Not a Connie, but we was first across for the year ;D

I've been wanting to try that pass. What was the road like?

Low challenge but high payoff.  It will be ridden by me again.  Next time I do the trip I will take my time, no deadlines or commitments on either end.  Still bummed we didn't get the opportunity to meet up.

Where did you get a white C14?? Did you have it painted, or is it a factory color; if so what year??

White was never a factory colour. If I ever do a repaint it will be white.

Well crap.

Kawasaki seems to favor darker colors for the C14.

Maybe for the same reason people think black makes them look skinny  ;D

If I was JAY, I'd just buy a 4th set of plastics (5th? 6th? what's he on now??) and have 'em painted.

(I should mention, I still don't even own a C14 :-[ ... yet ... but am looking feverishly ... and need to sell my RC51; too damn uncomfortable; nowhere to put things; can't ride a passenger. Well, no passenger wants to ride on it, and I don't blame them  :))

Hmm, looks vaguely familiar.


Drove across Cottonwood Pass not far from there earlier this year on vacation, also Loveland Pass.  GF had never seen a mountain.  Not any more!

  A view of Half Dome from Glacier Point, Yosemite California. No motorcycles but some of the guys enjoying a picnic lunch and swapping stories.
