buddy

Been thinking a lot since I been on rehab with my knees and I have to say this is best I felt in some time sure knees still mending but worlds difference Been thinking this be the last B2Dad&Moms meet and that least 9 couples we rode with moved on so did I in a way due to my knees so I gave in and sold all my bikes so I really looked my life over thinking would I change any thing ? Yes several items so here I am doing really good in rehab got my meds straighten out on my knees moving around good some what lol One thing I wished I could change was selling my Midnight years back wish I kept it ! even tho I sold all my bikes selling Midnight be the biggest mistake I felt I made as selling the cycles Any how I stop by my friends motorcycle shop to visit as always drinking coffee Chris asked if I felt like maybe riding cycles again since I doing so well ? Maybe if I hadn't sold all my bikes mind you I was at my lowest point ! So I was looking around as always checking out the bikes Chris said look in the back room ? Stating he had a bike in there ? So I looked and I almost lost it there was my Midnight he knew it was my old bike ! So we talked $ and he let me have it for 4,900.00 Never say never when you can still ride ! Never give up your passion when told move on never selling Midnight ever! Will trike it in a few years I thought going to a convertible would feel in the gap but it dint I felt out of place in rides and meets 2004 Midnight back at home no issues coming home knees doing good meds straighten out Photo : Midnight at Chris shop

Cool and it's Blue too sweet bikes too

OUCH Dang Dan you have to watch out for those floor boards on Second Gen. Big difference between First & Second Gen. / Second Gen. shorter making it harder on the knees and legs trying to keep it up right , never dropped my First Gen.! but the Second Gen. Was dropped several times

Very nice !!! now if I still had my Midnight I be asking for one lol Better get a patten before you get cheated I bet you have one made for B2dad as well if not you better you know how he love adding goodies to his sweet ride lol Wish my Goldwing 1500 had an skid plate when I damaged it

Happy Birthday Robin may your day be blessed and Bob spoils you rotten

Well it's here as we have Tornado just east of us it came over our house heading east we be in the clear now so summer is here now oh yeah we may have snow tomorrow in northern Oklahoma Old saying goes If you don't like the weather here in Oklahoma just wait it will change lol

That looks show room new !! My favorite color too

WOW what a deal !!!! Now I'm gonna go back to my corner and cry

I knew you was getting close if not over the 100,000 mark which I forgot lol three that I know of now instead of two lol Hope all is good see you next month at Patti&Don meet Buddy

I did that with my Midnight but I moved my right foot just in time keep from hurting it real good my boot caught on passenger floorboard causing it to get pulled under That last statement you made had me rolling in the floor bout winning in dancing

I think I make a painful face too someone passing a phone at me but I think I would say something else besides ouch

If so why you buy a Second Gen. Dan tell the truth here we go again See U next month Dan

Buzzinga

Happy Birthday Ann wishing your day be blessed and full of joy God bless

I wished I bought Wildhair39 First Gen. When he sold it years back Bike was welled used with 164,000 plus miles but it dint look like it and ran like a charm Most know the bike I'm talking about

I'm like Dan I follow where ever the road takes me One time Peg took a nap so I went for a ride when she got up I was already back home with wind burn on my face and arms lol told her I took a short ride to Texas lol

I know a couple members here with Second Gen. Are close if not already over 100,000 miles mark and I'll let them chime in if they want Only issue they had was the dreaded rear shock everything else was preventive maintenance 7 Eleven worker here in Marlow has I believe a 1997 Royal Star with over 300,000 miles only issues she had was the stator go out at 200,000 + miles she rode every where only time bike was not rode was when it was ice or snow

Thanks Kev for the info When I had my 83 Beast I could not get 491 due to the E3 replacing them. This was back around 2006 so it's been a while

Here you go skid I found this on the other venture forum worked great for me

Skid I made my brackets from a templet I found in I think Second Gen. Tech section ? I printed it off and used it to make my brackets Buddy

Even your subconscious knows better

Yes you can You can send a PM to Freebird - Eck - Squidley - Etc asking for name change. Freebird is the big cheese Let us know your new forum name Buddy

Yep same here since they cancelled Dunlop 491 RWL

Happy Birthday John Wishing you a big BD and hope Sharon is spoiling you rotten! Hope to see you both soon Peg said hi oh she wanted to tell Sharon (water) Remember Sharlybill meet LOL
