another good long ride today,down through uki,stokers siding then to the beach at kingscliff,nice 75 trident,,,we also had a goldwing,vstrom and t100,,,the trident and mine make the best noise!

the trident has an alphabet exhaust.

i didnt notice the camera settings had gotten bumped in my jacket so they are all a bit pink?

Nice one Dave. I just logged on while I'm on my meal break. Saw this & thought how much I would've enjoyed that rather than being at work.

Above 50 deg. today in Nashville, so me and the Mrs. goofed-off and rode to Gladeville Tn ....
Sweetie rode the K1 all the way home and i rode 'Prince Charles '

.... decided she didn't like
the'Euro' bars on the 750, prefers the stockers on her 650

andrewk · « **Reply #2270 on:** January 05, 2012, 04:48:45 PM »

It hit 62 in Iowa today. I took the 750 out and took this pic while I was running errands.

It's going to be a great year for riding!

dhall57 · « **Reply #2271 on:** January 07, 2012, 11:57:05 AM »

Its 68 in Greensboro NC today so I've been out and about on the KO

If Im not mistaken this is the Randleman Lake Reservoir along Hwy 220 in Randleman NC. Between dodging traffic I snapped these pics. I thought some water scenery would be nice

This 42 year old KO goes down the hwy so good. I bought it in May of 2011 and all I've done to the engine is oil change, plugs, adjust valves, clean carbs, K&N air filter, adjust cam chain, clean points

You built them good Mr. Honda.

Greggo · « **Reply #2272 on:** January 07, 2012, 12:00:02 PM »

That bike is beautiful D! Looks like some good riding.

dhall57 · « **Reply #2273 on:** January 07, 2012, 12:16:22 PM »

Oh Yeah !!!
