It's been a long ordeal... This is how I bought her.

But she's finally found her wings, and we flew today! And it feels so good to have his n hers on the porch. (Thanks Wycked!)

I know some of you must have grown tired of my complaining waiting for parts. But it's all over now. Sans one turn signal, no offense Dave


Two 9R's getting their rest, they'll need it with no idea what's in store!

If it's upside down and burning, you've gone too fast!!!

I don't see the loop of case hardened chain between the spokes of both rear wheels. Tying them together makes it LOTS harder for a couple of folks to pick them up and walk with them. I lost my 1997 ZX-7 on a porch at the front of the house like yours looks, with 3 people and my supposedly early warning system, CHUCK the poodle, all happily asleep inside. We didn't hear a thing. You have to use the locks EVERY time or you may gradually lay off on them and that's when they strike, that's my story, anyhow...

Charlie's Buell of Yuma...has a good ring to it!Man I wish my wife could do the same. She's pretty scared of my XB. She hasn't even ridden with me yet! You are a lucky man Charlie!

Curtyd,

My early warning system is his n hers handguns and a Great Dane Chow mix (Name's Gozer, yea, the Gozarian LOL!). Anybody setting foot on my porch uninvited is getting their balls shot off and fed to my dog. This is AZ and we have a he needed shootin' law!

JK, I am going to invest in a chain. Thanks for the suggestion. Point of interest, a chain saved this very bike from theft out the back of a truck when it belonged to Wycked...

Wycked,

Unfortunately I'm working a 48 this weekend. Week after that I'm heading to San Diego. If you find a reason to head out there, (Um, visit family?) we could all ride out together. Gonna leave on Fri afternoon.

Ski,

Still wondering if you're coming out for Desert Talon????

Yeahcmon,

Thanks, gotta love cheapie floods from walmart! If I had known my wifes gay watermelon was in the pic I would have removed it! LOL!

Tucsonxb9s,

Man I wish... It's still a dream of mine when I get out to open a shop... Never know. Definitely won't be in Yuma though! As far as your wife, never say never. I started Elizabeth walking around the convention center parking lot on her toes. Next thing I know she's pulling wheelies! Oh, no not really. But I was surprised at how fast she caught on.

It really sucks when your wife, with an extreme weight advantage pulls away from you as your 9R grumbles against your weight! LOL! But I wouldn't know anything about that...

If it's upside down and on fire, you've gone too fast!
