Good Man Mike !
That's a good run..................
Haven't done one for a while - last was 700 odd into the Eastern Cape about 3 months ago
A piece of closed sell foam after 150 or so K's under your coccsyx helps a lot later in the ride................

Fitted two new tyres - BT021 - couldn't get the Michelin PR2's for about 8 weeks, so couldn't wait.

Second day in a row of riding mine to work after piecing her back together when the thieves tried to hot wire and destroy her. She's a dream on the open road! For once, I was so happy the Hurricane is heavy, cause they were trying to push her through some soggy terrain and through a ditch. We all know that just aint gonna happen!!!

Ha ha.. true bicklebok.. thank god for those extra pounds (and really dumbass thieves...lol)

I changed the oil in the old girl last night, and cleaned/lubed the chain up good.
Think I'm gonna play a little with the suspension tonight maybe, and I'm thinking about looking around for a taller, tinted screen.

Good ride in, foggy as hell real damp and wet..........had to wipe the
old girl down ...........got a nice compliment about her from the Boss
and he thought I looked weird with my ezpass toll transponder attached
with rubber bands to my backpack.

The other not too smart thing I did to her was while running about 80
went to wipe my visor and hit the big red tit by mistake......the was fun
.............not !
