Post pictures of your Motorcycle!

Thanks! Here's a few more better pictures!

 

Do you put your foot down around high speed corners ???????

 

Here's a picture of the XR's cousin!! 2012 Sporster '48

 

And a pic of my other bike. 2007 SV650.

 

Mike what model is your bike?

That's a sweet looking ride, bet you it sounds nice!

 

Mine is a 2000 1200c

 

Cape Spear, Newfoundlnd. the easternmost place you can get to in North America.



Anchor Point, Alaska. The westernmost place you can get to by road in North America.



Key West, Florida. The southernmost point in the US.



The geographic center of the lower 48.



Yellowknife, Northwest Territories.

 

That sir is way cool...

 

I ride with a buddy who has a 48... That 2.1 gallon tank is a killer. The low fuel light comes on at like 60 miles

 

Thanks, that bike has covered some ground this year.

I expect to haul this one to the mountains with my Tacoma.

 

Cool is it pretty uncomfortable to ride because of the footpeg position?

 

I know I have a gazillion pictures of it on here already...

 

No, I actually find it to be quite comfortable as most the bikes I have had, had similar positioning of the pegs. Here was my last street bike.

 

That is awesome!

 

Thats good I've only set on a few sportsters one had the pegs a little farther forward than yours but not to much. I could barely get my feet up on them and Im not even that tall(6'1). I like riding smaller bikes though because I can throw them around easily.

 

I want one so bad... its like the lil swiss army bike. Use it for everything

 

My Nightster has a 3.3 gallon tank, I need to fill up about 50 miles before I'm ready to take a break. I think the 4.5 gallon tank would be just about right. I can't even imagine living with a 2.1 gallon tank.

 

Over the shoulder picture.



One of the spots we rode too

 

The feet-under-yer-butt footpeg position is more comfortable than the feet-forward position. It rotates your hips forward and straightens out your back. It also takes a little weight off your butt. With your feet under your center of gravity, it makes it easy to push down when you're about to nail a big bump and reduces the shock to your back. Cruiser guys like the feet forward position because with a low seat, the knee bend is not as great. The ergos on the XR are more like a standard bike and the feet-under-butt position works for it.

I like that XR1200.

 

Thanks. That thing is a Honda NT700V. It was a big seller in Europe, but not so much a success when they finally brought it to the US. There aren't very many around, however, it makes a great touring bike. That's saying something, coming from someone who has owned BMWs for 40 years. The bike has a bit over 52,000 miles on it; 25,000 this year.
