Re: good morning from Vancouver!
update from several months ago:
bike is up to about 5000km, very little riding during winter but a short ride every few weeks when weather permitted. Taking an intermediate/advanced course starting next weekend
this is the bike as it currently sits (fender eliminator and led turn signals are the newest addons)

Re: good morning from Vancouver!


Good to hear from you again. I was up at Burnaby Kawasaki couple of weeks back getting some parts for my old Connie, they have some nice bikes sitting there looking for owners. Been commuting by bike now for a couple of weeks, but next Friday she is going in for spring servicing and then its just a waiting game for the weather to clear and the mountain roads to dry up.
Always ask why.
