Time to move on...


Herman,
You, my friend, are indeed a CLASSIC!!!
Are you coming the RAA?
 
YOU ARE ON, AMIGO!!!
Only 10 years to go . . .

I have no intention to stop riding at 80 or 90 they will have to rip the handle bars from my cold dead hands ,or I can no longer throw my leg over the bike or anything else, from 60 years of age I have had to have a full medical examination every two years to retain my MC(multiple Combination)" B Double Licence "at 70 it will be every year, I still Drive my Sons Semi at times to help him out ,we don't do Road Trains anymore, I just retain the MC licence because it was hard to get years ago

broken leg and ankle doing pretty good but i popped a rib at my back. i think i will be going to (TO BROKE FOR STURGIS) in northern az early june i will see how that goes.
if i go raa after the first 300 miles i will need help getting off the bike,after 600 miles i will need to be lifted off, after 900 miles i will need to be cover up and a large cup of coffee in the morning.
 

Not a problema then as the four days riding are all well under 300 miles.
Hope you can make it, Amigo.
 
Well, a young man and his wife from San Antonio came and took the little scooter home with them. I had a good talk with her and told her to be a good girl for them. It was hard to let her go but she will get a lot more attention there I'm sure. I introduced the new owner, Octavio, to this site and told him to stop in and meet a bunch of great people who would welcome him for sure. In the meantime, the empty spot in the garage will be filled by a 1961 Econoline pickup who needs some TLC and maybe even a big V8 transplant in place of that straight 6...

No that's not it. Just what I'm hoping to get to soon.

Taking the scenic way round to a new R3 I got to respect that, nothing wrong with playing with a new toy between upgrades but the newness wears off long before the memories/ feel of "the beast".
 
Nice project,should keep you from being bored for a while then when you're finished you'll have a sharp looking toy!
