I have found that I have to try different configurations on my bike a bunch of different ways before I know what I want. (geeze, I sound like my ex-wife with furniture...)

T bag, small saddle bags, large saddle bags, throw-over, non-throw-over (whatever those are called) - windscreen, no windscreen, no sissy bar, sissy bar....

I'm getting ready to relocate my turnsignals. that pretty much guarantees that I'll buy a light bar next month and re-do that....

Not that it isn't fun.....I guess I need to touch and feel to know if I want it....(hey - that works in many contexts).


...you're gonna feel a little pressure....

That's one of the best things about these bikes. They can go from tour to solo in just minutes.

Yeah, you are. I'm pretty sure the rest of us leave our bikes they way we found them.

Enjoy the transitions. Take pictures along the way and you and others can see her evolve into the bike that is YOURS.
Fun? Labor of love? Absolutely!!
Satisfied? Rarely!


I'm speeding because I have to get there before I forget where I was going.

I have been working in one direction with my bike just slowly going toward an idea. But lots of guys here have changed so much its hard to know what they are gonna do next.


I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. Edgar Allan Poe
