A Bunch of Random Pictures - Frulk_imp - 10-15-2018 Just thought I'd throw together a thread with a collection of pictures. Saturday AM I rode to Ogden's Historic 25th Street (or as its known locally 2 Bit Street). Back when the railroad came through Ogden in force the city's nickname was "The Crossroads of the West". With the railroad came the usual suspects (speakeasy's, carpet baggers, ladies of ill repute and so forth). Was quite the rough and tumble place. Now a days its toned down significantly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogden,_Utah Had breakfast at a local diner and took this pic out the front window. Not a lot of traffic since it was around 8:30 AM. Temps were brisk...around 40 +/-. A couple of TV shows use the store fronts for their backgrounds. Notably the series 'Yellowstone' with Kevin Costner. Since we're discussing the Indian FTR on another thread. I stopped by the Indian dealer 3 weeks back and looked at some very nice machinery. If the FTR really does price out at mid $15,000 and has the usual add-on's like tax, title and so forth it will likely exceed the threshold for what I'd want to pay for that style bike. Especially considering I have an XR1200 in the garage I'm exceedingly happy with (the bump in power and drop in weight of the FTR not withstanding). This Indian was $22,000 and would be my first choice of their current product line. This model was also in the running for my wallets contents at approx. $25,000 on the floor. Some pictures below my friend took at the Salt Lake City Distinguished Gentleman's ride this year. The riders contingent on the steps of the Utah State Capitol. Honda was represented. My friend told me he saw a CB1100 there. I was unable to go as I was in SW'n Wyoming that weekend working on the Wyoming State Native Trout Slam. A friends garage. The Harleys are on the other side of the bay. The Triumph in the foreground was just visiting. Same friend with his Triumph Scrambler climbing the mountains north of Salt Lake to about 9,100 feet. Picture is looking north. He can't say enough good things about both the 2018 Scrambler and Bobber that he owns. Wanted to take the CB1100 out on the freeway and try out that muffler I bought off CB Forum member Peking Duck. I've had it on for a week commuting and the it's louder-ER than stock but not offensive at normal speeds/RPMs. More of a lower growl. Today I rode out to Stoddard Utah to a well known road house that used to be called Kelly's. Owner passed away recently and it's under new management. Anyway, wanted to see how the muffler sounded at freeway speeds. LOUDER. Noticeable at 75+. Would I want to do an extended trip of 3-4 days at freeway speeds. Probably not. Going to put in the removable silencer and see how that sounds at those speeds. Should quiet it down considerably. The look of it is growing on me. Couple of 20 somethings really like that can. Told me so while I was getting gas. As I was leaving to try out the muffler At the road house. Back from todays ride. Today was another brisk day with temps in the high 40's during the ride through the canyon. You can still see the remnants of this years first snow from last weekend. RE: A Bunch of Random Pictures - Ben70_imp - 10-15-2018 Great pics, thanks for sharing! Is the Wyoming Trout Slam available at Denny's? Ben RE: A Bunch of Random Pictures - peterbaron - 10-15-2018 Frulk, great pics, thanks for sharing RE: A Bunch of Random Pictures - Cormanus - 10-15-2018 Thanks, Frulk. Great thread. What's the white bike at the DGR? RE: A Bunch of Random Pictures - Ben70_imp - 10-15-2018 Cormanus, looks like it may be a Yamaha XS Eleven. Early 80's... they made a cruiser style and a roadster style. Think I can make out the badge on the side cover. Ben RE: A Bunch of Random Pictures - Cormanus - 10-15-2018 Thanks, Ben. RE: A Bunch of Random Pictures - Rocky_imp - 10-15-2018 Nice pictures I enjoyed seeing them.
