Today in Jersey along the coast, clear skies, moderate wind and temps in mid 70's. Car in for servicing with an airbag recall, done tomorrow. I guess a couple days of riding were in cards.

I have a 2014, S40 I picked up a couple years ago, when my Savage was down. It has always been the bike of last resort. But today for the first time in 2 years I actually took it out for a real all day commute ride, Not just from shop to home and back. It is a completely different machine from my other, but fun none-the-less.

I bought this bike for cheap and it had some problems, biggest was petcock. Second was battery. Third was loose handlebars and some sketchy pedal set-up. All quickly fixed. Some cosmetic/hardware upgrades, de-badge, exhaust, bars, mirrors and headlight.

Anyway, a day like today here in Jersey was about as good as it gets. Passed plenty of others who were taking it in as well. For me it  is the first I have ridden 5 straight days in a while.

Anyway, It was a long interstate rip with some local, then a 18 mile run home, all good. This ride will be getting more in mix with regularity.
