LOL! That's a great idea! Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

This guy is making do with what he's got and apparently doing alright. I got my first bike 30-some years ago (cb360t) from a junk yard and "repaired" it with parts off whatever other bikes I could find in the yard. Seems like he just couldn't find all the necessary parts to make it work so he...

I shoot with an A6000 as well. As dated as it is, it's still a fantastic camera. Honestly, I need to update my skills before I update my camera. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

Yeah, I'm thinking being banned from his crap store is not as big a deal as he thinks it is LOL Them: "You're banned for life!" You: "Um, ok... thank you?" Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

I've owned 2 Ducatis and you either learn to do valve adjustments yourself or prepare to pay $1k every time you need them adjusted. Not exactly low cost in that sense. Other than valves, not expensive to maintain in all honesty. As for Harleys, I've owned them as well and depending on the...

Welcome, Robbie. If you were looking for one bike to do everything you mentioned then you pretty much nailed it with the S10. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

Welcome from 45 minutes south of you. Plenty of info on here. Solid bikes that do just about anything you ask them to do. All depends on what you plan to do with it. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

Finally got away from the office. It was a beautiful day to be out riding. I took a half day off and ran out to the local OHV park to get reacquainted with my bike in the dirt. I forgot how much work this can be. A couple of photos from the top of the hill and one from a fun little mixed terrain...

I was an early adopter of ChatGPT at work. Like anything, garbage in - garbage out. It's all about good prompt engineering. Feed it the data you want it to look at, give it strict parameters and ask good questions. I bet if we put in specific parameters for where to look, what we mean by...

I was set to retire next February, but things happen and the economy has made it unwise for me to retire next year. Doable? Absolutely, but not wise. I'm now on the 6 year plan and hoping the economy rebounds and inflation subsides. If we end up with decade long inflation à la the 1970s, then my...

How many of us sang that in our heads when we read that number? Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

I've had this on all of my bikes at one time or another. Now I shift into 1st as I roll to the stop, then flick it into N if it recently turned red, otherwise just hold the clutch in until it's green. On the rare occasion I have to stop abruptly and didn't downshift, I rock the bike back and...

I finally got out in the dirt today. I took an offroad course and did things with this big beast that I wasn't sure was possible (for me). She's a big girl but she's still more capable off road than I will ever be. I am really glad that I took the class rather than winging it. Most if it was...

All the bikes you've mentioned are fine bikes. I'd simply test ride them all and see what fits you best. That's how I ended up on a Tenere when I was certain that I was going to buy an Africa Twin. Funny how test rides can put everything in perspective. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk
