I'm working hard on that number this year. Last year it was all about track schools in the Bimmer, this year I'm riding. It's WAY cheaper!

I want 200,000 by 2/9/2016

Ebbett's pass just opened up a few days ago. I looove Hwy 4.

Edit, apparently they forgot to enable HTML in this forum. I'll go mention it to the admins. If they don't bother reenabling it I'll come back and edit the pics, but I don't want them too big and I can't change that with BBCode....

Yay for getting a forum for this!

Just sold my first bike on Saturday (82 Kawasaki Spectre 750 - or KZ750N1, the shaft drive version of the KZ line). :( Kinda miss her. But, I'm currently working on a 96 Honda CBR600 F3 I picked up. Trying to nurse her back to reasonable health. She's not in pretty shape cosmetically, but what a completely different feel from the Kawi. :freakdanc: I may just enjoy her for a while and sell it for something else later on, or I may get all new plastics, since the frame and all that seems to be in decent shape.

Mods on the CBR are a Yoshi exhaust and K&N filter. Also has a rear fender elimination and front flush bubble turn signals. Just gave her all fresh Honda OEM fluids, NGK plugs, and she's having the carbs cleaned and rejetted as we speak. I don't know what the mechanic plans to use for the jets yet.

JVR & Kris....I'm so jealous of you guys. :( No good riding roads anywhere close around here. No fair. I love all those Peninsula roads. :yumyum:

Anyway, a few horrible pics. Sorry. The white balance got changed by accident and it was starting to rain so I didn't take time to play with it. Old pics (and have my Mazda6 rental in the background), I'll try to get some new ones later on.

The only surviving pic of them together and assembled :rofl::

The Kawasaki w/ my old E39.....how sad, both gone now:

I got down and busy on the bike (together shots as well, even the Jag made it in!):

Nice beginner bike. But I think she will quickly outgrow it. I think an EX500 would have been a better choice, but I fully understand the "smokin' deal" thing. :)

(OT but, how come my pic didn't show in this thread? Is it because it was linked to carmudgeons??)

[Edit: fixed]

eh, I don't think she'll outgrow it that quickly. I would, but I don't think she will.

I picked this bike up 60 miles away. I could easily ride it 10k miles and sell it for 50% more than I paid. That's how good of a deal I got. Yeah, carmudgeons must not allow remote referrers.

Damn. That IS a screamin' deal alright. :yikes:

I'll have to put my pic on my Bimmerfest album then....

[buells1]

This is my ride......

[jiggapoo]

Howdy, Beemers. Good news locally and good luck to them--a fellow is opening a BMW dealer in Chattanooga. The paper quoted "more than 500" BMW owners in the area. Uhh... I know one other one besides me.

Without further doo: 1988 K75S, 101k miles. 740cc FI triple.

Latest maintenance was rebuilt injectors ($65 / set), fluid changes. No major problems beyond my intermittent tach.

[Weston Bimmer]

My GSX-R1000 with nitrous, although I really hope to be on a BMW next spring. We'll see...

[docedkin]

'05 K1200LT w/109K. Hannigan sidecar added this spring. Sidecar has rolled just over 9K.
Car? '09 335i E92, ED.

My GSX-R1000 with nitrous, although I really hope to be on a BMW next spring. We'll see...

When I think "Gixxer 1K", I think, "needs more power."

[thumper_330]

Here's my ride; 2008 Kawasaki Concours 14 ABS. I love this bike, but it was a close call between this and a Beemer...

[Weston Bimmer]

KrisL, yeah, I know, I know... :)

[KrisL]

KrisL, yeah, I know, I know... :)

When one lives in areas with mountain roads, they realize that they don't need more power.

Here's my current bike.....05 1200GS. It has been feeling pretty lonely though since I picked up my ZHP a few months ago....

And the bike that I take my screen name from.....75 Maico 250. German made and they were well known for their excellent handling. Sound familiar?:)

http://mrmaico.smugmug.com/Motorcycles/Barrys-pictures/Maico3/73350453_kkJQs-L.jpg

The Maico with my old 72 2002. These two pics are from about 35 years ago, I was in to German bikes and cars and now after a break of 20 years I once again find myself owning a couple Germans.
