It somehow seemed significant that I crossed eleventyone miles on Bilbo Baggin's birthday.
Happy Hobbit Day!

Thanks TIF. I will let Mr. Frodo know that today is his 'real' birthday.

Went for a nice 150 miles today. The "bladder before rear end" test was successful on the Corbin so I'll be keeping it. Also an ebay find appeared on the bike as well. It sounds lovely.

Camoto, it's good to hear the corbin is working out well for you.

Looks like an Arrow slip-on. Did you leave the baffle in or pull it out?

I rode about 180 miles today up to New Boston, NH and back mostly on back roads. It was a beutiful day but a little too warm for me (85 F +). I'm looking forward to the 60-70 degree weather this fall!

Comoto, I sat on a Corbin like that on an used ST at the Dealers the other day. I’ll say it was comfortable. At least in the showroom. First time ever on an aftermarket seat.

I will say somebody used Armor All or some such and it was SLIPPERY

 

[camoto_imp]

Curlyjoe, yes, it's the Arrow! Baffle is removed (I haven't actually tried it yet). It's not loud at all so I'll probably just leave it out. It has a really nice tone and is substantially lighter than stock.

ArmorAll on a motorcycle seat is a really bad idea! A little Windex and a microfiber cloth would fix that pretty quickly though.

Is it just me or does the two tone engine somehow look more appropriate for the yellow paint as compared to the red?

A great looking pair. That blue sure tugs at me.

Visiting the engine factory, no chance of a transplant though.

That's the first time I've noticed old and new together. I like both , but I think I like the old flanged tank better. It looks more "period correct" . I'm sure the 2 tone paint helps , too.

Yes, I'm with you - I much prefer the tank on the "Gen 1" version.

 

[alprider]

tank...gen. one ?

i have a DLX , the blue (EX ) ...for me is gen.1 with 4in1 exhaust , not DLX

Nice photo Wisedrum - can't see if you got your broken brake lever replaced.

[Wisedrum]

Yes John, I replaced it and the clutch lever too with foldable ones from LSL:

I bought the black ones.
They are more expensive than the Honda parts but not that much, they have been reduced a few € and can hopefully prevent a damage if my CB experiences a new downfall, which I don't plan. One never knows.
