Larry
Rides Again.
Five months off the road. Paint, forks, bearings, and front brake work. Then, finally, a Saturday ride.

The return
Back where he belongs.
Larry was off the road from May until October 2026 while I repainted the bike and completed additional mechanical work. That included replacing the front forks and work on the front brake system.
On October 24, I took him back out for a shakedown. I checked the bike along the way, rode on I-10, and finished with 42 miles on the day.
These are the actual photographs and camera recordings from that ride. No staged shots, and no synthetic motorcycle footage.
