Ouch, my brain hurts. And I only got through the first section.

It was an excellent day for riding, as your photos relate. I didn't make it to Fort Mountain - just up as far as Adairsville.

It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to go ahead and change the oil. Fast and easy, plus you'll exactly what you've got in there.

Sounds like it was a fun ride. I'm planning on riding around Fort Mountain later this afternoon.

Nice looking bike. Looks like you're ready for a road trip!

Welcome aboard! Nice to have you here.

Welcome aboard! I moved up to the Vulcan last year after riding a GZ250 for 5 years. Love the Vulcan! I'm sure you will too.

That is cheap. How easily can it be released when you transition from cruise mode into traffic? Obviously, everyone has their own preferences. I'm very happy with the Vista Cruise throttle lock. It has a thumb lever to release the throttle at a moment's notice. In my book it's $40 and 20-30 minutes ...

Now if you could just figure out how to ride both of them at the same time...

Interesting site. But who is Sarah? And does Alecia know about her?

Your new bars look good! Mine had "highway bars" when I bought it but, as you can see, they are practically worthless and ugly to boot.



I have a feeling new bars will be in my future.

The article in the link has it starting around $10K.

Congrats on the new bars - looking forward to pics.

There's a guy on vulcanforums.com that sells highway bars that he has made in Mexico. I think he's in Laredo or Brownsvile. Did you happen to look at those?

Thanks for the comments. The photos don't show it clearly, but I have a lot superficial corrosion to deal with. Nothing that some steel wool and a tube of elbow grease won't solve.

Let me know when you're riding through and want to grab a coffee. I'll PM you my contact info.
