Dorky photos from my ride out on the Rattler today. For a beat up 1980 XS400, it sure still kicks some corner ass. I’ve found a new favorite route very near my house, 45 miles of twisties and nicely paved road. Part of which includes the somewhat famous ‘Bull Run’ road.

Rust Bucket Project: The Bondo Bike
