I just had my freshly coated grab rail to put back on which completes the 'fettling' for this Year 👍

Bloody hell mate, that exhaust is stunning. Love it!

Cheers Dan, I thought I may regret not going for the Black Yoshi cyclone but I'm loving everything about the Cobra 👍

That's a sensational looking bike around Red, well done.
As a B&W owner, I'm starting to get concerned & think you are influencing me.
I have had black mirrors for a while now, but just put on a set of black levers as well  :grin:

I spoke to a councillor and should now be ok. I only went off track, not completely lost my marbles. B&W it is :)

Participate in riding season opening parade.
Considering, there is only 1.4m people in Estonia, few thousands bikes run is huge.  :)

KiwiCol

A few THOUSAND!!  That's amazing!  would be great to be part of that.
😎  Always looking for the next corner.  😎

Tony Nitrous

That's a great turn out !      :onya:

We think of Australia as not having a huge population (compared to the US / UK etc)
but even here in Brisbane we have well over 2 million folk and no rides like that.

gsxbarmy

Now THAT is something else - would love to be a part of that sort of ride  :onya: :clapping:
Nothing to do.............all day to do it....I love retirement :lol:

Pulled the worn Battlax 023 out of the front.

I have a near new Dunlop Roadsmart 111 on the rear,
will see what the shop has in stock on my way home from work tomorrow.

Either a matching front or something a bit more sticky.

I think, the reason is, our homeland size and climate. Climate is not very friendly to motorcyclist (half a year maximum), so you have to like motorcycles very much to own and ride it. And it's max 300km run from farest place, to participate in this kind of event.

Yesterday, it was 11th time, this annually parade was organized. It's organized by local MC (they have a sponsors and lottery to cover they expenses). Every year they count riders. I could not find annually statistik, but I know in 2014 was ~2700 and as I remember 2015 it was something like ~3600. 2016 was rainy, and it was less then 2000. This year, was much more riders, but there is no numbers yet.
Also riders from Latvia and Finland are participating in this event.
Just to comparing - official Guinness record in 2014 was 1100 motorcycles riding in a 1 row :)
There is also season closing parade, but for sure, it's not such popular as opening.

there is some videos from previous and current years:
