Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

finally got my new visor which came 3 days after the gfs helmet showed up even thou i ordered mine first lol. i wanted gold mirror like my icon but sedici doesnt make one for the duale.. so silver it is!

also after her having the new helmet for two days she also agrees the icon airflight is a terrible helmet.... lots of wind noise doesnt seal well around the visor. heavy and clunky and awkward. overall just a bad design that i bought because it looked cool oh to waste 450 bucks years ago!

 

There's a reason why the wife is in between the dude and the money...

 

Looks nice, I need a new helmet again. Soon…..

 

thanks! i was wanting a carbon fiber helmet this go around and found this one in forged carbon so couldnt say no lol. the silver mirror is really neat thou all the product photos showed it basically just being a light silver that was fully see through thankfully it isnt lol.

what brand you thinking you will get?

 

Not sure, need to hit store up. Find one that hides my ugly dome.

 

I think she'll be fine. She likes to be carried and "hug" me....so she should do well.

 

That’s how my kids feel about everything I own! But I’m OK with it bc they are fully functional adults who love me!

 

Just got back from my anniversary dinner. We had sushi. It was 30yrs ago today that I tied the knot. Been a crazy journey but I would do it all again. Can’t believe she has put up will all my shenanigans. I must be doing something right.

 

Congrats to both of you!

 

Cycle gear in Kansas is good they have a lot of stuff.

Haha that works!

But what if you wish to keep it!?

 

she must really love your monkey...

 

Been MIA lately. Spending literally every second I can on this girl since I got her back.

 

this is the one where you lost it on gravel right?

how did the repairs come out?

 

By the looks.....gonna say.....great

 

well ya lol just wondering ya know!

 

From what I remember, it wasn't too bad. I think the speedo was the worst part.

Keep your Groms and Monkeys, this is what I lusted after when they were out.

 

Iconic Motorsports had their hands on one of those a few months ago and posted some videos of them doing shakedown runs after fixing them up. Those little guys screaaaamed along. Looked like a blast

 

They came out in 1986 or 1987 I think? I had my FJ1100 and my nephews were like 3 and 7 or something like that and they'd seen my 1100 often. I wanted to borrow one of those and ride it over to their house and tell them my bike had gotten caught in the rain and it shrank. Would have made for an awesome joke to play on a little kid......

 

This isn't too far up the road from me.
