1rooster Posted June 30, 2014 #1 Posted June 30, 2014 rI have diabetes and now I have the bad feet along with it.Harder and harder to hold the bike up.After the Asheville rally I will be selling my venture.Time to put more miles on the convertible.I still love the wind in the face.
Beau-Kat Posted June 30, 2014 #2 Posted June 30, 2014 Sad to hear that about your riding days. But you sure have a cool car there! Oughta get a lot of enjoyment outa that thing.
mm482 Posted June 30, 2014 #4 Posted June 30, 2014 Sorry riding is getting to that point, but glad you have the convertibles as a good back up. Earl
1rooster Posted June 30, 2014 Author #6 Posted June 30, 2014 Think you'll enjoy that ride ! I put 25,000 miles on it since I owned it.By the end of summer it will be time for new tires and the 19's aren't cheap.
pmelah Posted June 30, 2014 #7 Posted June 30, 2014 Gerald sorry your feet are giving you problems i would like to have met up with you on a ride to show you that the red 84 you sold me was getting some road time but now she is hickuping and dont want to run right i think the carbs need rebuilding so she sits for now anyway enjoy the convertable looks like fun
bongobobny Posted June 30, 2014 #8 Posted June 30, 2014 Pretty much the main reason I went to trike...
Venturous Randy Posted June 30, 2014 #9 Posted June 30, 2014 Gerald, I know what you mean. I have been dealing with diabetes for about 35 years and did not do a good job with controlling it. I have also had thoughts and discussions about what is in my future. I have a 96 wing with reverse that I have thought about triking and even the Miata route. We have one locally I would love to have that would probably pull a trailer easily. Look at this one: http://tricities.craigslist.org/cto/4474135543.html RandyA
