Seems like only yesterday, lets go back to where it all began...

It looks a lot like my 1979 XS1100, except I had Pacifico fairing and luggage on it. Had to change the seat within hours of my first ride away from the dealer. Called from the road and screamed bloody murder...(actually was my BUTT screaming!) those original seats were for eternity but not for comfort. Had the bike for 5 years and loved every minute of it. STRONG motor, fun times....of course I was a LOT younger in those days! -
That was a fun bunch of people. I attended several national and regional rallies. We had lots of fun as a group then. Even over rode the GWRRA at Americade one year by leading the parade through Lake George!! I have a lot of those pins on my vest and in a drawer dedicated to "stuff" from those years.

Batman, I see you have an '88 that was triked. If I can be so nosy, who did it and what did it cost you? I have an '86 and having turned 71, would like to investigate the increased safety and stability that brings. Please respond here and at gmta@sccoast.net as well. Thanks. POLEDAR:fingers-crossed-emo

Do you really think the media would ever come that close to the truth? I would love to see the reaction of any of the media writers if Treyvon came wandering into their neighborhood at night, wearing a hoodie and walking close to their house. Never happen, because none of them would ever come close to a hood like the one where this took place. It was a tragedy, probably avoidable, but the jury has decided. The federal gov't. has no business sticking their big noses into this situation, except that the FED is so heavily invested in black employees they have to do the "civil rights" thing, no matter that the FBI already did it and found nothing to have violated civil rights in the situation. Ride on, King Obama!

We used to put red pepper flakes in bird feeders and anywhere else they might try to get. It seemed a short time of passing fire out their butts discouraged them without lethal results!

I'm curious...did the hospital order a "cooling sleeve" for your knee? It pumps ice water around the knee to keep it cooler and reduce inflammation, accelerates rehab as well! Be a good boy and do what the Dr. tells you ...+ 10%!

It was first a Honda Trail 90 in 1965 when I was 22. The next bike was a Bultaco 250 in 1968. Then nothing until 1978....:confused24:

Bobbie, I would have thought with all the hot air generated by the SC State government, that y'all would have a protective shield that would repel the snow!!!???

Please accept my deepest condolences on your loss. It is easy to empathize as I too lost a friend two weeks ago--also to cancer. It is never easy, but particularly difficult at this time of year. We can only hope we can have the good sense to take our lives as they come to us, and make the best of each and every day as God gives it to us. I wish you and all of the members of VR.org a blessed Christmas and a New Year filled with a higher level of happiness than the past two years have brought to us. POLEDAR

Greg, Just in case there should be a problem, perhaps it is better that you use Pinwheel for your supplier. Thanks. POLEDAR

Greg, If you want to cover the shipping all the way to London, I am willing to accept the $50 price tag I quoted you. Bill...
