Here is my ride. This is my first attempt at posting a picture, so hopefully it works...

Looks cool. I like the blacked out speedo and headlight.

Pretty nice alright. Ya know... with so many doing the 'black out' thing, it's starting to grow on me. I'll stick with the bling thing, but I do like what you are doing there.


Live to love, love to live.

Thanks for the comments guys. Have a few other parts I'm thinking of blacking out and a pair of gaitors to install. Will post pics (hopefully better ones) as changes are made.

Riding around the other day. Saw this structure and decided to take a picture. It is an old furnace built around 1765 and was used to make musket balls for Washington's army during the Revolutionary War.

I lived in PA when I was a boy, and I remember seeing a number of furnaces like that one. A few were on the way to Grandma's house and there were others near a state park in Central PA where my family along with friends would go on picnics for the 4th and Labor day. Time has dimmed my memory about actual names, but it was over 50 years ago...

Thanks for sharing the picture. The bike's a beauty BTW.

That is on Furnace Road near Mt. Wolf in York County. You can get there by heading north off of the Wrightsville exit of Rt 30 (just before you cross the Susquehanna River into Lancaster County).

Thanks. Been trying to take time to stop and see things like this lately instead of just riding by. There's a lot of history that just lies tucked away and unnoticed.

You may be thinking of Pine Grove Furnace State Park which is nearby.
