    Well, in all honesty... I took that picture after I failed to make that hill behind it (read: I ate it). After I finished dragging the bike around and put it up, I had to take a short break to catch my breath => time for a photo :D

    Here's another one of me parking on that day..

    Who makes the full crash bars for the GS like the GS A? I see a few GS's here with the crash bars.

    Just picked up a 2008 red gsa from a fellow inmate Thursday. I guess it was about empty... Put 8.63 gal into it! Book says 8.7 usable...

    DId a little 200 mile ride yesterday (up to 87 degrees; sorry Northerners), and the computer says I still have 280 until empty! Loving the bike; great sound, power and comfort. Now if I was only 6'3 I could probably climb on a little easier... :norton

    No pic's yet. Can't stop long enough...

    congrats, Lance
    can't wait to see the pictures
    enjoy every mile

    oh,
    and the bike won't travel 480 miles on a tankful of gas
    fill up again and check the "accuracy" of your FUEL STRIP......
    good luck

    This post is worthless without pictures. Bro:freaky

    Does this mean I'll need to get a 990 to keep up?

    If your Adventure doesn't paw the sky out of corners like this one, you're not revving it above 5,500 RPM!

    ABS turned off for sure!

    Sorry for the lack of pic's, but I can't stop once I get started. Plus, I live in Fl, so there's pretty much sucky scenery around me... I know, the beach, sand etc... But I don't live there....
