It’s Wednesday. Now that summer is here, I asked my readers to send in photos of their summer toys to have them featured here on my site. The first to arrive is Rob’s 1981 Suzuki GS550. Looking at it closely it’s hard to believe that it’s 40 years old and still in such good condition. Very cool, Rob. Keep it on the road and enjoy it.

Keep, You featured my Harley Sportster already, But now I have my 1981 Suzuki GS550 out of mothballs and ripping up the road in the sun. Hard to believe the UJM’s (Universal Japanese Motorcycles) are 40 odd years old now. I wanted one as a teenager, the bookkeeper’s boyfriend had one and I lusted after it and also to be honest the bookkeeper. This is the last of the two valve GS’s and has anti-dive forks. Sounds great, it is fast enough and very comfortable for my 6’1″ – who says Japanese bikes don’t last. -Rob
It’s Tuesday. I think. I hope everyone had a good holiday. I spent part of it in central Illinois with my girlfriend’s side of them family. We did the traditional cookout thing and had a great time. The next day we came back home and had another cookout with my side of the family. Again, more tasty food and we all had a good time. If every weekend was like that I’d be 500 pounds by the end of summer. Thankfully the next major holiday isn’t until July.
Summer Fun
It’s Thursday. I have another summer toy to share with all of you today. It comes from Shannon, a reader who sent in this photo of his beautiful 2013 Harley-Davidson Road Glide. He says that it has over 65k miles on it, but you certainly can’t tell because its obviously been very well cared for. Enjoy the summer, Shannon, and thanks for sending it in!

Hey Keep, here’s a shot of my 2013 Road Glide. She doesn’t look like she’s got over 65k miles. Does she? -Shannon
