I can't wait to retire and have a fixed income. The one I have now is always broke.
That do nicelyHow come your top fender and headlight are so clean? Geeez my Dakar even looks at moist dirty water and it flips right up on everything. Must get one of those low fender kits.
NOT...

I got into some really sticky mud going down a dirt road, no dirty water, it was gumbo. It was fairly warm today and the past couple of days, so the snow had melted and the top 1" of mud had thawed. The Tourances were not worth a darn in that and the front low fender plugged up pretty quick. Tried parking the bike on its side (don't recommend it), but no damage. I'm thinking that if I am going to get into mud again, I'll need different tires and might lose the low fender.
It took me over an hour to get it all cleaned off again.

Welcome to the 'board.
That's a "picture of the week" candidate you've got there.

I hope this works. Took a bit to figure out how to resize.
This is my first bike I bought in June '06. I put 7,000km on it the first season. (It had less than 8 when I picked it up) This was taken on my first long weekend ride by myself. I went from Borden to Kingston, went SCUBA Diving with friends for two days, carried on to Ottawa and back home thru the twisties by Bancroft in the pouring rain. I even managed to travel a little on the 401 slab and survived. (I feel like this little bike likes to get tossed by the big trucks) Planning much longer trips for this season.
Nice spring day in the Idaho Panhandle (40F & cloudy). If it's not snowing or raining it's a nice day. Lake Pend Oreille to my right, Schweitzr Mountain in the background. I've never tried to post a photo, so if it works it's a minor miracle.

So I decided to go from the K-bike dark side straight to the F-bike dark side (I do own a boxer; it just says "Subaru" on the front).
I've owned this bike for about an hour and a half now.
