I went for a nice ride today with Kiki out to the Hill Country. Please watch the video if you have some free time!

 “New Wheel and Tire” Cedar Park, 2024

I finally got the rear shoe fit properly for Kiki! The new Pirelli MT60 tire looks great, and handles nicely. You have to take it easy when riding with a new tire until the surface gets a little roughened up, but I already love the new setup. And I think the cast wheel looks pretty sweet too!

 “Kiki at Sign Bar” Austin, 2024

Today, I took a ride out to Webberville, and on the way back, I stumbled upon The Sign Bar. I’d seen Instagram stories about this place but didn’t know its location, so it was a pleasant surprise to spot it by the road. It’s like a nostalgic walk down memory lane, showcasing signs from local businesses that have closed. A fun place to hang out!

 “Clean Kiki” Cedar Park, 2024

Today, I gave Kiki a wash. It’s probably only the fifth time I’ve washed her in 14 years! I think dual sports like a GS look better dirty anyway. Of course, I keep the chain and moving parts clean and lubricated, but I don’t pay much attention to the bodywork. 😄

I also took a ride out to Taylor, Texas for a burger. Check out the motovlog if you get a chance!
