Greetings From Vancouver Island

[Arrowsmith]

Hi folks. Newbie to this forum (but a grizzled old fart m-c "enthusiast"). Checked out the Super Ten at the Vancouver bike show yesterday. For me at least, it's a very comfortable machine with plenty of great features. Needs "farkling" though.... I need something for an Alaskan adventure in 2012 and this looks like the piece.

Ride on guys... )

Welcome aboard Arrowsmith!!!!! When do you expect to order and what color are you considering?

Myself and 3 others are planning a trip to Alaska in 2012 as well. Two will be on KLR650's and two of us will be on SuperT's!

We'll wave if we see ya!!!

Hi...gonna order it pretty quick (within two weeks). Black looks like the plan for me.

Most of my pals are riding......Harley's. Ouch :. I've been there, done that. I just want a capable, comfortable, reliable machine that I can use on pavement, gravel and logging roads. My plan (at least) is to make the Arctic Circle and beyond. I don't think the Electra Glides will be going along...L-O-L.

And I'll be sure to wave! )

Congrats on your soon to be decision to get one. I have a black one on order now. Welcome to the group.

congrats arrowsmith. i hear you have some great roads on the island as well.

 

[Arrowsmith]

Thanks for the warm welcome folks. And yes, the Island is full of great roads. The logging ones are, well, awesome....but that's my opinion )

(BTW: if you want to know where i live...find Mount Arrowsmith on Vancouver Island -- that's my "hood" ...L-O-L ...I figure it's Tenere country)

 

[HoebSTer]

arrow, by the bragging of the good roads, it sounds like you are going to have to host a weekend ride in your hood!!! Hahahaha!!!!

Welcome aboard Arrowsmith ... I know that area ... truly amazing. You've chosen your steed well for the upcoming alaskan foray.

Arrow smith,

Welcome to the waiting room! I have done some road riding in BC and it is truly a beautiful place. I have bgwm as far north as the Bell II Lodge on the Cassiar HWY while visiting Hyder, AK. No gravel roads for me as the ST1300 is by no means a ADV bike! The S10 will be much more at home in that environment and I look forward to getting off the beaten path.
