Just a bit of a ride on the new Moto Storichei pipes.

I may have taken it to 5k rpm once, but really just cruising along. I think around 160 miles on the engine now.

Sounds pretty good. The intake noise even with the air filter sounds pretty good too, combined with the exhaust note.

Spin balancing the front tyre.
I learned on the same type machine back in high school. It is old enough to be tube driven!

Wow, forgot they used to do it that way - "dynamic balancing" as I recall.

I took the sei up for a ride to Hurricane Ridge. This is in Olympic National Park (NW Washington State, US).- right behind my house.
Sea level to 5200 feet in 17 miles or so. It was icy on some turns on the North side, but I knew that and took is very carefully.
Great mountain views.

I still have not done the tank/side covers of course, may be spring unless we get some quite warm weather a couple of days (you never know around here).

Some tunnels on the way up- I was wishing I had my video camera so I could record going through them.

Motorcycles are so much better when there ridden, looks like a fab ride!

I just did an initial vaporhone for a spare cam cover. Still a bit more touch up, but certainly looks nice.
