Beautiful day to be out riding.  Went down to the Yorktown beach to see this replica French ship that Lafayette sailed over to the U.S. on, but they had the street blocked off and cars were parked all over the place, people walking all over the place, so I just kept going...

That's a keen eye! I wondered if anyone would notice. Had an extra F2 guard laying around so I thought I'd give it a go. I like it!  8)

You and me both. :)
I replaced mine on purpose for that reason just as I replaced the horn with one from the earlier models (chrome).

Went on a quick ride this morning before it got hot. Saw these 2 Urals with sidecars. Talked to them at a popular stopping place. Both new, had brembo brakes, decent suspension, pretty nice. Didn't know they were still making these.
Wish I got pics, all I have is gopro helmet cam video..

haha, well it was a 300km trip one way. So I thought, why not sit on my pillow, worked perfect  ;D
Will get a new seat this winter, bit thicker, this one sucks on long drives...
