            Updated Bike Photo

            Just figured I'd post an updated photo of the bike(s) to show how the paint job is coming. It's a little hard to see the color changing, although you can just see the change at the edge of the side cover. I hope to go for a ride this weekend and get some good shots for the calendar, hopefully I can get a good angle to show the color change at the same time.

            The bike in the background is baby, my first XS, I've had her for over 24 years at this point.



            These pics were taken about 4 days before we moved to our new house. We actually had the keys, but hadn't started moving quite yet. Forgive the quality, these were taken with my Droid X right after I got it.

                  They is going on soon. It's suppose to be in the 70s around here thru the weekend. Nice weather to ride up north and see some colors. When the temp doesn't get past 50 I'll throw them on.

                    When I first put the fairing on in '80 something I thought..I am now a BMW rider
                    But ever since I won't ride without...now I have soft saddle bags on all the time and a little bag on the seat for the camera and gloves.

                        She needs a little cleaning, but she is running right. Elsix is the 1100 and that is my daughters lightning fast trike parked right next to her. Yes, she pulls it up next to Elsix and parks it. And when I work on Elsix, she brings her trike in the garage and tells me it is broken and needs fixed.

                              My little daughter is 2 and she loves to come into "Daddy's Graage" wanting to know if I need help. It's the highlight of my day.
