    Been slowly working my way down the east coast from Mass to Georgia on this via state highways and what not.

    Slow work, but it's a blast. Only serious incident so far was eating the driveshaft in rural Pennsylvania which stranded me for 5 days, but there are enough tools in that black box to pull the bike apart, only had to borrow a jack.

    But yeah, that's my hack. Run her 4 seasons.

    Thanks Ryushin =)

    Ha, yep its an '89. Taking it down to give to a friend who's in college in Savannah. I really enjoyed it while I had it, she's been making her rounds through my group of friends, great machines - I was surprised by how much I liked it.

    Thanks for the luck, I'll need it, the gearbox is beginning to bleed out, which is alright cause I have a new one on a shelf at home, just gotta keep it together for the rest of the trip =P

    Right right, time to go scrounge some food and get back on the road!

    I've been a bit concerned about the flat rack you have behind the small of your back..........wouldn't want to get hit from behind, eh..........???

    Rack behind the seat is gone for now.
    I'm building a new "solo" seat with a small rack behind it.
