Awesome TT RDHS!

Now that's what I call taking your balls out of your purse and going for a ride!
I've never understood why people think that winter is a time to park a motorcycle....

LOL you're f**cking NUTS! Any permanent pinch marks on your seat when you got home?

Your balls are as big as a mountain, my friend.

Wish I were as brave as you.

Thanks, everyone...
But to be honest, we were in that snow for probably only about 40 minutes. After we came down off that mountain top, it was only rain for the rest of the day.

This one's for you "ChiTown"...

Keep in mind that this thermometer reads a good 5 degrees colder than what the temperature really is..

On a side note, TT RDHS, you are quite the man.

Edit: Oh how I miss those fuel prices. Currently $3.29 for regular and $3.49 for diesel. I plan on using the bike much more this summer to offset fuel costs. Too bad I always go for a 20-30 mile ride on the bike after work, thus completely negating any fuel savings.

A week ago Saturday. Highway 78 to Julian, California.

What are those things sticking off of your bike near the handlebars? They look like little white "fins". I dunno. Never seen anything like 'em before.

Hey I was in Santa Ysabel on my white one a week ago Saturday. Did Mesa Grande and Rainbow enr home. Maybe next time we'll hook up.

Those are part of the bracket from a Vstream windscreen. I got rid of the screen, but haven't been able to remove the bracket yet because I stripped a bolt head.

I thought that maybe they were some kind of new, revolutionary air deflectors that would solve all of our buffetting problems.

I think he DID solve the buffeting problem...

Heh, should have thought about my response a bit more.. Oh well, too late now.

I hate my Vstream and will probably take it off. Are you planning to replace it with another screen?

That never happens to me because I edit my posts about 8 times so I always sound flippant and clever. ( ) It's hard work being so spontaneous.

My new 2009. Not fully farkled yet...

Thanks to cwrose for hosting these photos for me.

Welcome home, Talon Six. You have impeccable taste in BMW motorcycles.

Matt still has 16 days left before coming home. I think these were photos taken by his dealership. Anyway, that's some determination. I thought I was crazy for ordering my bike from a catalog, but this takes the cake; purchasing the bike halfway across the world and having it sit in your driveway teasing you while you can't ride it.
