$3800 in kiev. drat you!

lol @ urals. They're like $200usd so of course I'll get one to use as a truck and generally play ~mysummercar~ with. It's common to remove the passenger berth and replace it with a deck.

E: Dnepr (samething). Both within :20bux: of $200.

Having been in Kiev for work last year, there's almost no way you could convince me to ride a bike there. The road surfaces are really hosed in a lot of places, and the traffic is basically just non stop dashcam fodder.

It reminds me of riding in the bay area. 880 is more hosed up than some of the roads in Ukraine.

Eh, a few of them do that on occasion. We're used to parking in the stripey areas from before we had spots dedicated to us. v:shobon:v

Just bought my first bike! Sad thing is my insurance company is closed for the weekend so I have to wait till Monday to ride it.
But the little I have done on it I have loved every second of it.

Also that horrendous bar/clamp combo.

Also the wiring harness to the bars will cause you problems. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow but one day the PO fuckery radiation emanating from there will start to affect poo poo.

The weather has been dry and hot as balls and I'm loving it. Summer is passing by too fast and I haven't had time to ride as much as I would like.




My front tire is shot and has started falling off. The rear still has a bit of life left. I'll replace both in the next coming weeks, but I hate wasting good rubber. So I did the only thing any rational person could do and sanded the rear down with a belt sander.

I would not have expected the Yamaha in a group of Triumphs to be the one with a mechanical issue.

Also, is it blasphemous to say that I wish Triumph would ditch the bug eyes and go back to dual round headlights?
