Nope. NW Indiana, and they are new... part of the repaint. They're under the clear too. Nice touch.

One of the best gifts you can give your kids, is the gift to be self sufficient. He might not realize it now, but will once I'm gone...
Took a nice weekend trip through the White Mountains with the wife and a friend. Great ride.
New paint on the '96... but no sunshine to show it off...
180 Bonanza? I had one back in the day…
I don't know if it was a "Bonanza" or not, Yamaha, definitely 180cc, a two stroke. I remember buying it used for $157 I earned bussing tables at my uncles restaurant. Had to throw in the extra $7 for a new battery.
Mom didn't like it one bit.
Thank you,

2-stroke twin, Looks like a 1967 or maybe 1968 Yamaha ? maybe 200cc or 350cc . Could be a CS or YM or YD ? cant remember there were a few different models . It not a RD but it was predecessor to the Yamaha RD's 2-stroke twins in the 70's . We used to build those little 350 RD twins over, bored out and pistons, they ran like a Raped Ape on the street.

Definitely a 180 Bonanza, I had a red one, 1967. I had 16 motorcycles bought and sold by my sr year in HS…
701 perfected! Looks like something out of Manuel Lucchese's shop!
~300 miles in SW Wisconsin with some buddies today.
Pretty positive I saw one of you gentlemen today. Too bad he didn’t have rear view mirrors. I can’t even imagine the paranoia that would have been birthed, seeing a LEO obviously taking his picture.
1990 XRV 750 Africa Twin. Took a cruise from Seattle to central IL. 3165 miles. Not a bad shakedown ride.
Met some folks, in Buffalo WY I believe, with this rig a Triumph with what I believe is a Ural side car.

Added a chopped tour pack to it last month. Makes a huge difference when riding with my wife onboard. The tour pack has 3” of adjustment forward and back making it’s easy to position for the best possible ride comfort.
Took my AT from eastern WA lo Las Vegas with friends on Harleys.
They laughed until I left them in the dust on all the straightaways and their tough guy bikes (both bikes) broke and one had parts fall off.

Given the tremendous outpouring of love that everyone has for HD lately I wanted to share these pics of the completed scooter.
Had the rims powder coated along with a few other pieces, new skins, a full inspection and we're back in business. Probably get the belt guard done also. I always thought this bike had waaayy too much chrome/silver on it so I tried to balance it out some and stay distinctive. Purchased NIB in October of 2003. 5668 original miles. Ride safe members!

The bike meh, where can I get a pair of those pants?!?!?!
I believe I got them to match the shoes, likely Sears and Roebuck. Big bells were the way to go!
It's a honor to share a website with someone, such as yourself, who exhibits such refined fashion sense!

You can ride pretty much the length of the pipeline on the access road except for the parts through military bases. Do I recall that right?
Pretty much. Not sure about the pumping stations, and there are unbridged rivers. Some spots that are very steep.
Just completed the Idaho BDR on a KLR 650 with 5 friends
Corn won’t even grow here. Yes, oil is big, but the oil fields are far away. The Alaska Pipeline is 800 miles long. We’re about in the middle. Here’s one of the rivers I mentioned that aren’t bridged. You have to go back to the last access road, ride out to the highway to cross, then find the next access road to get back to the pipeline.
