All is good here, Thanks for asking. Its been a crazy summer. My son just got a new Yamaha Tenere 700 so I dusted off the KLR and him and I have been doing some dual sport riding. Hoping to get back on the Indian and get some more content this fall. So stay tuned. Ride Safe.

@@IdahoMtnRider 👍

That's awesome, I think you will enjoy it. Here is hoping for some cooler weather. Take Care.

Thanks for watching. They haven't changed much so if it is in good shape it should be good. The only difference I can think of is I don't think the 17 has ride modes which to me in no big deal to me, I leave mine in tour all the time anyway. Let me know if you have any questions. I would be glad to help. Take care.

@@IdahoMtnRider Thanks for the response. I wasn't sure on the ones without ride mode what that was the equivalent to. My Super Chief has "standard" mode and I tend to leave it in that (versus Tour or Sport). I really don't like the Sport mode so I didn't know if the bikes without any modes felt more like Tour, Standard or Sport. Thanks again.

We got the Touring seat, and it is a one piece seat for the driver and passenger. Yes that is a Corbin passenger back rest and my wife really likes it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Nope, not this year. If you are going, have a great time. Ride safe.

Ok, you too, you gonna be doing anymore videos ?

Thanks for watching and commenting.

Sure that would be great. Be sure to check out some of my other videos, like Tour of Idaho Series and Cool Roads, Wildfires and full Campgrounds and also Old Spiral Hi-way. Those areas and roads are some of the best in Idaho. I look forward to seeing what you put together.

@@IdahoMtnRider very cool thanks! We plan on mentioning the old spiral, st joe river, hells canyon, Hwy 26 and 31 from Victor to alpine, Lolo pass, coeur lake, and a loop around boise which includes 21,17 and Hwy 55. Is there any that you would say are missing or should be replaced in a top seven list?

Approaching 27 K on mine. Had it out for the first time today since last October. Man its been a long winter. I have a KLR as a daily in the summer, so the Springfield is just a pleasure bike. Love the long trips as well as the weekend rides, I am sure it will serve you well on those rides. Ride safe and enjoy your Springfield.

Thanks, and it rides better than it looks. Thanks for watching and commenting

I like how simple it is to take on and off. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks, this was a great adventure with some great people. I hope you had the chance to watch the whole series. It was a time to remember. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I know, I always wonder what drives some of these decisions. Although I would have a Jade Green one if the guy I held the door for at the dealership didn't get it before I did. Thanks for commenting and watching.

Thanks for the nice comment, I am glad you liked it. Thanks for watching ad take care.

It is the best way I have found to do it while out on the road and not taking the risk of scratching it at the gas station. Thanks for watching and commenting. Take care.

Glad it helped, and it sure makes the ride a lot better. Just a note I have since lost the cap and had to steal one off the car. Ride Safe.

Your Welcome, Thanks for watching.

Thanks for coming along. You can always count on the weather being unpredictable in the Rocky Mountains, but it does make for a great story. Ride safe and thanks for watching and commenting.

I wish I could have stayed longer, but there were roads to ride. Everyone needs silence and time to ponder, and speaking for myself I could use some more. Thanks for coming along.

Thanks, yes I do. It sounds just fine to me and the power is good enough, so I never really saw a reason to change it. Thanks for watching ad for the question.

There is a trip on the calendar for next fall down there. So we can do it then, and there is a museum in town we need to check out.

This was from last September, I am in the same boat as you right now. There is about a foot and a half of snow in the yard and the temps are still below freezing. I needed a dose of warmer weather too that why I sat down to edit this one finally. While I was standing at the fence there I was just trying to imagine those wagons heading to the horizon.

Thanks, it was a good getaway. Glad you stopped by to enjoy it.

I live in eastern Idaho. Thanks for watching the video.

Thanks for coming along. I will have at least 1 more from this trip. It will probably be March or April before I can get out again around here, so I know your pain. Hope you can get out riding soon and ride safe when you do too.

Its been crazy this year and its been hard to find the time to edit. For me the overnight rides alone really reset my mental state. I hope you can get out and do some more this year. Thanks for watching.

Yep I got one of the last ones there. It wasn't the best but that's OK it did the trick. I hope you have a chance to get out and ride more now that you have that new setup. Thanks for watching, take care.

We will have to head up that way next year.

The fringe is cool and I love that burgundy metallic. I was going to get the metallic green, but the guy I held the door for at the dealer bought it. I guess I was destined to get the black one. Thanks for watching.

Yes you can, but with the stock seat it requires more stops to make the ride comfortable. With an aftermarket seat the rides between stops can be extended. I put a Corbin Touring seat on mine and now those long rides are even easier. Look up my review on the seat for more info on it. Let me know if you have anymore questions.

@@IdahoMtnRider thanks so much

Sorry for wasting your time. But I have found this a good way to clean the windshield while out on the road without having to pack any chemicals that may spill in my saddle bags and get on my gear. Plus it is basically free. I do thank you for watching and commenting. Take care.

Thanks for the kind words. All is well here just, just super busy. I do have a few videos that still need to be edited from last season so hopefully I will get some slower times this winter to get them out. The roads have turned to snow so probably no riding until spring but already have some plans for next year. Hope you and yours have a good holiday season too. Stay turned, there will be a few more vids coming this winter. Take care.

Glad it was helpful! And thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks for watching. After living with the bike for a few years the vibration doesn't seem as bad as I may have made it out on this first review. If you get a chance to take one out for a test ride I would give it a try before totally writing it off. Meanwhile enjoy that Tiger as I will my KLR by going out and getting it dirty.
