Sweet ..looks like you added a Venturer 6 gallon tank too...and last 2 pics show a Venturer fairing...very nicely done sir...Congrats on turning 80...

[RLivingston]

Faring and tank (5.3 gal) were stock from the dealer.

No one should be congratulated for looking like this, send flowers and a sympathy card. Thanks

Last attempted ride to Laramie stopped, too much snow.

Ride or not. Just keep the wheels greased.

Does turning 80 mean you can't turn a throttle anymore? I get not riding a big ole XS, but will you be staying with a smaller bike? BTW, I think you look pretty good for an 80 year old! I should be so lucky to get there.
