This photo (the first one) have a meaning.
This pure cigar was a gift from a friend who is a doctor for mi birthday, he said me "to smoke relaxed in a beautifull place". Then, 3 month later I follow the prescription and smoked it relaxed in front of the lake with a beautifull landscape the cigar at the top of the trip. Take the picture and send to my friend to show him.
The second one is the complete scene
The third is in the 40 Route in the same trip, you can see the GPS position, traveling alone and in this moment I could feel the inmensity.

These were taken at Kerry point in Ireland in 2010, my mate's 1150 GS Adventure could just not stand the pace, so had to lay down for a little rest.
Not a bad place to wild camp.

Haven't visited this thread in a month or more. Some great pics! Thanks to all for sharing. Longboard has some interesting stuff there. I don't recognize the crash bars.

Anyway, a couple of pics I like. First was before I even got plates, but I was having some fun in the dust/dirt/gravel.

Second, taken by a friend when I spotted him on the street in Gerlach, Nevada and pulled over to chat.

This was taken yesterday.

What's the square piece mounted beneath your headlights? ::017::

That is a HID aux. light. It's an Osram Sylvania Xenarc X1010 HID Xenon Auxiliary HID Low Beam/Driving/Fog Light. Dot legal for hiway use. Nice wide spread with a sharp beam cut off. I can leave it on in traffic or with oncoming cars and not get flashed. Great help in filling in the midrange and broadening the light cast past the sides of the road. They sell them in sets are are hard to find, but a friend had a single in his garage from a crash, and offered it to me cheap. www.suvlights.com is down for maintenance, but used to still carry them for about $400/set with harness, etc. Wiring is long for moto use. I tucked the ballast on the back side of the right side panel, in the nose where it can get cooling.

I found one of those today. A bit smaller scale.



I liked this one from today.

Sounds like the 'cat's meow,' and fills that void nicely. ::008:: I see what you mean about availabilty. Most everywhere says 'discontinued.'
