Working on strength, range of motion is back to normal. I may be going to a new job in Kingston TN. Negotiating salary right now. Same kind of work.

Dalmation ears .... Been wearing them for over seven years. He is a conservative rider, especially on that road. We both have seen more than our fair share of incidents. I don't think he went over 40 based on tach readings. His main goal when he rides the Dragon is to not use the...

Hey folks, been a while. Want to share a great video a friend made at the the SVRally this year. Does a great job capturing the state of mind, environment and the frenetic nature of the road for both those who have and those who never been there. The Dragon Enjoy and let me know what...

High quality screwdriver on motorcycles means buying a set of JIS screwdrivers. JIS means Japanese Industry Standard and the screws have a dot indented next to the Phillips looking cross. Japanese bikes don't have Swiss cheese Phillips screws, instead, Americans use Phillips screwdrivers on...

Visiting the kids for a long overdue meeting. Wife has seen them every year but I haven't seen the grandkids in four years due to just having two weeks of vacation. Planning on making another trip to northern Maine in August sometime. Tell Mich that I will buy the Stebel as a gift ...

:doh2: Decals should be replaced with a nice Stars and Bars sticker and a Stebel playin' Dixie! Those yurple things are fugly! :poke: Hey! I'm flying up to banger this coming weekend. You guys coming up? My shoulders need some loving and like a trailer park housewife, I keep coming...

:bowdown: Please have the decency to let my last meal be one of Eric's fine culinary works of art! A good burp is all I can offer in gratitude! :)

That WAS a long ride! :nana: Guess she's too sore to abuse me with a keyboard! :poke: EDIT: I am quivering with anticipation! ;D .

I was gonna make some wisea$$ remark about karma being a biotch regarding all the scar tissue I accumulated over the years whenever I was in close proximity to Mich ... :fencers: Oh ... I see what I did there :evilgrin: Congrats on the ride ... can I assume you did the Kank? Are the...

Hey Eric, Dobermans own you, not the other way around. Norm has that point of view totally correct. They really believe they are people. I miss mine, hands down, the best dog that ever owned me.

You got to do what you gotta do. People rank higher than "things" and material possessions can always be replaced. Some people learn that lesson too late if ever. Life is short ... make it sweet. Shoulda, coulda, woulda do not belong in a good decision. Wish you luck and good roads...

Riding with a pack on your back is asking for trouble if you ever go down. That mass strapped on your back is not a good thing to have. I have a Swiss backpack that has been in use for 5+ years and commuted over 25k miles with it strapped to the back seat of my bike with an Eclipse bungie...

Nah ... Mich does not ride ... she is ... :hook2: Hi Mich! :surrender: <stirring pot> :D

Sorry for the loss ... Mocha Dude had a great life with caring people. I remember the first week he was in your home ... WOW ... that was a long time ago! It is a privilege and honor to share a life for so long ... the both of you have nothing to regret for what you did for him. Tell...

@Michele ... you deserve this threadjack ... just visualize in your mind the enormous satisfaction you will get by punching me in the shoulder! You can't lie to me, I can hear that giggle and see that grin on your face right now!

@Eric I am planning to fly up next spring to visit family and friends. Been 4 years since I saw my grandkids which sucks cause all I get is two weeks vacation a year with this job. Wife has been up several times to see them already. Most of my vacation time in the past few years has...

Actually have not ridden much this year. Been spending almost every weekend working with a local grassroots organization cleaning up tornado damage from the EF4 we had in this area on April 27th. I have two chainsaws and more than a few years working in the woods when I lived in northern...

Hey Mich ... Trade that bike in for a SV650 gurley bike! <evil grin> <presenting right shoulder for typical Michele salutation> Sucks that happened ... most places here in the south have grit in the paint to prevent that from happening. One of the reasons why I stuck with my bike...

Taking it to PM ... ;D

Where from in Northern Maine? I am originally from Madtown, now in TN. Still have not made the leap over to the FZ1, still satisfied with the SV.
