While we're showing off new bikes . . .
« on: July 08, 2012, 11:32:34 PM »

Since I'm working up in Boston for the summer, 4 months in all. I was missing my bikes and riding. So I got a wild hair and solved the problem. I found this slightly used 2001 Kaw Vulcan Classic 1500. I bought it from a retired gentleman who hasn't had the time to ride it much the last few years. She only has 5038 miles on her!!

This is our first weekend out riding around Lexington and Concord, and the scenic roads around Waldon Pond.



Oh and the Fourth of July celebrations in Boston were absolutely fantastic!! Great fireworks!!



I hope you're enjoying your new Goldwing, Gary. Bring it up to New England and we'll do some riding round these parts!

If you don't love what you're doing, then don't do it.
Your chances of success are directly proportional to the degree of pleasure you derive from what you do.

I started riding on a Kawasaki 750 Vulcan and really looked hard at the bigger bikes when I got ready to upgrade. Congrats, my friend. Ride safe and let us know when you get back to town.

Of Course it's dirty. It's hard to clean when the tires keep moving.

Nice find, Robert!  Are you going to be riding it or trailering it on your return trip to Houston?  Looking forward to seeing you when you get back.  Ride Safe.

You made lemonade out of lemons...that's how it should be all the time.  Maybe I need to get out-of-town for a few months and make me some lemonade, too!   :laugh:
