Crickets here.


I am wondering and curious if the motor is back together and running.


Spring time and riding season is just around the corner.

I think not. Too much time being spent on flannels, boots, tractors and making disparaging remarks about an owners new CVO. <<<<<<<<<<<< Notice the "joke" smiley. This is so one does not have to back peddle when making a comment that is meant as a joke.

Stock photo on the ground??? What would be the point of putting up more pics of my bikes taken apart? It would not make you happy, or us friends. I am not going to neogiate with black mailers. If you want to believe I don't own a bike, I don't care. Why would I care what you think?

I shared my choices and what I rant into, some might find it interesting, maybe give coolio the courage to work on a bike. You, I am not sure could read a manual
