    Thanks! I get lucky once an a while with the pictures.

    The fire crews and plains are making some good progress. The skimmer plains have been flying over the house all day, they're filling up at a lake about 2 miles south of me...... Plus the DC-10 jets are making their drops. Last I checked the fire is still at 18,000 acres of Pinion pine, Sage and one home and some out buildings burnt.

    I made it through DMV this morning and got a tag for my RS...I was turned away on Monday, because my paperwork was screwed up:mad:

    I have owned at least 20 motorcycles. One of my biggest gripes is whenever I buy one and it doesn’t have a gear indicator. My 2019 Super Cub has one and the 2014 CTX 1300 I traded for the Stateline had one. Honda didn’t put one on the 2013 Stateline so eBay came to my rescue. I am $150 poorer but am a happy camper once again.

    Not a chance. We need speed to get across the Great Plains pronto. I have been watching this skinny jeans rider wander from Michigan to the west coast on his Super Cub.
    Would be a fun ride if I was younger and not in a hurry:

    Honda C125 Michigan to California (and back)

    I'm sure you are already on top of it...but make sure you grease the drive hub splines on that wheel before re-installing it...they can get dry and rusty, which will wear the splines out over time...not as much of a problem on Honda's as some others, but still. A light coat of grease on that axle is a good idea too...can't tell you how many I have had to sledge hammer out due to being assembled dry :headbang:

    I always use a popsicle stick to paint Honda Moly on those gears. If you get Honda Moly on your hands, it is there for a week! Good stuff even BMW guys are using it

    Standard grease works fine on those axles then...not quite as messy as Molygrease...:hair:

    I finally pulled the trigger. Not what I started out looking for. I just couldn't pass on it. 2004 Road King. Less than 18k miles. Other than the handle bars I'm really enjoying it.

    Nice bike! Those bars look like a mini ape/beach bar combo!

    Did some riding up in Oregon on the Dr200. Lots of fun, dirt cheap. ACA4A63D-7A05-4869-A824-9814556575FE.jpeg 7453EACB-DF62-40D2-A8CF-76774C50C888.jpeg DEEF8685-C508-4AAC-B9B6-A39E6C39D24C.jpeg

    Definitely great views. At the top of lawler you are above the fog, looks amazing. The big views are looking west towards Eugene C29684DC-DB20-46A4-8002-0ED549188DE4.jpeg E5184F4A-3927-4588-8AEE-0D0E41EFE165.jpeg 0965639A-0AE7-4C8F-B2F3-F99F6D346BF7.jpeg B1ABF5DC-F175-4997-A47D-3F487C8F38B4.jpeg 1A9DD7A2-4AEA-4142-B543-D47AAEB098CD.jpeg
