[Mike Sisson]

The damn thing gone blind (bam-A-lam)
I said oh black betty (bam-A-lam)
whoa, black betty (bam-BA-lam)

I REALLY appreciate all you guys in Europe/UK/Australia/S. Africa who are doing all the Beta testing and beating the crap outta the S10!!

Saves us poor Yanks having to figure out what works and what doesn't. Good job!!! ;D

I'm thinking more like the dark side of the force in terms of colour.

DaFoole is your avatar Bruce Campbell??

HoebSTer,

Actually there's another S10 buyer about 15 miles from me as the crow flies (Bandon, OR) who turned me on to the dealer in North Bend OR.

 

[HoebSTer]

dafoole,
is your friend on here as well?

 

[JonnyCinco]

bueller....bueller.....bueller...


welcome!

Not yet. He's aware of the site but haven't seen him pop up yet. We "met" over on ADVrider.

 

[HoebSTer]

Dafoole, we will surely have to get a meeting going for us western people at least. I know there are a few people in central wa (dealer i bought mine through), and a guy from both ID and MT that are on this list.

I'm all for it!! ;D

Should be quite a few West Coast/Western bikes. Lots of good venues in N. California, Oregon or S. Washington. Best time would probably be late Sept. as the weather calms down, coast get's beautiful, most of the RV'rs/tourists are gone and the fog goes away. (And hopefully most of us will have gotten our bikes....) I've got to plan such things well ahead to get the time off as I work most weekends (by choice). I'll start doing a bit of scouting for a possible site and please let me know if you or any others have some good ideas. I would like just a simple "lets meet here" kinda thing as setting up an official rally is a lot of work and a PITA.

Would you mind a fellow Canadian rider joining you on meet some time.Sounds like a good excuse to get away and even a better excuse to ride. Keep things posted I would be very interested. Once I can order here suppose to arrive in July.

Yes you and everyone else is always welcome. From the VSTROM forum there are over 15 great guys who all seem to get along and help each other out here in the Seattle area. You know there is now a Washington Back Country Discovery Route that is all dirt roads from Osoyoos, to Oregon that has been mapped out!!!

Of COURSE you'd be welcom!!! Being from Canada you would, of course, have to bring all the beer....... ;D

 

[Bruisen]

I wonder how much beer you can pack on the S10.Sounds like a challenge eh!

Read my note regarding the safety recall

 

[Bruisen]

I guess a couple extra tie downs will be required.

 

[Mike Sisson]

We'll all just have to test the rack out at the same time...... That was one cool thing with my GSA. The Left pannier made a GREAT cooler once you arrived at your desination

 

[Psyduck]

Just put my deposit down today.
Black it shall be!
Glad to be here.
Argh! The wait is already making me drowsy.
