The only RV's Nancy and I have.

I am ordering some new brackets to hold the saddle bags on both bikes and $500.00+ upgrades to my dual front disk brake system.
(Don't spread it around but I have my eye on a $500.00 helmet also)

The Triumph looks good. What is hiding behind it?

My Triumph SpeedMaster.
:D

Nancy and I may be Americans but We know what the World's Greatest Motorcycle is.

They are certainly good looking.
Did you have any trouble teaching the Limey bikes to run on the right side of the road?:D

Jeff-Groves 03-13-15 06:48 PM

Only thing I hate is they have to have the left side shift thing.
All my old Trumph's had the 'proper' right side shifter.
I plan to build a crossover kit to fix that mistake.
:D

Incase one wonders what is on the Tank.

The only thing I ever dared get on in my youthful two-wheeler days! Weird; I do Cessna's, Freightliners, horses and SCUBA at night in the middle of the Pacific ocean alone...motorcycles however simply exceed my head-on-a-swivel comfort level:hmmm: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...Norton_850.JPGNorton Commando

The last time I was on a motorcycle was in the late 70's. IF I were to get another one it would have to be a H-D pie wagon. (This doddering old fool is getting too old for 2 wheels.)

Jeff-Groves 03-13-15 07:17 PM

Get a Spyder.

They look goofy. A pie wagon with a air cooled VW motor would work good.

@ Schroeder: I don't know how to do that, I'll have to learn how.

@Eichhörnchen
You know you can put more than one picture in a post? ;)

Here is my ride from a bad angle:

I never progressed beyond the 500-4 and soon became involved with the consequences of crazy motorists actions which put me right off bikes.

Well, it's just like putting one picture into a post. You upload the image, copy the link, insert it into the post. Upload the next picture, copy the link and insert it under the first one in your post and so on... really simple.

Eichhörnchen 03-14-15 08:54 AM

I get it... you mean like this:

Precisely! Plus every one I know has ultimately been in a serious or fatal accident. It's a % thing and with the amount of regular driving and sleeper-team'd SEMI-trucks at the time...ad reducto risko if ya wanna see 64! Made my brothers quit once their kids arrived-live daddies required here!...for once they saw the light. My sister in law, a giantess of a probation officer, just totaled her lower leg in a rear-ender on her Harley Sportster; healed up and got back on a new one and just did the Sturgis SD rendezvous.:huh:

I stay away from Donor Cycles. I've seen too many riders get racked up.:timeout:

What's that CBR stand for ... Crotch busting Rocket?:O:
