I did it! I Joined the 2.5L Club

I escaped CA 5 years ago and never looked back. A once great place destroyed by lefty politics and lefties. I sure miss the NorCal riding, best there is.

Road it home today the 76 miles from San Bernardino. Beat the rain fortunately. Now there are exactly 80 miles. The dealer said they did a full check over the bike yesterday and showed me the checklist, but when I installed the FOBO sensors both the front and rear each were 10lbs under pressure. Either their pump was miscalibrated or they didn't do the check. Bike looked perfect though. They got the tires pumped up though and away I went. Such a thrill to ride, though I was on freeway to get home ahead of the weather. Will plan a proper ride next week after adjusting the foot rests and suspension along with a secondary check on the brakes and fluid levels. Planning all the farkling this week too. Need that Lamonster mount for my phone and possibly the enlarged rack so my dog carrier will have good support.

@Kevin frazier will have to wait a bit for my next post with pictures though . On the wrong computer.

I was visiting family in Palm Desert in 2013. Rode my 11 Scrambler to the San Berdo shop and left with a Trophy ST, worst bike I ever owned, had my lawyer push Triumph to refund every cent and take it back. Went back to HD for years, now have my 2023 R3GT, 2024 Speed 400 and my wife rides a Speedmaster. Triumph is doing good stuff these days.
