Pics from my ride in Norway 11 Months, 1 Week ago
|
|
Hi!
I just thought I share som pictures from my ride in Norway and Denmark with my Wildstar (Roadstar).
A bit of a handful round them hairpins downhill  , but it worked out just fine.
https://picasaweb.google.com/Kjellsresebilder/610June2012#
The routes were:
Wednesday: http://goo.gl/maps/Wq6v 486 km
Thursday: http://goo.gl/maps/ko4h 385 km
Friday: http://goo.gl/maps/Wthg 489 km
Saturday: http://goo.gl/maps/AVMQ 211 km
Sunday: http://goo.gl/maps/fmo3 243 km
I hope the links works, otherwice You have to copy them directly into your browser.
A new owner is comming to collect the bike this evening, so the Wildstar times is over for me.
I will be getting something with better load capacity and space. Some more power, ABS-brakes and an even bigger fueltank. But I must say that the Wildstar have served me well, and it's IMHO a capabel tourer if one keeps within reasonable speeds. Only thing that bothers me is that Yamaha stopped selling their Star parts so soon!
Next trip is bound for the Atlas mountains in Marocco and the Wildstar would be to heavy for the desert sand!
I know this for a fact since I tried the sand on the Danish beaches...
Cheers! /Kjell.

Cold? We had 4 deegres celcius above freezing point at 1434 meters above sea level.
But my riding gear works okey, even at those temperatures.
Yep, the Sportster 1200 with 70 000 kms on the odometer made it allright.
but he wished he did not lower it so much at the rear
