    A great BIG thank you goes out to Black Owl!! Gary's is putting new seals on my front shocks and Russell was kind enough to help him out over the phone last night. He got them all apart and cleaned and was just starting to put them back together when he got a fire call, so he'll finish them up tonight. This is a great site and the people on here are the best. Thanks again Russell! :bighug:We both really appreciate it!!

    We had 3 sons, when the twins turned 16 it just about killed us trying to keep up with the premiums. Ate beans and weenies for a few years!!! The sad thing is, the premiums are just about as much as a used car payment for them!

    Thanks for your help!! I've printed out the instructions on the Virago tech site and will give them to Gary tonight!! He just called and said parts will be here Wed. Looks like it takes a couple of hours, so hopefully we will have her back together by the weekend! $73.00 just for parts. Wonder what they'd charge for labor? Not complaining though as this is the first money we've had to spend on her! Thanks again and keep your fingers crossed!

    Gary and I went riding yesterday. I have a 95 1100 Virgago. Anyway, I notice an oil ring about an inch wide on my left front fork. He thinks it's the seal in it. Anyway, took it out and noticed it wasn't "feeling" like normal", so I had him drive it. He definatley thinks it's the seal in the front shock. So, here's my question. Is this something we can fix ourselves or does the whole bike have to go into the shop? (I consider myself lucky, as I've had the bike and have never had a single problem) Just hoping this isn't major surgery. Any advise would be appreciated!

    It's been a really rotten week at work and with what's going on in the world I've been in a real schlump this week but......just when I'm starting to enjoy my pity party that I was having, I stepped outside this morning. Wow... crystal clear blue skies, warm sun hitting my face, the trees are at thier peak.... I don't know about the rest of you, but come 5:00 the hubby and I are jumping on the bikes and it doesn't matter where we go. It's going to be great!! Hope you all get a chance to ride this weekend cuz life doesn't get any better than that!! Happy Friday!

    Just wanted to tell you guys to have a great time!! Gary and I rode up to Escanaba a couple of years ago. We camped in a little town north of there. Gladstone. It was a city campground and one of the nicest campgrounds we've ever stayed in. $15.00 for the night and our tents were right on the lake. We like it so much we rode back up there this summer. Have fun!
