Boog, yes that's what I was trying to say. I knew it Mc-Something.... LOL
Howdy Wayfairing man! Welcome from East Texas :cool:
Are you actually just a Poor Wayfaring Stranger?

No, @EasTexRIII I am not. It's a Masonic reference, and I use it on certain sites as it elicits a neat reaction from other brethren from around the world. I've been firmly planted in KS my entire life, though I've seenn a decent bit of the world courtesy of the United States Air Force over the last 20 years.
 
This was my last ride:

Nice that Touring, that you enjoy it many kilometers

This is the only picture right now. I'm buying it off of a friend and former supervisor on base. He let me ride it a year ago, and I was hooked. As soon as he gets it out of Biker's Edge in Wichita (yearly service, plus some weird electrical issue causing a random no-start/no-crank, after running for a bit) I'll take possession of it, hopefully in the next week or two. I grew up on dirtbikes and cruisers. I rode a lot of different sport bikes and standards in my 20's and early 30's, and a few adv bikes. I'll eventually add a V-twin (maybe a FTR1200) and I WILL have a boxer twin, but this bike hooked me. Another friend has a '12 R3 Roadster and it's a blast to ride, but with a fused L5-S1, and 3 other bulged discs, a comfortable riding position was a must, as I intend to rack up some miles on this bike, and want to start doing some actual touring. I eventually may add the Cruise Control from AUS (McCarr, McMaster?) but other than that, probably just an exhaust, intake and better tune.
Very good choice, mate. She's a beauty :thumbsup: And i know, cos i'm dating her twin sister :laugh:
Welcome from Rotterdam, Holland
 
So I brought it home yesterday. This was halfway home, stopped for breakfast with the boss in Derby. I forgot that it had a throttle lock on it, and either had the baffles removed, or other pipes put on, as it's far louder and throatier, than a stock bike. I'll have to ask my friend what was done, as that'll affect what tune I go with eventually.
