50K and still a dream

After 2 years and 40 days of owning my 2005 Tiger I can still say that the 50K hard earned have been a dream. 

I purchased it with just over 12K miles as a 40th birthday gift for myself

The day I bought her  :thumbsup

Playing in the The Mt. St. Helens national forest.

Small loop around my backyard The Gifford Pinchot National forest during the early spring

Of course she gets washed from time to time

And she likes to take a small nap from time to time.

She even has her own road.

Sometimes that road leads to beautiful little lakes

Sometimes that road leads to the coast and rides on the beach.

Sometimes that road leads to Salt Lake City for the World superbike races

Even the Bonneville salt flats is a destination

She's even been off the road and in this situation

And off road to this butte to see the fire lookout in central Oregon. 

Does one of these things not belong. 

The smallest of upgrades a Hyperpro spring on the stock shock. A lot better, but I still want more suspension upgrades.
I've only done a couple upgrades cause the basic package was so well. Some just keep racking up the miles.



The fruits of my labor  :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Congratulations.  :occasion14 That'll be its Golden Anniversary. Some great photos. Do you realise you have averaged to ride your Girly 49.3mpd (miles per day) that's great.  :notworthy

Hey, Thanks for posting up great pictures of your Girly! I have the same combination of wind shields and like the ease of switching them out.
Like you I can't get enough of mine,
