Now it looks more like a toy.

same. Same?

 

Looks like a fun event, I'll try to make it up there if it's not too cold

 

Looks like you will need a seat heater

 

Lol and a proper snow setup

 

Looks easier to ride in than our area lately

 

Boatercycle time!



In all seriousness though, the flooding on the west side is insane. My parents are up in Mt Vernon and the river was a couple inches away from going over the dike there. They got real lucky.

 

Haha, I've never seen that one before.

Luckily we were spared in my area other than the usual flood zones. I did see some pictures of Ebey Slough down the hill from me spilling over the dike but it was just into the flood plain area that is already just marshland. The picture above was up in Bellingham where they got hit pretty hard.

 

This is my parent's area, they're on the far side of the second half of the video. I saw the mudslide that closed I-5, too. Nutty.

 

I have a nice old heavy lined leather I wear under my vest in the winter along with a Sherpa sweatshirt that keeps me toasty in the cold. Combined with my winter chaps and gloves, I will ride out in anything. Full face and a thick neck gaiter finish it off nicely.

 

I still laugh every time I see a stretched and lowered grom or ruckus.

 

I like a stretched Metropolitan

 

well perhaps a pointless update...
honda pushed me out another two weeks

tentative ship out date is now November 25th

 

Good luck with Honda . . . I'll race you to who gets theirs first haha when did you order it?

 

When did you have a kid?

 

That would have been my dream bike as a kid I was riding this thing

 

October 12th I put down my deposit

peter pan syndrome

 

Put my deposit down 3-26-21 haha good luck . . .

 

you are waiting for a grom right?

did your dealership give you any info?

 

I call them every few Mondays or so. They always say it’s still on schedule for date A until it passes then it’s still on schedule for date B until it passes ha. The wife wants one so it’ll be here for next riding season . . .

 

went on a ride today with @iismatthew and his friend, and those guys ride hard and fast. Im more of a cruise and take in the scenery, while they are getting off the seat and getting into each curve. I was also trying to take it easy and not crash on new tires and colder ground.

Tried the LS2 helmet with ear plugs and the L cheek pads. Much better, but I still returned it. I was planning on ordering the HJC DS-X1, but wanted to ask first.. If I am comfortable in an Icon Airmada XL, but the LS2 XL didnt fit as tight as I liked.. Should I order the HJC in XL or L ? Anyone have experience with HJC?
