Today I saw a silver Connie on Sherman Way in Van Nuys, pulling into the KMart shopping center. I nearly followed you to pick your brain about the bike, but was afraid that would be too stalkerish.

Spotted a lot of Connie's of both vintages at the MotoGP in Indy this past weekend.  Anyone from this forum?
I was there and got quite a few ideas for farkles off those I saw.  I took pics of individual bikes as I walked down the aisles. Bikes parked from turn 2 on the big track curving around turn 3 and down toward turn 4. That was a bunch of bikes...and yes there were many COnnies of both styles.

I came out of work at Rolls-Royce Indianapolis today at 1PM and there was a very nice and shiny burgandy 1st gen Connie parked next to my beautiful black '09. First time I had seen it around work.

A red C10 was parked behind my red 2009 C14 at the Pike Peaks COG train parking lot... We left at 14:00 after our trip.  Hope you enjoyed your COG train ride.


Lots of C14 and C10 sightings...hope you all had a great time too!

I noticed a 1st gen in the Wishard hospital parking garage this afternoon. I have forgotten what color it was as I just got enough of a glimpse to verify it was a Connie as I was rolling out the gates in the wife's GMC Envoy.

Maroon/burgandy C10 on 63 just north of Cabool, MO today around 3:30 pm. 

We both gave a big wave, I had just finished riding through a nasty thunderstorm and was happy to see some sun and another Concours rider out in the less than ideal weather.

Saw 2 in Lake City, FL 9-20-12.
Black 2013(?) @ junction of 41 and 441 about 0840.
Maroon C10 on Baya Ave. East of the 441 around noon.
Coolest thing was that I was on my Black '09!
Usually only see them around here when in the cage or on my BRP.

Saw a Black C-14 at Moonshine Creek Campground in Balsam NC near the BRP.  We were camping there also but didn't get a chance to talk just passed by.   Spent most of the weekend at WCU for parents weekend.  We were on the black 04 C-10.

Spotted a black 2009 on RT 29 north (River Road) in NJ followed. I was the black 2011 that followed you up CR 546 to Pennington Road. Had a brief conversation at the light on RT31. Then I headed south on RT31 and you continued East on Pennington Road. Our conversation was so brief I couldn't ask if he was a member of the forums.

Spotted a 1st gen at Pucketts in Leipers Fork, TN yesterday morning after finishing my breakfast.

Also saw a 2nd gen last Friday afternoon crossing White River on 16th street in Indianapolis IN.

new PR3's (?-I didn't look that closely) Vance and Hines exhaust, risers.

Anyone out here own that bike?  I work there and see it parked every now and then.  Curious about that exhaust.

Although it wasn't my bike, I do have a 2010 with a black V&H CSOne if you have some questions.

Thanks.

Saw another 2008 on I-44 close to Rolla, MO yesterday around 4 pm.  I was headed east and threw out a big wave even if it might have been a little late.

I've passed more C10s in Eastern and Western Washington the last week than I think I have the last 2 years.  I did pass a blue 14 2 days ago, they were headed East on Hiway 16 vicinity Gig Harbor.

I saw a few today at the Boo Benefit rally in Jefferson Texas.
1. 08 Silver downtown.
2. a dark blue one turning left onto 49 from downtown. I was on the black Ninja wearing the Hi-vis jacket. I think I was the only one with a hi-vis jacket in the area.

I was on my 11 silver Connie and ran the poker run. It was 12:30 or so when I went home and got on the ninja and came back.
Lots of bikes today but I didn't get pictures. Bigger crown than the last few years.
