Title: Wish you were here.... Post by Serowbot on 03/06/15 at 15:35:09 I bet you do... :)... Wind gusts up to 40mph made the ride up a little hard... but the ride home was like floating... Sonoita is wine country,... rolling plains at 4500ft... 50 miles out of Tucson... ;D... Mine is the Sportster,... Jerry has the trike, and my buddy George was just trying out the 750 Shadow he just bought... http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt82/serowbot/a%20IMG_0303_zpsg9ujhhpg.jpg http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt82/serowbot/b%20IMG_0306_zpsivqbnkvl.jpg http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt82/serowbot/c%20IMG_0315_zpsaoihcg7n.jpg http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt82/serowbot/d%20IMG_0320_zpspg0bxdso.jpg |
Title: Re: Wish you were here.... Post by savskad on 03/06/15 at 16:17:59 Oy! I didn't know ya had a sporty, mate! (Australian accent, i dont know why i wanted to say it in an Australian accent [smiley=huh.gif]) We will get some pretty windy days here in Austin...that's the only downside of having "nice" weather, cool days, they always seem to be very windy. However, I don't remember the last time it was up to 40MPH... Nice sporty though. :D |
Title: Re: Wish you were here.... Post by KennyG on 03/06/15 at 20:05:27 We get plenty of 30 MPH winds in North Texas. Our best riding days are winds in the 5 to 10 MPH range. Kenny G |

Title: Re: Wish you were here.... Post by zipidachimp on 03/07/15 at 02:33:14 Hey, Serow, can you answer this? every time I go to a new bike show, I sit on a sportster and it feels like I'm sitting on a rail, especially compared to a 750 shadow or 800 vulcan. What gives? Why is it so bloody stiff? 8-) |

Well,.. I did ride an 03' Sporty with a humped stock seat that literally did feel like a rail... (or maybe a telephone pole)... This one is a Superlow, and the seat is quite good... The suspension is another matter... only about 2 1/2" in the rear and not much more in the front,.. so it is a hard ride... (and at 140lb, I don't think I move it very much)... I'm used to my Savage, with 12.5" shocks, and it rides like a cushy DP bike... I love the Sporty engine... Torquey, torquey, torquey... ...but, I could live without all that weight, and the hard ride... Too bad there just ain't a shoehorn big enough to get an 883 into my Savage frame... :-?... |

That would be awesome. I would do that in a heart beat if I could. |
