Redhawk47 and I went a 200 mile backroad ride.  Perfect everything, and the V7's purred.

I'm envious of your blue skies.   We haven't had much of that in Pennsylvania this year.

No, it's the Fairing from the Guzzi Record Racer kit.

I'm headed to The San Juan's (Pagosa/Durango) in about 10 days.
Any fall color yet?

In Colorado as part of our USA - Canada tour a couple of weeks ago, visited my buddy Peter and he lent my wife his Mk3 Le Mans so she could enjoy a ride out, upshot is I'm putting high bars on our Mk3 Le Mans as we speak  :grin:
Had a visit to Cactus Jacks in Evergreen for a beer, he offered me his HRD but I wimped out and took our rented Yamaha, stunning riding in the state of Colorado  :thumb:

If you make it out LA on your trip I have a V7iii your wife can ride.  I live right at the base of Angeles Crest Hwy, a great road.  I am in and out of town the next few months getting kids to college.
