That's $2.50 a (rattle) can from SupaCheap Auto. Nearly the same colour as my Rickman (Laverda Orange). Paint is 6 months old and still soft. When I save some pennies I'll take it to Redback Race Paint and let Paul work his magic.

My son and I took a little ride/drive today. We stopped by the speedway and I took a quick pic.

Finally got my bike all done and took it for a ride around the Columbia river gorge.

Wobbly · « **Reply #5589 on:** May 10, 2015, 10:33:22 PM »

Up the Stelvio yesterday. That's as far as I got since the pass still has to be cleared of the all the snow and does not open until the end of May.

Lake Reschen, Italy, right behind Austrian border. Not too many bikes from California are seen here.

wobbly you're lucky having the alps so close by. i think i'd end up spending every weekend there.

Wobbly · « **Reply #5591 on:** May 10, 2015, 10:48:23 PM »

Look at my plate. Can't you see that I am from San Diego

I am not that close. I am stationed at LRMC, behind Kaiserslautern towards Saarbruecken. I just drive a lot, mostly with my BMW bike though because the Honda doesn't like the salt. Early April, I drove the mountains in the snow--minus 14 Celsius on the Sella.

Come and stay as my guest at my house and we go together from there on our Hondas.

all the way from san diego - that's true dedication

in my early twenties i spent a few years in constance, used to go into the alps a lot from there. you could take off for just 2-3 hours on a summer evening. would love to re-visit those roads. i'll give you a shout when i plan to head that way.
