Thanks, the antenna is for UHF radio which is connected to a bluetooth hub (Sena SR10) both which live in the glovebox which is bluetoothed to my helmet headset and mic.
Great for coms bike to bike in the mountains.
Can stay out of each other dust and get at least a few kilometers range.

Another visit from Hochtouren. His bike is also rapidly transforming into what it should be. Great work on the low fender chop job.

Pretty cool having 2 of these rigs in tha 'hood!

Swung by MEC at about 8 am on my errand ride to see if you were there but guess I missed ya. Looks like a great ride!

Installed the super beefy CJ sidestand relocator. Being built out of recylced WWII Sherman tanks, it should hold up well

Starting to come together...

Beauty of a Sunday morning ride. Had to be quick as the wife has to go see her patients at noon so took it easy and just explored.

Blackalac · 04-29-2012, 11:21 AM

Great ride through the Finger Lakes high country in Western N Y

EOD3MC · 04-29-2012, 01:04 PM

Just got done with a three day weekend riding the forest roads and trails in West Virginia. First time I've gotten to really ride it offroad. Damn I love this bike.

With the exception of it throwing me 15 and into some thorn bushes...great ride this weekend

Had an inmate PM me about my graphics so I shared the link to the shop that did it. While I was on their site I noticed that I'M ON THEIR SITE!

Took the new bike out for first dirt today, went around Mt. Si up in North Bend WA, some road washouts have created a new creek, but no worries. What truly incredible bikes these are - big smile still on my face!
