Beautiful day in Iowa out to make that turn over to 6 digits Steve - if only you had a story book to tell how those miles were spent. Congrats

Thanks guys.
Yes this bike was made just for me!
It is so nice two up on long trips or right at home on rocky jeep trails two up.
Then when Michelle isn't on here with me it turns into a real beast off road, feels like I'm cheating against other bikes. [this thing is even awesome riding one handed with no rear brakes] :D

This was a great day for riding in Iowa, rode in to Ottumwa for breakfast with my daughter and granddaughter and just got home from having lunch with them and Michelle. [I need to go for a ride, how about the Arctic Ocean anyone?]

No plans on a new bike here, Mine just got broke-in.

How about Saturday? I cannot go through Canada until I get my passport renewed, but we could make it to International Falls where I could turn around!

Any major work mechanically to reach that? I bought mine as a daily workhorse and I'm glad to see that on the Tenere! I know I know ::021::

Don, that's not me, I don't even ride mine to work, that's what I have the Wee for.
As far as problems, Them ACCT are the biggest joke Yamaha has put on these bikes, At least mine never jumped. Some guys haven't been as lucky.
