First off, congrats on the bike & the trip! Second, get rid of those Z4's!! Worst tire ever!

Congrats!

Wow, cool stuff. My father also owned one of those Laverdas, but a 1973 model.

Very nice Miguel, looks like the poor birch have taken a few stabs from handlebars...

Great report again Miguel, I love the Saint Vrain video, came out awesome, road looks great, and just the right tune for it. A++ and two big thumbs up to you sir!!

Nice report as usual HS!

I wonder what Honda does differently with their gauges now; I know of a guy with an 03 F4i, when he hit 100k, his odo went back to zero!

Do yourself a favor and put that pic on the calendar cover this year!

Nice. Try to stay out of trouble, eh?

You bastage! I have to buy a house instead of the 600RR/1098 I wanted... how much did you get it for?

Now THAT is just plain wrong! Guess you can't take them to court for something like that, can you?

P.P-M

S'pose I coulda, but I'll forever chalk that one up as 'young and dumb' on my part. <_<

Shoot, you guys got lucky.

The very first day I got my plate put on my VF700F, I took it out to show it off to some friends. The last house I stopped at, had a bunch of cars in the driveway, and an artesian well in the yard. Not wanting my new baby to sink her stand into the mud, I parked over the stone walkway leading to the house, front wheel on one side, back wheel on the other, kickstand on the walk.

I went inside, announced that Iahd my new bike outside, and one of the girls(actually a woman older than me) ran outside and hopped on it before I even made it to the door. She got on from the kickstand side, and promptly fell over on the right side, smashing my helmet into the gas tank and putting a huge dent in it. (it was hanging on the handlebar).

Once I figured out she was ok, I started talking to her about reimbursement, and wouldn't ya know it, she got mad and yelled at me for parking my bike the way I did, it's my fault for parking it there... b!tch! <_<

Good for him, bravo! If you want anything in this world you have to overcome the stupidity of others first, he knows from personal experience now~

Vid doesn't work for me? :unsure:

I know what you mean about getting out, those days are precious this time of year. We don't have any salt or dirt down yet, so whenever the wind lets up I venture out. Monday looks nice, I might ride to work again.

I keep coming back for more views... hopefully again in person someday. Thank you for the report, the great pictures, and the memory stir, Miguel. :thumbsup:

I once knew a nurse who told me that every time she got a prick in her hand, she would put it in cider. ;)

Looks like an awesome trip, and another couple turns in NM I missed out on... lol.

Edit: I just checked the map, and I went right by the damn place!! I went farther south and took 26 from Hatch to Deming, WORST DETOUR EVER! Might as well have been slab, and some of the roads were muddy from the flooding of some pepper farms... Looks like I could have done the Gila and hit I-10 in Lordsburg for a better time... oh well, guess I'll have to re-do the trip! :goofy:

See you there Dan!
