Vacation-Smoky Mtns.-Dragon-New Tattoo- (pics)
« on: September 28, 2009, 04:42:35 PM »
 So the wife and I been vac. in the Smokys for years. This year the 750 made the trip the best ever. I've done alot of work to the bike and it performed flawlessly. I ran the hell outa the ole 750 and did the Dragon 2 up, no problem. Even got a new tat to remember the trip by.  ;D OK, I won't ramble, although I sure could. IT WAS AWESOME !!











         And now for the moment you've all been waiting for !!  :D :D

Seems like a very cool trip. I would like to do the same thing next year.

Im glad you like your tattoo. They are not everyones cup of tea and most people that get one does like the one on the guy next to him. Its kinda the reason I like them..

 Not one .  >:( Tons of Harleys, Can Am Spyders, and crotch rockets. I was suprised, out of all those bikes didn't see any old bikes of any kind. I had to represent in a sea of crome with the 750K.  ;D Got alot of great comments on the bike. I swear I think every 50-60 something guy with a Harley had one of these bikes, "back in the day".

Thats my favorite thang about my old 78. You can tell just by how the way they are lookin at it how the conversation will go...  "Hey man is that a seventy so and so.... yeah I had one of those back when I was so and so...." you get it.  8)

And Im sure you represented the pack well enuf.

While I agree these "conversations" can sometimes be fun, I actually walked away from the "Tracy" the other day at the ferry line up. :P

I just wasn't up to all the ensuing questions that were undoubtedly going to come as I saw 4 guys approach :P

 I love my bikes, and "represent" the old 750's all over the place, but sometimes you feel like the guy in the Ferrari picking his nose. Everyone's looking ;)

Jaded ?  ........... a bit :)
