Here are some pics of a ride Loonette and I took last Saturday around the Urbana/Marysville/London area here in Ohio:

Those are some beautiful bikes. Also shows how customizing your bike can definitely make it your own. There are a lot of differences in them when you really start looking.

Were you able to take them across the bridge at the same time?

Sorry, couldn't resist. Nice bikes.

PFFFFFT, there's coke on my screen now. DAYUM that's funny.

Very nice. Why no shots of you guys on the bikes? I want some action shots! Covered bridges are cool.

I forgot something - Zootech - how'd you do that front fender mod? Did you cut the stock fender or get a new one painted to match?

We're both camera shy I guess...though Loonette has no reason to be.

The latter.

Very cool - last question. What's that painted piece you have on the front of the bike - just behind the front fender and in front of the motor? Is that a stock accessory? I hate seeing a nice bike and then seeing an unsightly air filter (or whatever you call it) sticking out like a sore thumb. Doesn't matter as much on some bikes as it does on others. But when you have a fancy paint job and lots of chrome and leather it just looks out of place sometimes. That whatever-it-is does a good job of covering it up.

It's called a "chin spoiler", also referred to as a "chin fairing". None of the chrome radiator covers I found looked even remotely appealing so I decided to dig deeper in my wallet and get that instead.

Nope, not on this bike...though I have seen some Honda VTX 1800's sitting on the showroom floor with them.

Very nice rides, Zoo. I dind't realize you were as close to me as you are, Columbus is a short 3 hours from here. If you get down to teh C'ton, WV area, gimme a holler.
