It does seem common with new riders. I beep my horn and light goes off.

Saw some Grom Folk in Groveport today. TBH I see Grom Folk a lot these days. Seems like I see very few bikes over 400cc on the street anymore unless they are Harleys.

To be honest they are riot. I lean to small bore bikes in general, the wife wants a dual sport next, but finding something with a low enough seat height has been interesting. I ordered a rear lowering link, gonna lower my DR and see if she likes it. I ride from out east to Columbus on my 250.

I always like seeing all those old motels and motor courts with the little cabins on US 40. Of course it seems like there are fewer and fewer of them each time I go through there.

New copper plug, the iridium in it seems quite worn. 

Did a oil change including cleaning the oil spinner and adjusted the valves. Took it to drop off recycling.

Brake fluid was getting dark, decided I should probably change the fluid. Had to easy out the screws since PO stripped them. 

Always suprised how good these brake are for being just pads and rotor.

Not to go off-topic, but I love this photo. Many years ago, I was in S. Africa where cars and gas are very expensive. Driving a big truck or SUV is not practical, so everyone has a hitch on their car and owns a small trailer. Many places even have trailer parking lots with loops in the ground to lock your "luggage trailer" to. Its amazing how versatile even a small car can be with a trailer. When I got home, I put a hitch on my car and bought a utility trailer. I have never owned a pickup truck, but I have hauled my ATV, 4 x 8 sheets of wood, a yard of mulch, firewood, motorcycles, etc. etc. etc.

Small car and trailer is the best. I don't currently own a truck and renovated a house out of this trailer. Here is a bonus pic.

Went to the honda dealer and decided to spend a few dollars to clean up the bike some. At some point this spring it got tipped over and tank plastic scratched. 

Stripped down. 

New and old fenders. 

All back together. 

Everyone knows grom fenders make good hats.

There was a group of about 10 of these on the road last night when I went out for a ride.  All sorts of customs-paint, white wall tires, exhaust.  The group was having a blast.
