Sofia made pizza tonight, good times:

What are you all up to? I’m spending the weekend with Sofia, nothing really planned except for next week when i’m taking my bike to have a service and a clutch/gearbox/engine check.

What’s the mileage on the Harley now? Is that just preventive or do you hear something?

Has Shadow given up on it for good?

It’s 21:39 here

Very lazy weekend for me. Didn’t sleep well at all over the last few days, plus the E30 had a nice workout visiting clients in the rain. Yesterday went to bed at 1 and woke up at 10:00, feeling great and came to town for a little stroll around and a bifana for lunch. Afternoon will be spent doing very little, would love to have the GS tomorrow as it’s sunny but it’s 300km away and needs a service.

I think it's normal, now that there's not a nice coating of oil on the engine. Lots of vacuum tubes around, which I hate.

Thanks. It's had the rear suspension rebuilt with adjustment bushings, an e36 compact steering, and some basic bilsteins, looks nice underneath and feels tight now. Engine is very much down on power, though, still thinking what to do with that.

1986, it must have had a little touch up a few years ago. Not perfect but clean enough for me.

Today was an E30 kind of afternoon.

My first time riding with my girlfriend and on our first trip on the R1150GS, heading to the Algarve for my birthday. First stop to take a picture overlooking the ocean, I confidently dig the front wheel on some softer sand, promptly dropping the bike. Not the best start

No politics

Was that done by a cover rubbing on it because of the wind?

Looks like no other takers, so if you still want it, take it! Let me know if you need any help.

I’ll help you with what you need. Takes a few minutes to set up the poll but it’s easy on a laptop. I also think it’ll get a better response being done by you than me, so thank you!

Sorry to hear about all that, Clive.

I am going to give running BOTM a break, at least for a few months. If someone is up for doing it, now’s the time. I hope whoever does it has fun.

Looks very nice!

How does one do that?

Perfect weather to go out in a leather jacket and just be out. Went up to the hill cafe for lunch, on the way there a road was partially washed out for a few meters, no issue really but impassable for cars. Then stopped for a coffee and a chat with my friends at the Dainese shop, then got groceries for dinner and now home. Must have been over 20° today, perfect but every field is still flooded and they say it’s going to rain again next week. Didn’t stop for pictures as I was soaking in the weather on the bike.

I have no idea what that is, but post pictures of what you end up doing!

First proper blue skies I’ve seen since December. Am now enjoying being home with the windows open and Spring beginning to spring, and will take the bike out for lunch today.

They’re fast and look good on rough roads. You’ll enjoy it!
