My daily ride is a 67 T100. I sold my drag bike a Bultaco 400 Astro a few years back as it just got to be to much of a hassle . Some of you other old farts may have seen it when Ted Mundy was still racing it in Colorado on a circle track. I still have my 66 250 Matadore and a few others.
Photos are on one of my other laptops so I aint posting them now.

What can we do to push the lane sharing in WA?? I know there are idiots with everything when it comes to 2, 3, or more wheels, but with the ever increasing traffic, lane sharing, properly done, is safe and will lessen commuting time...after drivers understand it...
Peace, Michael J.

Pass on lane sharing. Let a few squids get squished first.

There's not enough width in the lanes in and near Seattle for lane sharing. There's barely enough space for full size trucks in one lane.

I went through a lot of bikes in the last 10 years- honda, triumph, BMW, Kawasaki and last Moto Guzzi. Mostly a fan of vintage european bikes. I gave up riding, finally after being hit by a distracted driver. I'm on blood-thinners for life, so head-smacks on pavement are no bueno. I do miss it...

Things like nails, bits of scrap metal, glass, etc. If they sent a sweeper down the shoulder more than twice a year it might be ok but it got to the point where flat tires were too big a pain. One time I had a 1" piece of chrome trim puncture a tire. Left over from an accident where the tow operator just swept it, and a bunch of other trash, off the traffic lanes onto the shoulder. As for a commuter motorcycle, install a fan for the times traffic is more stop than go.

Here's my little lightweight custom project for hauling around on my motorhome. This was before I got my new tires so the front wouldn't look so small and I still haven't made my exhaust yet. This pic was from when i rode the ferry to Victoria, BC
