OMG!
That is a gorgeous bike!
I have the front end off that year bike to upgrade my "T's" single front disc...which is on my to-do list...lol.
Thanks for updating us.

Thanks! Here she is on a Friday night in the 'Big Apple' (Dec. 2019, our last ride):

It was a good, 'proper' ride in that I'll never forget the people I met or the things I saw. And I'm glad I took the picture. I was never really in love with the 'shorty' style of exhaust, and as you can see here, I convinced her to wear it longer. And the way the light flickers off her reflectors, it looks like she was winking at me. (I may need a real woman
).

You are funny Rob.
Most definitely, get you a woman...the right woman!
Yeah-yeah, we know...she's out there but you'll never find her.
Do you get out enough? Have you cleaned yourself up? (I mean that like in the expression, "you clean up nicely")
There's a lot of fish out in that ocean. I'm not talking bars or restaurant bars...but other places you frequent.
It all starts with a "look". Some women don't want the attention while others do. Don't get disappointed because for every one that seems disinterested, there's bound to be one who is--it may not happen right away so patience and unexpected interactions will happen when you're not looking for it (women can smell desperate guys).
Maybe I notice all these things because I'm married and it wouldn't happen if I was single. My belief is, they can tell just by looking at you! lol
Oh, and if you just get a smile, be thankful inside and know you still got it. Not all women want to appear to be nice to guys because it can give the wrong impression.
I don't have all the answers and what I just regurgitated may be a bunch of hog-wash...but it's just an opinion.
Oh, I do love your bike and she was winking at you!!!

Yeah, no. I've always wanted to live alone, always enjoyed it. Don't worry 'bout me, though: I had some pretty 'fast' years out there before anyone even heard of AIDS. Been to Plato's Retreat, completed my "bucket list" years ago!
Why don't you show us a pic of your '82, maybe learn us how to swap the front end?1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

My "T" is in my avatar.
MrBill has been on me to get back into my riding...other family things have preoccupied me (Lame excuse) but I will have the same focus as when I went on the road to NM.
I'm not worried about you, Rob. Just giving some free advice...take it or leave it.
Thank you for the dialogue...you're close enough to cross paths with...I do want to travel towards your area and beyond going up to Maine...Canada even! lol
Here's to a Happy New Year to you, Rob.
