Took off this morning on a multiday bike trip from Bolivia to Argentina with three friends.
Left Santa Cruz at 8 am and arrived at 5 pm in Sucre for an overnight stay. This hotel greeted us with an incredible densely flowering bougainvilla.
I’ll try to post morenpics along the way.

@motojobobo So happy to see you back in the saddle!! Try to take it easy on the sudden stops…
Keep the pics coming. Love seeing your rides! -
@el:
Finally had a day off work and some warmer but rainy weather. Got the drag pipes on, plenty more to do when work and the weather cooperates.
I just love the simple look of this! Reminds me of the classic XLCHs. So clean yet so unassuming. Just beautiful looking!
If that rear fender sat a little bit more flush to the tire. PERFECTO! -
'52 Panhead a friend of mine built! A true craftsman.

Thank you @goosehd , I am DELIGHTED myself!!
Our our day # 2, we drove past this old hanging bridge (not sure how old).
My trusted steed is holding up quite well.
Typical free-ranging local roadside fauna in Bolivia…usually llamas are quite tranquil and not a huge risk to drivers, unlike their smaller cousins, vicunas, which are nervous and frisky.
Pic in the center square of Villazon, border town with La Quiaca (Argentina) just before we jump into the border crossing administrative mess, misleadingly named customs and inmigration, suggesting something orderly and controlled.
One last picture celebrating with beers the victorious achievement of another border crossing!! This is in Argentina, town called Purmamarca. Great views of mountains up close on either side of it.

Almost finished customising my 21 Vintage Indian . New 50's style pin striping and a bit more leather, grips, floorboards etc. It might not be everyone's taste - but I love it. Just waiting on fish tails to finish it off (for now LOL)

That looks very nice @Jase68 I love the brown leather. Although I am a Harley guy, I love the look of the engine. They are simply beautiful. Enjoy the ride.
Cheers mate, hopefully new pipes and hi flow air intake this week - and a tune. No Dyno until after warranty expires LOL. But the engine has heaps of power as it is LOL.

@motojobobo Just checking in to see how the tour went/is going? Any more pictures to share?
Our weather is just reaching riding temperatures again and I hope to be on the bike within the next few weeks.
