Gents…  and rule two, it was half the price you paid for it

Right…this practice proves that buying motorcycles from widows is bound to be a bargain!!!

Not sure how I missed such a nice comment @goosehd ; thanks buddy, it was a lovely trip and the R1200R is a wonderful bike for twisty mountain roads.

Maybe we ought to plan an IH motorbike trip in Bolivia now that we have good paved roads. After the Caribbean fishing trip, naturally. Wonder how many IH folk would be interested?

I would love to ride with a bunch of the guys who ride on  the Forum,starting with Haraki. Probably not logistically possible.

That would be very cool. Who knows, although logistically challenging, given Haraki’s (and Giles’?) interest in motorcycles maybe he’d be up for something like that. Wonder whether IH-JP have done group trips like that. If everybody wears IH gear, it may even be useful promo material?

[Jett129]

I've seen videos on social media of groups of riders pulling out from ,what I think, is an IH store.

[goosehd]

@motojobobo That would be a blast!

My new steed:  Just waiting on the weather to get a little better 

[goosehd]

@natehate Excellent job on the bike!

[Jett129]

Congratulations,very nice. Will you add any kind of windshield?

[goosehd]

@Jett129 Really don't know at this point…I'm going to ride it stock for a season and see where it goes.

[Giles]

An absolute beaut…..

[goosehd]

Here's my 2008 Dyna

[Jett129]

Also beautiful,do you still have it?

[goosehd]

I do…She’s my keeper!

@goosehd nice to see you've bit the bullet and got it. congrats. ride safe!

[Baba-san]

Great choice with the Thuxton @goosehd … you’re going to love that when you get the chance to ride it

The dyna looks great... Many years ago are used to have an Evo FXR with twin shocks which I lowered and put a single seat on similar to that. It was a great bike and handles pretty well (for a Harley), although I’m sure the more modern versions handle and brake a whole lot better

I particularly like The orange flame tank and rest of the paintwork… That colour really pops
