We all love pictures, right? How about a thread just for that.
I took some foggy photos of my GS this weekend.

That place looks gloomy and depressing, great location for a rural type Horror/slasher movie.
I thought someone else needed to post some photos, so here are mine, didn't enjoy riding though the state forest at night with a tinted visor but thats what happens when you ride with someone with a bike that doesnt have a big enough fuel tank :2guns:

Thanks. These pics are from small town of Kalajoki, Finland at around 1 a.m. ;)
It was a foggy night so I went for a ride to take some pics. It was fun until the rear tire burst.. :icon_neutral:
I did a 1385km trip to Lapland this weekend.
I rode through the Sweden..
(http://i10.aijaa.com/b/00277/8331890.jpg) (http://p1.bikepics.com/pics/2011%5C07%5C17%5Cbikepics-2241551-full.jpg)(http://i9.aijaa.com/b/00172/8331904.jpg) (http://i5.aijaa.com/b/00888/8331948.jpg)
..about 500 kilometers, where I erected the tent next to the road. Mountains are on Sweden and I'm back in Finland.

Levi fell in Kittilä, Finland
(http://i10.aijaa.com/b/00122/8331907.jpg) (http://i9.aijaa.com/b/00649/8331951.jpg)
This is the cottage I spend the second night. Also had a lovely finnish sauna!
(http://i7.aijaa.com/b/00914/8331908.jpg) (http://i8.aijaa.com/b/00477/8331952.jpg)
I was about to refuel in Savukoski, but gas was so expensive there, that I headed towards Salla. Ran out of fuel 20km before. I thought that the reserve tank would give me enough range, but it only gave me ten jerky kilometers.. I pushed the bike for 300 meters and then asked locals for gas. She got only some Russian gas. It worked and so I could ride to Salla for fuel...

All these things waiting to be fixed. Frame is painted. This color is much nicer than stock for me, i very like it. And engine is original, this is 1997 year model.
Thanx for your compliments and critics ;)
These are from two weeks ago. Possibly my last ride for the next year or two.

Bringing this topic up again.
I took my Suzuki for a little spin first time this year. It was -2°Celcius, but it was great! I think it will be until April, when I can really start the season.

New helmet, gloves & jacket...boots are coming...
We went for our first ride that night (June 2nd @ about 10pm)...rode down to the coffee shop & had a coffee and cookie...(she had hot chocolate, not coffee)
(http://i1065.photobucket.com/albums/u392/madjak30/2012%20Riding%20Season/532747_10150825615546782_640446781_9660455_335774647_n1.jpg)
We went for a better ride today, but no pics were taken...I'm pumped about getting a riding buddy...but now my bike is all wrong, need something a little bigger to accommodate a passenger...
Later.
It was summer solstice the day before yesterday. Not quite midnight sun in this part of Finland, but close. This picture is taken 23:26 at one of my favorite roads.

I had my visor full of insects after the ride, otherwise i love summer and the Finnish countryside.
a little bit of the road less traveled on the past ride here.

Wanted to escape the 102 degree heat so I rode to the top of Mt. Evans (14,265 ft.) where it was only 45 deg.

Man, I love your bike's colour scheme. Is that factory?
Sorry for the threadjack.

Earlier we had ridden right beneath the mountains in the background. Next time I'll have to get a shot of those.

Got rained out yesterday. Today was great. I feel sorry for anyone that didn't ride today. There were some cool vintage bikes on the ferry ride back home. I heard there was a VME rally on the island but somehow we didn't see them.
(http://i1206.photobucket.com/albums/bb442/adidasguy/Vashon%20Island%2010-08-2011/DSC02313a.jpg)
my last ride on the gs...literally
(http://i1229.photobucket.com/albums/ee462/justsumguy1/20120617_202842.jpg)
So we have to ask what happened termlifed?
Came out of a blind corner pretty hot only to be greeted by two cars stopped in my lane waiting to turn left and one oncoming car. Timed it to pass between the cars on the double yellow before they could turn. Everything went perfect...until I passed the second car and saw the fender of a third car waiting to turn that was previously hidden from view by the two bigger cars. By the time I knew it was there it had already turned in front of me and I t boned it full throttle at probably 50-60mph. From experience I can tell you that flying over the hood of a car is not that bad, its the landing that sucks. Thankfully the driver wasnt hurt just scared shitless. Bikes front end was completely destroyed and it looks like the energy transferred straight back blowing everything that wasnt bolted down off the bike. Lesson is dont be a squid and play too hard on public streets.
Lesson learned the hard way. Lucky you are still breathing.
Wauconda, IL after a day that included Full Moon Restaurant in the early AM, then a run out to Lake Geneva, WI for lunch.

Yep. 2005 factory color.
Yep - my most ridden place again: Vashon Island. We were supposed to go through the island - arriving at the north and twisties to the south end ferry then continue on to Mima Mounds. Weather was weird so we didn't depart until noon. A few people backed out because where they were coming from (farther north) it was raining. So we just spend time on the island doing twisties, had lunch and did wine tasting. Palouse Winery had a release party and barrel tasting. Fun!
We'll try for Mima Mounds again in 2 weeks.
The day turned out great.
