Hi forum. I traded in my 09 drz400sm and bought a left over 2013 super ten this month. The dealer had it for 9999 brand new and I couldn't resist. I'm waiting for the roads to get less salty and my driveway to de ice before I bring it home. I plan on doing some motorcycle camping with my dad this season. Ive been looking at all the add ons and cool stuff for it and I'm planning on getting some givi bags, engine guards, and the piaa led lights for it this spring so I'll be good to go for this summer.

Yep! Lots of great roads through the mtns up there. I technically lived in Queensbury but went to LGHS...we were right on the edge of the district.

Welcome from a former Upstate NY guy. I saw a lot of great shows up there at the War Memorial in Rochester back in the early 80's.

A lot of great roads up there. Enjoy the new bike.

The first concert I ever saw was at the War. Iron Maiden opening for Judas Priest. Back then it was open seating and you had to shove your way to the front. Scary stuff. Lot of great shows there.

Welcome ejr10mm
I too have seen a couple shows at the War back in the 80s' lost to many brain cells to remember who though... don't judge. I'm from the Syracuse area, we got you on snow again this year better luck next, longest winter I've ever seen, hope we get ridin soon. Was just out at Helmet World in Canandaigua recently great prices on Shoei if you need one, big difference is you get to try one on before you buy the wrong one if you've ever tried the internet you'd know what I mean.
