Good luck with the surgery. I know how uncomfortable hernias can be.

Today, shortly before noon, I drove along the river in a fresh southeast wind and visited a friend... The Z1000- A1 ran like a clockwork and I had a lot of fun on the roads...(

I went for another nice ride today, it was another great tour on my "time machine" ....I always really enjoythe spring time on the bike!!!
(the weather is supposed to be unsettled and rainy again in the next few days, and I have to go under the knife in the middle of next week, and after that I probably won't be able to ride my motorcycle for 3-4 weeks)

Good luck with the surgery. I'll try to get some pics of my A1 when I get it out so you can have something to look at during your recovery! Meanwhile, here's one from a couple of springs ago.

Thanks. Although it's no longer my daily driver, I rolled over 90,000 km last year. I still put 2-3,000 km per year on it. I've owned it since 1979.

Great, Scott!! Thumbs up , pretty bike in front of a perfect panorama you`ve shown!
I only ride about 3000-5000 km per bike per year now (with both the A1 + A2 ),... and only in dry weather between March and October... the blue A1 has 53,000 km on the clock, the black A1 has had a complete engine overhaul and has about 12,000 km on the clock since then... both run very well, and i still have a lot of fun with them!
