While some guys (who shall remain nameless) are out crossings streams, and getting their rear bearings wet and dirty, I've been out really testing my Uly to the extreme, by scouring the countryside for the best homemade pies on the planet...I'm on a mission from God!

Mmmmm...pie!

Found this sign around the corner from the Steel Trolly Diner (home of 'the best homemade pies'), Lisbon, Ohio.

I would have loved to have had some time in that Skate park that they shot the TT brochure in.

Yep, and they must be good mirrors, 'cause I see that BMW is now using them on their GS 800.

Great shot! I love those old painted "ghost" billboards.

And thanks for reminding me to add "extra lights" to next spring's todo list.

Where is that smoke wind shield from? Looks great. Any idea if they fit on the XB12XT?

Great pic.

Looks to be a normal Zero Gravity shield. American Sport Bike sells them, yes it fits the XT.

Is that like 9 in a row now for you? : )

Oh yea the more I look at it, I say its the +4" model, they got different sizes. +4" is about the same height as the one that came on your XT.

Sorry, no dice Mr. Danger - although, had this been a KLR Forum, you would have been correct.

Here's a computer enhanced image that may help.
