If you decide to drain everything while in storage, I would suggest you fog everything with a good marine fogging spray. Pull the plugs and fog cylinders and everything else inside and outside. Very humid enviro. things are gonna want to rust. Craig

Welcome home, glad you are healing up pretty well. Bike or no bike it aint a bad place to hang out, I learn something new every day on this site. Craig

Great story and looks like a nice project, all the best with the restoration. Cant wait to see the finished product. Craig

Man, that is what I call a custom seat! Looks great, they really do nice work! Craig

Put my name on the list, I wanna ride one of those! Craig

Dont think he is set up for bitcoin yet:scared: Craig

Looks interesting, hopefully someone will have some exp. with this type replacement. Craig

On all the bikes I have owned, the brake lites work when the bike is sitting still and the brakes are applied. Thats how they inspect them here in Pa. Should lite when front or rear brakes are applied. Mite want to check the fuses. Craig

Pinstripes look great, nice touch! Craig

How bout The Rebel Johnny Huma... Craig

Yep the Cannon resort was awesome, would highly recommend.:thumbsup2::thumbsup2: Craig

So very sorry to hear this Lewis, will keep Cole and your entire family in our thoughts at this difficult time. Craig

Looks like you are livin the dream, beautiful pics of a beautiful area. Craig

Really gonna cut down on the tire debates, but I like the concept! Craig

Yep, me too!

Beautiful! Love that color! Seems like Yamaha is selling alot of the new bikes, even before the weather really breaks. Craig

Congrats on the new bike, looks beautiful! Can't wait for your ride report and your thoughts on heat issues. Craig

Bike looks beautiful, Congrats sure you are going to enjoy all the latest tech and from what I understand amazingly smooth lowend stump pulling power. Look forward to more pics and your ride report. Craig

Beautiful pics keep them coming! Thanks for taking us along on your ride, it feels great. We have snow falling heavy rite now, so I have the best of both worlds look outside to a beautiful snow scene or check the computer for a great ride thru the desert on a sunny day with beautiful blue skies. Thanks Craig

Beautiful Bike, enjoyed reading your initial thoughts. The main thing every new owner seems to stress is the smooth power rite off the line. I really want to take one for a test ride and feel that for myself. Thought I was done buying motocycles, but maybe not... Craig

Bike looks beautiful Jonas, a lot of "buttering up" in your opening explaination. I guess I know what that means:big-grin-emoticon: Craig

Very sorry for your loss, hopefully you get some answers and if not, try to remember the good times. All the best to you and your family at this difficult time. Take Care, Craig

When I tried the 130 it just seemed too light at highway speeds 70mph. Didnt want to hold a line. It was alot nicer at slow speed handling tho. I went back to 150 since I spend alot more time at 60-70 mph then I do in a parking lot. Alot of different opinions on 130/150 glad your enjoying the switch. At 6'7" 285 you could probably plant your feet pick bike straight up by bars and spin a 180 in one lane:thumbsup2: Craig

Yea that sux, I was hoping you had a nice clean fix. Hopefully the next section goes alittle easier and takes care of the problem. Mite want to take a steel rod and try busting up the clog while flushing pipe out with a hose. Stop if the water in the room gets up to your knees:crying: Craig

I am still an Avon fan and the new Cobra seems great. Never had one crack or split and I have been running them for years on 2 bikes. I always got pretty good mileage out of them too. Dont know how they compare on price though. I am sure all tires recommended are good, we have alot of tar snakes around here and I am always looking for how the tires handle the snakes. Craig
