And Ive been meaning to stop here and take a picture in this spot for weeks. Wish I'd have done it when the pears and what not were in bloom... Caught this just before sunset with my Iphone..not a great camera..the batteries on ours were dead

Rosie looks great TCK, real clean. But next time take the helmet and tank bag out of the picture so we can focus entirely on the bike.
BTW, Rosie would look even hotter with a pair of ohlins out back -
HEHEHEE Rose is my FianceOriginally posted by JTsGS650 View Post
Essie is the bike 
And at one point, She had Ohlins (Essie, Not Rose) But frankly, spending near a grand on shocks that do no better than Ikons or Progressives in the twisties in *MY* humble opinion isnt worth it.. sure, they look fancy, but there are other shocks out there that perform nearly as well for a fraction of the cost..

I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.Comment

Previous owner called it "Blue".
Wife's bike is not named.
In fact, the only other one (so far) was "Freebie".
It was mainly to distinguish that bike from the other '81 850 in the stable, and was derived from the purchase "price".
