It will be ok Eddie, just go out and look at the "Shiny One" and talk yourself down

I'm going to play devils advocate here, so please dont get all uptight with my statements. Do you know the rider that was in front of you? If so I would approach them and ask for them to help with the repairs. Now that statement being made, yes there are circumstances that could lead to someone freezing in a corner like debris in the road. Group riding is not for everyone, some folks should not even be on bikes little own be in a group with them. As for the donation, I personally dont feel you need to make that, unless you were way too close and didn't have good stopping distance. It's hard to judge how people are going to react in situations without riding with them for many miles. I know how hard it can be to navigate hairpin curves. You have to be committed in the act and follow through with it. Unfortunately I dont have any of the extras that you need, but I'll keep my eyes open for you.

Courtney is a great gal and I agree with Owl, those who never got to meet her have lost out. She does frequent facebook and I'd be willing to bet that she may peek in from time to time here

You really shouldn't tease Forrest like that

A Bridgeport Milling Machine and a paint booth

I'll still blame you for something and it makes my heart happy knowing people still put you on the grill for getting me here

My 1st Big fairing bike was a '78 CB750K and it was a lot of fun. That one you scored looks to be in sweet shape, have fun with it
-
As long as BradT can get blamed for it....I HATE IT!!!

Over 150 mph...

JT, Give me a call and I'd be happy to come down and help you install a block. I have replaced every one on all the 1st gens I owned and several others.

Glad to hear she wasn't too badly hurt, these things WILL jerk you back into reality immediately....all the best to you folks.

All the best my friend....

Brian, I am going to be very honest here and some folks aren't going to like what I'm about to say. I dont know how much money I would put into that RSV. Your problems do not make any sense on a newer bike with low miles. If they took the carbs apart and totally cleaned them and inspected them the problem should have been solved. If it was me, and your comfortable with the foot position of the GW....I would make that trade for the wing as long as it checked out and rode/ran good. The RSV sounds to me like there is more issues with it and you could really get hammered with it -
Another one Annie, you just had one a year ago...me thinks your being a bit greedy here!
-
Very sad news, they will be in our thoughts...
-
I wonder who could have done that?
-
Bobby, If I have issues that need Seafoam I use the entire can in a full tank of fresh fuel. Run it so it fulls the carbs and bowls up completely and let it set atleast over night or a few days if you can. Let it do it's magic and you'll be surprised how well it cleans.

We enjoyed our short time with you 2 also, just happy that you folks come down this way. Hopefully I'll have a job next year that doesn't involve 50+ hours a week. Be safe going home and we'll see you hopefully at Freebired for MD.

Hey Squidley....old project came back to life.
Squidley replied to Snaggletooth's topic in Watering Hole
Carl, Glad to see you getting some use out of them They are the best bet to use if you can get ahold of a set of them, but they are as rare as chicken lips. If I was going to start making driving light brackets again I would make them like the originals as they are very stout, but take a while to make. -
235 KPH......not a yank

I see Wes went with you...Cool Beans!
-
Looks great Bill, as always your projects are amazing!
-
Very cool for both of you, you too Eddie, I know I loved flying in the helo and hanging out the door on the gunners belt

We still love you, ya old hooter!
