I downsized from my Tenere 1200 a while back ... I'm going to get a mid-sized scoot at some point, but this is a fun grocery getter in the meantime.

Beauty of a bike @anodyne !

@Denimhead-0 The bike with the ferris wheel in the background has a lot of potential. Just looking at it I'm thinking of all kinds of different angles and perspectives I might use to compose that shot. Where is that?

@motojobobo Thanks! The addiction started early ...

Casino Pier, Seaside Heights

@Denimhead-0 I’ve never been there,and it’s not that far from Bradley Beach. Looks like a good spot for photography. Is that the pier that was destroyed from hurricane Sandy?

A blast from the past. That’s me while riding the 2014 Sheetiron 300. Photo by Bungee Brent.

Back in Perth for the past couple weeks and finally finding some time to work on the ninja 250R that has been sitting around for about 3 years.

A new battery is definitely needed for starters. But the bike wouldn’t fire and idle without starting fluid. Pulled it apart and cleaned the carbs. Now after, the bike couldn't idle without the throttle being pinned. The moment the throttle came off, it would die.

I’m giving one last shot tomorrow with the new battery and see if it will idle. If not, I would have to get someone to work on it..

I’ve successfully resisted buying a phone mount for my bike for 10 years but @Denimhead-0 ’s cool selfies of IH gear on his bike are likely to defeat my resolve.

You and me both comrade.

@motojobobo I bought an Insta360 and returned it. It was too complicated for me Simple phone mount, set it and forget it.

Went for a ride this morning. It’s a beautiful day here in NorCal and the weather was perfect in the AM.

Shit happened last sunday. Blew out rear tire at around 100km/h. Lucky to be in one piece, I was able to keep the bike upright and luckily there wasn't incoming traffic just at that time. Took me several hundred meters to tame the bike which was swerving from lane to lane...

Wow, good that you survived the accident. And in any case, a cool bike. Is that an official license plate?

[injunjack]

@endo
Yes, old original finnish plate to this bike from early 50's. Bike is from 1925...with few upgrades

@injunjack cool bike, glad you are safe

[68degreesorless]

That is terrifying. Glad you are ok.
