Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

Mounted up a cheap box for fishing gear. Waiting on rod holders to arrive so my little beach fishing rig can come together

 

State inspection.

Around here at least, I think we’d be better served with them doing driver inspections.

 

Snow on the ground now. Longing for last summer:

 

How do you like the 701? It was pretty high up on my list at one point in time.

 

If you put every motorcycle ever made on a spectrum from dirt to street, the 690/701 is the dead center dividing line between the two genres.

I purchased this 2019 701 specifically for a 2-week on/off road ADV camping trip around Lake Michigan, and it was 100% the best bike for that purpose.

If I had to have only one "do all" bike for the rest of my life, it would be that 701, however you do have to be OK with the compromises (slow and difficult on single track, not comfortable for extended highway cruising).

 

Someone got a 36 degree bubble bath and chain clean/lube today



All the road spray had her filthy as hell.

You are crazy. That thing looks like a lot of fun though

 

Did you Ban them for saying something crazy like that?

 

I'm pretty sure I could build the entirety of a CT90 faster than I could build this lego motorcycle. I'm about halfway through the entire build and have 5 or 6 hours into it so far

 

Now that is a man's tank & seat cover. Respect. I picture you as the dude that hands Macklemore the flag in the intro here (dude has seen some shit, wise, living in a snow cave and whatnot) I've never met a Husqy rider that hasn't seen some shiite...

 

I taught these guys everything they know.

 

Took a break from the BMW to build set 42132. Muuuuch faster build.

 

I think we’re at the same exact point. Bonus points is you can figure out the mistake I made.

 

Chain not routed correctly, maybe? I spent way too much of my morning flipping back and forth between the pictures to try and spot it haha.

Starting on the 4th set of bags tonight!
