The tiny woman I ride with is 66, and wears bike shorts under her chaps. Incredible, for any age, let alone 66. Nice view. She's 5'2" and 110. Her High School weight. She's really gotten into the Harley riding attire. Not so much for me. I use good stuff. If it says Harley on it, that's ok. Riding since 1972.

I've decided to park the dirt bikes though The Protege vid got me Jonesin' for a ride. It's too crowded here to risk ending up in a hospital right now. Maybe in a couple weeks.

I ride a 2018 Suzuki VStrom 1000 adventure bike. Its currently out of commission because yesterday I removed the seat then drove over to Terrys Custom seats to have it reworked and recovered. He does amazing work but is really booked up. I had a deposit with him for 6 months. Seat should be finished next week. Am hoping to find a used small 250 or so dual sport to play around with in the near future
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

For drunkingly threatening a wannabe commando? Sure.. Posting his personal information and making threats against his pre-teen daughter- - - - -after getting banned twice before under different handles- - - - -yep, you're a real knight in shining armor. IGNORE! Jerry You should probably get your timeline straight if you're going to hate somebody for an action over 7 years ago. Here goes. 1. I let him know I know his personal info and the info of everyone in his household. Never directly threatened him and sure dont know where you got the idea that I threatened his kid. 2. Got booted off. 3. Came back 4. Booted off. 5. Came back. 6. Booted off. So, the bannings came after the original act, which makes more sense than your scenario above. The cool thing is that your band of buddies isnt here in a PC crowd to help you talk schit like these guys here have witnessed of you.

Can I please come play? Looks awesome. Oh heck yes, motorcycles are the "ultimate" in so many ways. Weather it be social distancing, therapy, fun, bonding with your kiddos, spouse, friends etc... Motorcycles, no matter street or dirt, are simply good for the soul. Can't imagine a life without. I think the words printed on the image below sums it up succinctly for this dirt biker. A few from over the last few years with my kids, friends and spouse. with my oldest son.. and youngest son.. with the spousal unit.. with friends.. after the ride..

Both of those are good looking bikes. I'd BET that Vstrom is lighter than the FJR. My pard bought his Vstrom new and has 65 K + miles on it. He and his bike are below your pix.
Nuttin like a 2 wheeler.
EVERYBODY ride alert.
Jerry jwall, thanks. Yep, it is significantly lighter, even though it is not considered light. Ride alert indeed. Beware the cagers and ride like you are invisible and everybody is out to get you.

I started riding a friend's Harley 165 in 1958. 62 years later I'm still at it. Now a lot of my rides are with the Patriot Guard Riders, making a final tribute to one of my fellow veterans with a flag line and a funeral escort. Jerry

We also make frequent visits to veterans' homes and vets' hospitals- - - -it's a lot more pleasant spending time with the live ones! Jerry

160 hp of pure haul ass on a comfortable bike that can pull light off road duties. That’s a sweet ride, got to luv them Ducs’. Is that a multistrata 1260? When the weather breaks I’ll try and take a few pics of the Monster 1200r.
