      I took a quick ride in the morning to check out the sunrise. Rode to the coast and took these shots at 4:45 AM.

        Nice sunrise photos.
        Ew, 4:45am.
        I think I will stay with sunset photos, at least until fall.

          @Redman,
          Yeah 4:45 wasnt really nice and it was cold too. I also slept the rest of the day after the ride.

            rode to Muskegon Bike Time.
            Not that this is my favorite thing, but it is a spectical to see, and is only about 20 miles away.
            Thosusands and thousands of bikes. About 10 blocks and sidestreets closed off to cars. Bikes parked on both sides of street and two rows down the middle.

            Maybe these pictures don't show it well, because, are from a traffic circle, and is where there were some vendors setup.







            Anyway, thosuands and thousands of bikes.
            I saw a couple Hondas from the 80s.

            Saw this. I was quessing an AJS until I saw the Royal Enfield tag. Had PA plates.


            Well,
            20-30 minutes was enough of that.

            Headed out for a ride. Lake Michigan in Muskegon.

              Nice pics, Hammer.
              At 4:45 here the only thing awake are the Cardinals making a racket.

                  Ah, Adam, are saying that your exhaust tip didn't have that custom shape until today?

                  and.. now we see what "loud et" means.

                    No No No, The exhaust got banged up when I crashed last September. Increasing radius turn, squishy front brakes. I had only put 500 miles on it after the full rebuild and that turn got me. I banged up my little creation.
                    All better now, I rebuilt it the best I could that's why the megaphone end is still dented and the headlight bucket painted a different color.
                    It has the baffle in it, has that great vintage Kerker grumble...just a little dinged up. Still pretty LOUD....and yes, its an "ET" (chain drive, 1980) as you caught on to Dave. haha
                    This was my first GS and hence the odd username choice. lol

                      A stop by the river on the ride to work...a few rain drops this morning but a good excuse to log another 100+ miles on the Bandit today.

                        Fired up the old 650, first time in over a year. Put in the battery, put it on Prime, started on the first touch of the button, idled perfectly. A pleasant surprise.



                        Took it for a sixty some mile romp up in the mountains, it's a pretty nice bike for that.

                          Nice (how many more are you going to surprise us with?).
                          Custom paint. Custom exhaust (muffler anyway).
                          Nice scenery.

                            I feel like I have a stake in that bike....didn't I sell you the gas tank a few years back? I still have my eye out for a decent 650G. When a good one pops up on CL at a fair price it's usually gone pretty quick. BTW, nice pic.

                              Beauty evening for a spin got out for a couple hours. These were taken about 15 min from my place on the 13th side road of new Tecumseth

                                How about one with fairing and bags, here nearby In Michigan.
                                Looks like very good condition. Priced for someone looking for a good one.


                                You could use the dpep buy-and-fly-and-ride method.
