Rode down and spent the night in LaCrosse, VA.  Then took a 50 mile detour and rode across the dam and through Mecklenburg County, VA on the way home.
I am jealous. Its the ski season here in Canada :)

I had this done over the summer. Just getting around to posting the pics. Some old school pin striping.

Nice pics. That had to be an amazing trip. Although I would imagine that the Dalton was a challenge, especially on a Connie

Dalton is hard but doable. Extremely slippery when wet. The weight of a heavy loaded Connie does not help at all..

Finally got mine, after looking for about a year or so!  Great deal.  2012, purchased new in 13, and I got it from the original owner.  Sargent seat, canyon bars, bit Vtech shield, throttlemaster.  Got an issue with the TPS sensor and gonna post bout that in the forum cause the local dealer may be jerking me around.  Love the bike!  It is my only transportation while I am in grad school the next three years, but loving the ride, even in the 33 degree weather today!  Just did 1000 miles in the past two weeks getting it back to grad school.

I'm enjoying riding bagless these days. Small mini tool box and a "No Drag" back pack covers 95% of my riding and I only put my bags on for travelling.

What's a 'lound' pipe anyways?     ;)

Does 'lound' means 'big ass exhaust can'?    ;D

Signature corrected....nice catch Conrad. Does anybody have any ideas on how to enlarge my stock pipe? Maybe a 55 gallon drum with some fiberglass packing? Wait a minute....the stock pipe is 55 gallons. Never mind. :>) I think I need to update my signature though.

Yep, west of Comstock TX and east of Langtry TX.

I want to head over that way sometime to check out Big Bend.

When you do, be sure to ride up into the basin in the park, and also west of Lajitas on Fm 170 at least as far as the big hill.


An excellent time to go---->: http://www.cog-online.org/clubportal/EventDisplayNew.cfm?clubID=1328&EventID=227322&mo=10&tDate={d%20%272016-10-01%27}

Not mine, obviously. Saw a video from 2013 homecoming of 1st Battalion Scots Guards Homecoming and noticed this:

They replaced the saddle bag lids (or re-worked them to be thinner) and of course, put a whole bunch of decals on the bike and low profile tip over bars.

There was/is a company selling those slim-line lids.
