It's asian, but not chinese. It wasn't that hard to guess!

Just to let you know that the CB500F is gone... and something else took its place

I just started riding a couple of years ago, even though I have my bike license since 2002. I couldn't afford to own a motorcycle before so that's the reason I've only got the Honda CB500F. Other than that I had a chinese pocket bike . Thanks to my feather weight it could get to 50Kph!

That's why I wrote "almost no one..."

I want to thank the three Stooges... ehhhmm Kings, I mean Kings @Buckster, @boboneleg and @Pedro for all their work of keeping the doors of this place open! I still have a lot to learn to get at y'all twatness level but I might get there once I get used to your constant insults to each other . For 2025 I hope I'll be able to ride more and further and share with you the experience (I'll need to get used to stop every 10/20km to take some pictures ). But then again, almost no one likes Hondas around here so I might not need to stop to take pictures. (This is my way of complaining that no one votes on my pictures on the BOTM). In more seriousness, I've been thinking of upgrading, but I need to see and try some bikes that I like. I'll also need to see the running costs of these options before I take the step forward. Regarding Pete, I can't say much because I barely knew him, but he was always nice to me.

Happy New year everyone!

What about the Tracer 9 GT ? Not enough power ? (3 cylinder engine with 117 Hp) Too similar style to the GS ?

I agree, the BOTY should be selected from all the winners of BOTM. I understand that it's tedious to do 2 challenges in one month, so you could skip the BOTM of December (almost nobody takes pictures of their Bikes in December anyway) and make the BOTY with the 11 previous winners. I think that in @Pedro's point of view BOTY means that you can participate with a picture taken any day of the current year, not being limited to a specific month. This might avoid to have the same picture presented twice in the front page of the forum. I don't agree with it, but it's his show. This kind of contest is usually made to have some interactions with the members and give them an incentive to go out, enjoy a ride and share the moment. But some strict rules (i.e. "bike you currently own" ) sometimes get boring and people lose interest in participating. Just my 2 cents.

That didn't stop it to win the BOTM a couple of months ago.

Unless someone participates with a Vespa

At the lunch spot with @Pedro today.

Kilométrage is the word in french. Since there are so many words in french that written the same way that in english and mean the same, I think that it's a valid word

How about a FJR 1300 or a NT 1100 ?

I don't like one single bit of that bridge!

They need to hire the guy who built this fence

The sound of the gopro has always been crap, too much wind noise and not enough sound from the engine/exhaust. I've decided to record the sound using my phone and merge the image and sound afterwards. This is the result of the trip to work on a foggy morning and the trip back home...

Glad to know that she's ok.

Went out for a ride this morning...

2025 Honda Hornet 750 New headlight... It looks kinda weird.

Welcome! We'll be waiting on updates of that trip!
