In the beginning, I did a lot of riding w/ my brother in law in the neighborhoods and then the local routes (I live in NJ). The last 2 rides were long rides w/ my husband, one to Tuckerton, South Jersey and one in the Princeton area. It might not be a lot to most of you, but I've put 720 miles on my bike.

Tuckerton is a favorite destination of Mrs. Stark and I. :) Did you go all the way out Great Bay Boulevard across the 5 bridges?

We went all the way to the end of 539(?) and ended up at wharf(?) and everyone was fishing and/or crabbing.

Went back to Tuckerton on Labor Day and then to LBI. Put another 100+ miles...

Hey,
Still "no mods yet"?
If so, what would you like to mod on your bike now that you've had it for a while?

Is that a gs 500e that one of those guys is riding in the pics?
Kick to start.

wld like to change the exhaust, led lights, modified brake lights, little things like that. I've only been riding since April this year so I've only had the bike and been riding for only 7 months.

As for the guys, we all ride GS's. Mine's a 95 (blue), Sarat's is 94 (yellow), Vince's is 96 (black) & Wayne's is a 92 (naked black).
