This is truly awesome. Despite the fullness of her life, you must miss her tremendously. Sometimes one picture is enough to see when someone is really something else!

Got a pic of my old man checking out my Fatty in my garage today (she's in hibernation, it's pretty much winter here). So I told him to pose for the camera. Stupidity followed...
Seeing as many store their bikes for winter, how about a shot of you doing winter maintenance/mods on your dyna?Attachment 490095
Winter isn't for another six weeks so are you saying we have to wait till then to post a picture?

Meet the challenge with a photo and advise us of another challenge, it's simple.
At this point though, I'm un-sure what the riding challenge actually is,,
My Mother is 99 and lives across town, she's too feeble to put on a motorcycle at this point and I'm not going to roll the wheelchair out for a photo op just for a forum,,, My Dad's been gone for 15yrs,,
I'm going riding with what little time we have left here in Minn.

The current challenge looks like it is: Seeing as many store their bikes for winter, how about a shot of you doing winter maintenance/mods on your dyna? That is why I asked if we had to wait until winter to be able to submit the picture.

Just for the sake of keeping this thing going (sort of)...

I know it's not a Dyna but it makes me happy (I'll include a Dyna in the pic though). I finally got 1 step closer to getting my 1971 Triumph Bonneville registered by getting the RTA issued frame number stamped.

The 13 digit numbers have to be stamped perfectly, in a certain size and spacing - something I know I'd have difficulty doing on the round yoke. After a year of trying to find someone to do it, I finally got someone so here's the bonny on the trailer about to be 'rebirthed' (in a legal way).

Here's the bonny about to get unloaded at the shop:




Here it is getting "worked on" for the upcoming RTA inspection.




Now, someone please come up with a legit challenge and I'll try to meet it given that I'm on the bottom of the world and coming into summer!

Kinda hoping there would be a riding challenge. I got all day and it's 65F and clear outside. (And, the Chiefs are ahead!) Guess I'll go "no where special."

Oh, for a maintenance thing, I installed Burly easy clutch devices on 2 FXDL's.
