Did my first ever trip with my K75 RT last week. Only five days off to the beautiful coast of Northern France. So great!

First official (not in the parking ramp) ride of the year yesterday.

It was 36 degrees fahrenheit, definitely wish had a windshield. The battery needs to be replaced as well, I was lucky to get it started. Anyways, it was great to get out again after a long winter. Time to get it ready for the rest of the season.

I went down to the Cathedral of St. Paul. Sorry, this pic does not give the Cathedral justice. This is looking at the left trancept:

Wow, you are a motivated biker if you rode yesterday. Yes, it was "warm" for MN but also wet and icy!
Mine is still apart, I just ordered some parts (throttle body ducts) which will take a week before I can even start putting her back together. My goal is to have her running by May.
I didn't know you had the bike in town with you during the school year. If you ever need a garage to work on her, just let me know, I'm just across the river in S Mpls (42nd and Cedar). I'd be glad to meet you and help you out. Sunday afternoons are my normal time for wrenching on the bike.
BTW, I don't know if its just me but I can't see your picture.

Thanks a ton for the offer, I may have to take you up on it sometime, as I don't have too many tools up here, not to mention the parking ramp isn't the most ideal wrenching location. If I can't do it with duct or electrical tape and a Swiss Army knife, I'm done for. Luckily I haven't needed more than that yet (This summer I'm going to put together a tool kit).

Yesterday was kind of the preliminary ride, see what's up after the winter. Over spring break I'm going to do as much work as I can to get her ready for summer. I may say good-bye to the RT fairing. I'll put something in the wrenching part of the forum when the time comes.

Thanks for letting me know about the picture, I've been using Dropbox and it will work in the preview, but not when it's posted. I may just switch over to photo bucket, it seems to work well for everyone else.

Thanks again, hopefully I'll see you around. Good luck on your wrenching.

I done rode around the block ... twice ... in the snow ... about five miles. But it felt huge! First time I've heard my motor since November, after I succeeded in redoing the injector O-rings (2 of them) that I mangled when I installed my refurbed injectors. Can't wait for some warm days! This is going to be a great year for riding, I can feel it.

Rode a few hundred miles around East Texas yesterday and today. Spent the night at Boykin Springs Camping Area. Nice weather for camping this time of year.

Not a lot to say. My first ever interstate moto trip. No ride report, but thought the occasion merited a post. Cottonwood AZ to Springerville AZ to Santa Fe (or that was the plan) NM. http://goo.gl/maps/uj1ov. Absolute blast with great riding weather.

TimTyler · « **Reply #435 on:** April 24, 2013, 01:48:47 AM »

Roughly 500 mile loop with a quick stop at Washington Pass on the North Cascades Highway.

Salt River Canyon (AZ Hwy 60/State Road 77 out of Show Low).

I rode my Teutonic beast to my buddies farm in Orange VA last weekend for some beers, flyfishing, mowing and birthing some calfs. She's not pretty. But she is a brute and I love her. She's never let me down. I ride her to work every day. A paltry 15 miles direct. But for some reason or other, many days end up being 40 or 50 miles home. Hmmmmm??

Since I bought my first BMW a couple years ago I've found myself leaving my house early and going for a ride for an hour during my six-mile commute to work.

Nice bike by the way. I love the white RS with the pinstripes.

Lbyvik · « **Reply #439 on:** May 02, 2013, 07:39:55 AM »

yeah...so I rode the K1100 to work today. These are some pics of my commute. Really sux. The RS is that Hot chick from the soccer team you dated for a month in your youth who was hell in bed. She just wants to GET THERE FAST AND HARD. Where the LT is that triathlete...athletic and powerful, but also patient and willing to take her time while arriving at the destination with care and class.

So here are some pix of my commute and "Angie" the '93 LT....

Owned the bike for a couple months now and my last attempt at a ride I started to have ignition issues and cut it short. Today it ran flawless.

Started my Day by hitting the Meet at http://www.bulldawgmusclecars.com/ new shop. I was a good way up I75 so I decided to Run Fort Mountain Hwy 52 between Chatsworth GA and Ellijay GA.

Lovely Sunday afternoon zooming around back roads in western Wisconsin. One of them was marked "Rustic"!

TimTyler · « **Reply #449 on:** August 11, 2013, 08:11:33 PM »

East over the mountains then north into British Columbia then west over the mountains then south back home. Three days. With my buddy Scot on his Honda.

Day three was 09:00 to 04:00 from Kelowna, BC to Olympia, WA, and the first half of that was some of the most spectacular riding I've ever experienced.
