nice shots
and from the looks of that sky hope you had on a good waterproof riding suit
when it looks like that here it is usually cold and wet to the point that some of it comes down as ICE

was nice day but surprising how quickly it clouds over up on the mountains... on the first pic, you can see the road in the distance that i travelled to get to that point its only 2 miles from my house... i go up there quite a lot... i noticed that big tree on pic two and though it would make a nice back drop... no waterprrof gear needed though...

Dude, that is one sweet looking Baggy!! Love your crankcase breather hanging out in the wind like that (have the same arrangement on my Buell)--definitely going to do that with my Baggy as well.

Nice!

By the way, Jack, what fat bar adapters are you using?
