is NO riding not just less, like in your winter.

This color scheme definitely looks better sporting the hard bags than your 2009.

LOL, it does look pretty sharp if I do say so myself
When we started looking for a replacement I was skeptical regarding the blue but once seeing it in person it was a no brainer!
