 Tarule - those pics have a different quality of lighting about them. What kind of camera did you use?  Rich photos, good composition too.

hey Steve, not to give you a hard time but why wear the helmet, jacket and boots and no gloves! If you were to go down you`d be all skin and bones  :o

Anyway..cool photos - bike is looking sharp and I like the on-the-move-photos  ;)

cheers
Andy

Yeah, yeah, I know.  I have the gloves in the tank bag ::)  Anyway, thanks for the compliments.  ;D

This morning on the Mass Pike on the way to work.   I told the driver "Nice Ferarri, but Candy Baccus Olive Rules!"  I'm not sure he agreed...

My guess would be a polarized filter.  Most of my photography experience is with film, but a polarized lens filter has the same effect on digital pictures, too.  Richens the colors, reduces glare and deepens the color of the sky.

Hey CrashBar, nice to see your bike, I noticed you on the local forum too, we should be getting the next ride organized in a week or two when everyone's back from their vacations, we'll have some great pics for Andy then.

A few years ago I met a fine guy over the internet in another bike forum. We've been in touch since then, talking about meeting one day. After procrastinating it for some time, we decided we should make it happen or it would never happen. Last thursday we met halfway, 180 miles from either home. We had lunch together and chatted for some hours. My CB750 took the abuse of a one-day 360 mile trip with no trouble at all.

Here some pictures of that one-day excursion. Some abandoned places, like a train and a gas station, the ruins of a medieval castle, and the sunset.

Scrapvalue - great shot of the bike -we need more photos!

Raul - as usual you have done it again...if we ever had a competition for best-on-the-road photo you would certainly be in the top three! Great shots and where else can you add 70`s Hondas with medieval castles....and what a great sunset on a perfect day  ;)

cheers

Glad you like them Andy. I just remembered a couple more pictures I took last february, on a day-trip to nearby Segovia. In the ski station, and besides Segovia's roman aqueduct.

 Currently running a K&N and practically the entire bottom half of oem airbox is swiss-cheezed. 120 mains w/ 40 pilots. Tried individual pods for about a week but it ran inconsistantly; and since it carburated perfect w/ the modified oem box and Yosh headers, it went back to it and will probably remain that way. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Thought I'd post my newest video for our annual 'OLD BIKE RIDE', since the 'premier' happened on Saturday and I can't hurt anyone's feelings now for posting before they got their HiQ DVD.

I am actually riding my 73 cb350f cafe... so... its on the road!   ;D
Look for it in the stills toward the end of the video (good shot of it at 18.44) and also next to a blue cb650 during lunch at the Millsite Inn.

TOO MANY old bikes to list here... guess you'll have to watch the whole darn thing.   :)

Cool vid Heffay. I was just thinking while i was watching that it is 10 years since i last had a bike on the road, i can't believe its been that long, i didn't even have a bike license until i turned 40. That ride through the mountains had me drooling, my mates don't understand this as most of them don't ride so i am glad i have you guys to relate too.
