Hi Mr. Miller, hope you are having a great day. My ride is a 21 Goldwing Tour Manual 6 speed and I love it. At the time of purchase I had no other options due to the shortage of bikes. I did test ride a DCT and liked it as well. Over time I added a back rest, handlebar riser kit and highway pegs. Now I feel more relaxed when riding. Thanks for taking us along on your ride. My bike is put away for the winter so a view over the handlebars is a welcome sight. Ride Safe.
Thank you for your comment! Here in North Texas we do have some cold days in the winter with occasional ice and snow. However, we do get to ride year round. There are days every winter month with high temperature of 70 degrees. But then in the summer it is 100 degrees almost every day.
Breaking in the new wing on the sisters... Something I must do next spring !! Tom I'm 5'9" and do have the Helibars... that was my first thought when you said your back was hurting. It did make the riding position more comfortable for me. I've got a video installing them if you need to see that. Yes get a belly pan first ! Thanks for taking us along Tom !!

The Heli bars were the 1st accessory I put on the bike. Total neck and back pain reliever. 5'-8" with a 30" inseam, a perfect fit.
Thanks for the recommendation!

Thanks you for your comments, Robert! I will check out your installation video. Unfortunately, I do not have a lot of mechanical skills :-(.
Was just there on Monday. Great ride!
Yes, it is a GREAT ride!
Its tough to make it out, but is that a Ram claw clamp on the left handlebar holding the GoPro?? TIA.......
No it is just a generic clamp that I picked up on Amazon. I will want to get the Ram claw clamp in the near future.
I was curious about the size, Ram makes a small, medium, and large. Did you install the clamp on the metal bars? Thanks
Yes, it clamps directluy on the handlebar. @@robertlorentz3670
Roads look decidedly dangerous with loose chippings
Hush it's a beautiful ride. Kangaroos and all.
And that black stuff you see on the road is rubber. It gets so hot in Texas that vehicle tires will get on the road
It looks worse than it is. The chippings that you see are NOT loose. That is the way that they make some of the roads around here.
E is silent.. Leakey pronounced Lakey👍🏼
Thanks for the info. I am not originally from around here.
