Good thing it was only the braking foot, you should be able to still ride! Heal up quickly.

oh no I won't, the peg will put way too much pressure on the broken bone plus the doctor told me I can't

Your xl70 must be very similar to this...

the XL 70 is a little smaller than a CT 90

I hardly ever ride my wing, i'm much happier on the Mighty ST 1300 but I think there will be a stress issue with it also so I hope the XL 70 is finished by then :) You should be more concerned about getting in and out of cars! you sir are absolutely correct!! once i'm healed up i'll be back at work...

That’s terrible news. 900+lb bike, though, so I would be very sure I was healed before riding again and putting that kind of stress on it. I hardly ever ride my wing, i'm much happier on the Mighty ST 1300 but I think there will be a stress issue with it also so I hope the XL 70 is finished by then...

and that rider is me!! I got out of an F150 yesterday and rolled my right foot, thought I sprained my ankle or pulled a tendon but got sent to medical. they did an X-ray which showed a broken bone. right now i'm in a brace but I think i'll be in at least a soft cast after visiting the doctor friday

I've got it set upon my phone but keep forgetting to use it

my " new " other bike, a 1974 Honda XL 70 to restore

we have enough room for eight to ten bikes as long as you have time to wait on the guy in front of you to move out

What's with all the BMW's?

everyone with a 1200GSA rode in that day but there are honda's and a few harley's plus an R1200RT bmw thats in the parking lot some days

we have enough room for eight to ten bikes as long as you have time to wait on the guy in front of you to move out

this morning I got the Mighty ST 1300 out for a few hours. now its sprinkling and I don't feel like getting wet so all bikes are parkes

yesterday we did it in the dirt

well with all that's happened or didn't happen it looks like i'll be able to make it to the M&G if someone is looking for a roomie let me know otherwise i'll book a room next friday

Has anyone had any experience with these boots, and if so could you comment on them? https://fortnine.ca/en/tourmaster-response-waterproof-3-0-boots Thanks..................Dave my first pair of boots when I got back into riding were tourmaster response boots. those were waterproof and looked like ...

if it was a new wing '18 or '19 it could be that the power windshield was in a low position. when i'm riding the Mighty ST 1300 I usually get up to expressway speed then raise the ( it's powered too ) windshield until there is no pressure on my helmet, my jacket will still move some though

just a short ride on the GSA to see how much better the grips felt with grip puppies installed. while I had it apart I also installed an excel throttle lock

I wear a pair like this: Solution2Pair_750x750.jpg They're waterproof, but they breathe. Not too hot in summer, and when it gets REALLY cold, I have a pair of heated insoles I stick in them. They're great, very comfortable on the bike...not so comfortable to walk around in, though. are those tourma...

I think my niece fod brake lines for her 1200 aspy on galfer's website

I bought a pair of alpinestar new land Gore-Tex boots back in '15 and really love them so much so that even though they have been discontinued I searched hard and bought another pair. the old ones are not worn out I just want another pair while I could still find them which is getting hard to do

I had been in Canada for couple hours and didn't want to aggravate my neck so I headed back to the border, took a bout five minutes longer to get back in the states than it did to get into Canada. not much traffic on the roads so getting back to the house took almost no time at all. once home it was...

I was heading north on riverside dr. but the road was closed due to construction so I headed south and ended up in Sandwich, Ontario

the temp went from 53f to 66f real fast, I had to dress down some to stay cool so I removed my jacket liner and changed to summer gloves

after that it was time to find some murals in Windsor

from Detroit you can see this church but you would need some very good eyes to make out much detail so I went for a closeup

well puttzing around the city isn't what got me out early I had something I thought would be better that puttzing around Detroit so I crossed the ambassador bridge for some puttzing around in Windsor, ON. CA.!!! I really wanted to go to Canada cause the GSA has one lone decal on it and I was tired o...
