Extra Motorcycle: '06 675 Track Tool
Hey guys... Long time no chat. Been spending most of my time lately over on Triumph675.net since I got my new bike. there doesn't seem to be too much action in the SuperSports forum from the 675 owners on this site.

Thought I would share some photos with you guys of my trip to The Tail of The Dragon and use it as an excuse to say hi to all of you guys...

hope you enjoy the photos...















These photos were shot by Zee Foto. You can find additional information about her by following this link.

Zee Foto

She is one of three photographers who regularly set up on The Tail of the Dragon. Once a week, she posts photos in her online store and you can order the pictures over the Internet.

The Daytona 675 is certainly an awesome machine to carve corners on. It was a blast. I can't wait until next year's trip!

Is it just me, or do those knee pucks look pretty virgin for a 675 on the Dragon?

Nice ride all the same and thanks for not being a stranger!

Definately Virgin... New suit to go with the new bike. Still haven't touched one down yet. Saving that for the upcoming track days.

I got close at The Dragon, but I'm pretty cautious while riding that stretch of road. Have you ever met a semi truck on 129? Those suckers take up both lanes...

The Dragon is fun, but I'll save the draggin' for the track...

Thanks for those. My roommate just put a deposit down on the same bike, same color. He's extremely excited now. Well, even more so than he was I guess. Now euro bikes outnumber jab bikes 3 to 2.

Correction Bluesjeans, you did drive/ride on the right side but then the little piggy in the middle (Switzerland) decided to conform to the rest of Europe and now you drive/ride on the wrong side. :-D
