I took an hour long ride in the pouring rain today on my DRZ. Dirt roads were a slimy mess, road shoulders were disgusting, and a couple of short stretches of single track were mud slogging nightmares.
Had a blast

There is a whole group of us in the Sacramento area who likes to see how far we can push these supermotos capabilities, and they are surprisingly capable to go damn near anywhere. The weekend before last I had snow falling off my bike for 1/2 an hour after we came off the mountain. We have literally a lifetime of exploring area right in our backyard.

I took my bike to the dealer in Des Moines for the initial oil change and service. Then to watch the Iowa Cubs ball game and they even won!
From there went to Lake Red Rock the largest lake in Iowa. This is down below the dam and spillway, Very low output. 
Then checked out camping spots at Rock Creek. 
About 300 miles total today. |

Bike made 173 after tune. Picked up 9 hp.
I had the wire mod done to the bike prior to the tune and after the tune it is a whole different animal. Much more power throughout the power band. Upped the rev limit from 13.5k to 14.2k, removed speed limiter, etc. 
should have video soon. |

No pictures today, maybe tomorrow. I rode my '98 Buell S1W across town to get it inspected, sat for an hour and decided that I didn't want to wait anymore so I rode home and swapped it out for the '09 Buell 1125CR I bought 2 weeks ago and did a little errand running...got a few things to take care of in the morning and then I plan to go find some twisties on the new bike. |

Just got back from 185 miles of good old country back roads. Getting the bugs worked out for my up coming trips. I think shes good to go but I'm going to put on a new chain any way. Probablly ride the BRP to Boone or Asheville next week.
 Was going to use my point and shoot camera today but my daughter taught me a lesson about checking my gear before leaving. This was in my camera bag, instead of my camera  |

I can tolerate it for about 70 miles and then I'm done for the day, hell even an airhawk and a Sargent seat couldn't help. However, for me that is the perfect around town hell raising bike, probably one of the best motors that has ever been made. (which is why I can't sell mine) |
