Flyer5 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 As promised here are some pics of my new ride. I now own it just under 1 week and have put just about 1000 miles on it . The only thing is my commute to work was only 20 miles by car but now it is up to 35 and I have to leave a few mins earlier . Oh well so much for saving on gas,but I arrive at work in a much better mood . Link to comment

flyingreg Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Doesn't matter, blue is the fastest color anyway. Nice bike, but, alas, blue is the fastest color, even when seen standing still. Enjoy the heck out of the RT. They are great in every color!! Link to comment

DouglasR Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I've got a Cee Bailey's +4.5 on my RT, makes a HUGE difference in wind buffeting and comfort for the rider, especially if you are in strong cross-winds. Unfortunately, I discovered that by kicking the wind up and over my head the slipstream came back down and blasted directly into the pillion's head... When we would ride two-up, I'd put the stock screen back on and her ride was much more comfy. It helps to keep a lot of the bugs off your face, too. Now that I'm no longer married, though, buffeting on the pillion hasn't been an issue! Doug Link to comment
BUSTED Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 There was a new picnic shelter back of the cabins. Nothing else as far as I noticed. Friendly bar owner and local patrons. Pic attached! Link to comment

BUSTED Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Not me, that's Flyer5 ! Pic attached from overlook. Link to comment
flyingreg Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Nice bike ,what brand of windshield is that? That would be nice for longer trips. It is a Cee Bailey +7. yes, I am tall and like the tall shield. I am thus able to ride with it lowered a bit more and maintain some streamlined effect. The buffeting on the passenger/pillion has not been an issue on my bike. Might be the speed I cruise at, not sure. I like the shield and have had it for about 36K miles and it still looks pretty new.

Flyer5 Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Is this how the bar looked to you? pic attached. Well just getting into spring it looks a little run down now ,but still occupied . But that is the place . When were you there ?Thats only about 30 miles from me .Dave Link to comment

Thanks I will have to look into it . My wife dosen't go with me too often anyway so mostly I'm 1 up .On long rides or 30degree weather it would be nice . Dave Link to comment
BUSTED Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I camped there 3 nights Halloween weekend 2005. I rode all over the area and southern NY. I was on top of the hill next to the steps leading to the cabins. pic attached Link to comment
