Katoum,
Nice pic! Did you stamp the concrete yourself ? What a great set up .And regards to the mrs.You're definetly blessed .
I finally got my bike sorted out . I found the jets front 183 back 178 .The larger goes in back though..right? I'm sure when i did it I had it right .Sooo.. I when down to 170- 175 ,Put the sommer door back,tee'd the vent to inside the box And slash cut the tube . Unbeleavable difference ! Having a well carburated and sound machine gives me a lot of confidence to ride better and smoother.I like to use a lot of engine braking to stay smooth on the twisty mountain roads.
Stay safe.

Well I finally got my 950 3 days ago - it just keeps getting better! Here's a (underexposed) picture taken at the top of 'Rest and be Thankful' after a 200 mile ride this afternoon.

Hey, can someone lend me 12 grand? Uhhhm, my dog needs surgery, yeah, thats it, my dog needs surgery. He has a fractured oblongata, or something. He was injured saving a bus full of girl scouts that was teetering on a high canyon wall. It's the truth. I swear. Amazing he survived at all, he's a real fighter, that one. Th girl scouts gave us a bunch of free cookies, but we couldn't sell enough to pay the medical bills. That and I ate a bunch of them. Cookies, not girl scouts. So be a good samaritan and donate some cash. My pup and I thank you in advance.

Oh and could ya throw in a couple hundred more for some crashbars... err I mean, to help the girl scouts buy a new bus??

But seriously, my dog wants a 950, and you wouldn't deny a poor dog his one wish in life, would you?

Where is that Rightside? Looks great and I've got to get out to find my way around this country far more in the comig Spring. I've only done the Cairngorms and around Inverness/Loch Ness so far since being up here.

Yes! Can you make it a big one like they give you when you win the Publishers Clearinghouse Sweepstakes? That would make a good photo for when my heroic canine and I are on the front page our newspaper's local section.

mrjemm · 02-10-2005, 03:01 PM

That looks to be a fantastic area for a ride or 2, I think I may well take a run over there in the near future. Cheers Rightside. Jem

mrjemm · 02-11-2005, 07:21 PM

Now to see if I can finally get pictures into this place...

Yahey! Looks like I'm a grown up now...

This, by the way is up in them thar Ladder Hills (I think), a little West of Aberdeen.

mrjemm · 02-11-2005, 07:26 PM

This is too much fun, I want to post another... Hope I don't bore y'all.

And this is down by Cruden Bay. A lovely long, but bloody cold beach.
