The weather was nice on Saturday of this Labor Day weekend so I got to drive my 1987 HD FXRT.  This was before we set out:


130 miles later we were at the door:


To keep it on topic we looked over their inventory:




They also had a WD45 on the lot but it was leaning over with a flat tire so wasn't worthy of a picture.

Anything orange is worthy of a picture :)

I WANT THAT 6080!!!  I love the looks of those tractors and one day I'm going to get one.
 
I just noticed another AC cab hiding down there. I checked their website and they only list the WD45.

That must be a 82 Honda Silver Wing. I have an 83 and there are a couple of subtle differences such as a bridge on the front forks at the fender. A very reliable trouble free bike.

I'll have to ask Scott what year the Silver Wing is, it was his idea to take the motorcycles up there.  He had some parts to pick up and we both had some things to check on in the parts department.  It was a good day for the ride for sure.

I should have taken a picture of the WD45 as it was of course worthy :-)  I just had to come up with an excuse as to why I didn't have a photo other than I just forgot.  The rims were not rusted out or wet so there must not have been any fluid in them with the one rear being flat.

Nice pictures of Orange.  It is discouraging to see what it says under the dealer name instead of "Allis-Gleaner Co"
