just remember the golden rule for the mancave

You know it brother! Might want to talk to AZR though...he like to post video's of happenings in my garage.

Must have been the same day.

Wasn't a long ride. Just wanted to make sure everything was working properly. Runs really well but the tach is lagging. I'll have to do a search on here for how to fix that. Never been into an 1150's before.

Awesome Mark! Glad to see you got out on here and sorry I missed you the other day when you popped around my house. Next time!!
By the way it's crazy how many GS guys we have living on our tiny Island!! What's up with that?? Gotta be the most gsr members per capita easily.

Nice looking LTD. Kinda` like the LTD is Kawi`s answer to Suzuki`s "L".

Forgot to mention that yesterday I met a guy that had just moved to Victoria from Kamloops this past summer. He is a musician, and has a few bikes. This is his old Kawa.
Not my style but a very nice example...



So just so you guys know, I can't ride everyday here...it rained today, still 50 degrees though.
So I had a garage day...my wife went shopping with her mom and my son was in the house all day working on a school project. And not much of a football fan either.
First big job was to put on a rubber thingy on the engine, fell off I guess...lucky I had one on my parts bike.
And oh yeah I had the valve cover polished too...magpie that I am. lol



Then I re-organized some shelves and my bench etc...turned into re-organizing lots of stuff after that. lol

[Hayabuser]

Me again.








Replaced the u/s gauge cluster that ProjectGS came with yesterday with a new one... took the bike out today to see how close my speedo calibration was... turns out it is pretty dang close!

Hard to take a photo with a black bike and sunset...can't see much detail in either




this was just a ride to the gas station....I need to fix a fuel leak before I do any real riding but I couldn't resist a drive around the block with this sunset.

Mark popped by with his great looking 1150 and we had a nice visit.



I put in a new battery (sealed no maintenance one...I hate the bs you have to through on our bikes to get a the battery) in the 83 1100 last night...And have not ridden it much lately so I took it our for a before supper ride. Of course I got wet on the way home...oh well I now have an excuse to wash the bike...lol

No side by side shots of the 1100 & 1150?

[Mark1]

I'd be afraid that mine would get lost if I had mine next to Trevor's collection!

There are times when those ugly fender thingies are worth their weight in gold!

Everyone will pay what they think is a fair price to be cool.
