Milla and some ugly green stuff




In Ploeisti, Romania we met boys from local bikeclub (MC Silver Piston) and after short talk, they invite us to dinner with them. After that they took us in little bar and make us drink lots of beer; ) My money is not good for them, so they feed us and make our thirst go away; ) Truthfully i havent ever meet so nice, friendly, generous and warmhearted people. We love every minute we been with you and hope we meet soon again.




XB12X and XVS950 in worthiness company. New Bentley and Ferrari




Clouds are low in Sinaia, Romania

Nice trip! noticed you have a different setup for the windshield. Can you post a pic where we can see better? Work out good to deflect the wind without noise?

Nazis were some seriously messed up demons. Hard to believe something like that actually occurred and not so long ago.

This is MRA windshield, in this photo is lowest position. Upper shield is adjustable, 6-7 cm higher. Like this, wind comes under my chin and there is very little noise. In upper position wind comes my forehead and its to much noise. Best solution so far.

Which model of MRA windshield you take? Vario for naked bike? Would you recommend it? I kind of like size and shape.

Etennuly: There is photos about our mc-tours in my Photopucket site. I try to get organize photos in next few days. http://s269.photobucket.com/albums/jj49/Pepedro

Electraglider 1997: I ride Uly and have my 19-year old daughter Milla in passanger. Maria my wife ride Yamaha XVS950A Midnight star and my son Aleksi 16-year old sitting in backseat. Aleksi have only licence to ride 50cc moped in this summer, next june he have licence to ride 125cc motorcycle and 2 years after that he can ride motorcycle under 25kw. After he turns 20, he can ride what ever he wants.

ps. I work in motorcycle-shop here in Finland so I have a chance to testdrive new Yamaha SuperTenere XTZ1200 today and boy oh boy. I want it! We even have 1 pc extra free, only problem is price, 19807 euros its like 24700 dollars :-(

The windshield is MRA for naked bike, i like it in lowest position.











This is new Yamaha XT1200Z SuperTenere model 2010 first edition, i like it!





I wish i have money to buy this so my Uly can have friend in stable; )





I bought Uly in 27.7.2009 when next owner has put 4500 km in meter. So soon we have our first anniversary and we travel together littlebit over 20000 km in year.
