Never even thought of that connection. Good one!<BR/><BR/>Glad you're enjoying the blog. Are you still in Oregon?<BR/><BR/>Bryce,<BR/>There's a device to drain onto the ground. Pity the drivers behind!<BR/><BR/>Conchscooter,<BR/>Got some pictures yesterday and will talk about parking. Tire to curb is good for stabiilizing mostly. Once in a while it's better not to touch the curb if it prevents the bike from achieving triangulation. Like when the gutter drops sharply towards the sidewalk or the parking area humps up.<BR/><BR/>Charlie6,<BR/>Surprised the strap didn't flap around. Must be a good still air pocket behind the Beemer's fairing.<BR/><BR/>Take care,<BR/>Danirondadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17821323482397075170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20666162.post-84533096874079766202008-02-15T06:55:00.000-08:002008-02-15T06:55:00.000-08:00great news re grandma!re the tankbag left unsecure...great news re grandma!<BR/><BR/>re the tankbag left unsecured, I've left the shoulder strap on mine then ridden home. never noticed it lying on the side of the tank!<BR/><BR/>domredlegsrideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927757855921321097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20666162.post-85182138070634494782008-02-14T18:35:00.000-08:002008-02-14T18:35:00.000-08:00Like so many things in life I have no understandin...Like so many things in life I have no understanding why I park with the rear tire curbed. Always have and don't know why. Are there occasions when I shouldn't? <BR/>Also it occurs to me if I rode the temperatures and distances you ride I too would ride a Honda ST. Or at least something with a generous fairing. My Bonneville with windshield seems inadequate.Conchscooterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08016331487463993200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20666162.post-53013183500949801892008-02-14T17:31:00.000-08:002008-02-14T17:31:00.000-08:00"Believe it or not, one of Sophie's saddlebags wil..."Believe it or not, one of Sophie's saddlebags will hold a Starbucks travel box with all the fixings for about 10 people! There's an idea. I should just run a hose from my helmet into the saddlebag. It would be an all day coffee supply!"<BR/><BR/>You do realize Dan you'd then have to connect to your fluid outlet point to drain on to the ground or to another container! :>)Brycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15760433604853253299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20666162.post-3572420257771826372008-02-14T15:45:00.000-08:002008-02-14T15:45:00.000-08:00Don't you mean "STarbucks"? :)I'm enjoying your bl...Don't you mean "STarbucks"? :)<BR/><BR/>I'm enjoying your blog. I got my first motorcycle license as a result of passing the MSF course in Portland back in 1991, and have been riding ever since. And for a few years in the mid-90s, I had a 1993 ST1100. I ended up selling it to a guy in Seattle... maybe you've seen it around. Great bike. I miss it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
