Fantastic pictures.  Sorry you got burned.

Re your starter - after having three starters on my bike, I now -

Only Start My Bike In Neutral - Always - Anytime - No matter who is waiting on me.  I Only Start My Bike In Neutral. 

I hope to not have to buy any more starters.

Looks like a great trip.

Good morning All !

The last week, I've made a trip from my area, (between Lyon and Grenoble near The Alps) to the Pyrenees (Mountain between Spain and France and Atlantic ocean and Mediteranean sea).

I rode 1100 miles through different landscapes of France.
You'll discover these in four topics for the most important steps :
1) Millau and the Bridge
2) East Pyrenees mountain
3) The Cathare area
4) The gorges of Tarn.

I wished to travel to the European Rally in Fuengirola in the South of Spain but I was not sure of my stock CUSE².
My wish was to meet the other europeans friends of the CVO sites during this event.
So, I decided a ride with similar conditions of temperature for test my gaskets and others parts.
Result : My starter is out and the bike run very hot (see the pic of my left leg)

When I read the problems of Eqcons (Jim of Scotland), I believe that I was careful  ....

Go with me in this Ride !

Jacques

Man. that is one rare looking turkey leg  ;D

Great photos, Jacques!  Beautiful scenery.  Too bad about your leg and your bike problems.  Neutral switch is out perhaps?

The injury to leg is heat transmitted thru pant (jeans).
I ride never with a short pant.

Jacques

Jacques I'm no doctor but something is not right with that leg. Your socks may be too tight, cutting off your circulation or is it swollen. :nixweiss: You should see the doc.
Take care.
