I get it Jim, at least it's not a hay burner requiring time and attention while being pastured.

The revised 2024 NX500 / CB500X gets my thumbs-up for its refreshingly back-to-basics approach to motorcycling

Farkling the bike yet to get rolling, but some hooligan took it out for a ramble today.

No quarter to harangue me over choice of weapon for the terrain today. The hot pissin' lil' Miss Smoky was the perfect tool for the job. One fine machine!

JWilly rode with me awhile today as I passed his Peter's Mtn ghost. Julie and Wayne know the spot.
I passed my own ghost on the far side of Potts Mtn. VA311 is fond of snacking on FJRs.
