Cool Hello to all my biker brothers and sisters

Purchased this 2003 Kaw, Nomad new. The bike has been flawless. Battery lasted 5 years. All I had to do so far is regular maintenance, keep her clean and replace worn tires. A few pics of the bike, me and the miss's.
Recently purchased a 2011 Puma 21 TFU Toy Hauler to put her in. We will make the maiden voyage soon!

Have had 15 bikes since I got the "itch" over 40 years ago. The last 4 have been a series of Gold Wings, and traded each one with over 250,000kms. For a Gold Wing........that's just getting started.

We're getting ready to pack up the RV with Gold Wing in tow to head off to Lake George NY June 4-12 for Americade (World's Largest Touring Rally)

This will be the first time we haven't ridden to the event since 1984.........but now the RV is our accomodation and fun after the motorycle fun with 50,000 other motorcycle enthusiasts.

Come on sunshine and warmer temps!!!!!!!!!!!

All these pretty bikes. I've pretty much got one of the ugliest bikes ever made. But it does everything I ask it too. A few oh crap moments tho.

Yep, and I'm a mid 40s adrenalin junkie. I had to get rid of the of the crotch rocket, they'll kill ya, this one will only mangle you a bit.

This was on some private land in eastern Wyoming. Big ole cattle ranch that the rancher uses ATVs or dirt bikes to get to the back side of the property. This was about 6 miles from the gravel road.

Hey JR, I have an 07 KiLleR (as I call it) myself, and it's the funnest bike to ride. If it's good enough for the Marine Corps, it's good enough for me.

Like I tell all my Harley buddies.........."I can take my bike anywhere you can take yours, but you can't take yours near the places I can take mine".

I call mine the muttbike, you know, no pedigree. Plus I've stuck a few parts on from other manufactures/bikes. The last was an modded DRZ400 rear brake master cylinder cover. Before that, a set of Renthal CR bend fatbars.

You did keep you eye on the road. Good thing I'd say.
