Since I've fathered two children, I believe I have done my part to delay this change.

The mother?.... lovely.

Me?....not so much.

Ooooohhhh, a VERY good situation to be in.

Now you just need to heed the strings:
Purse strings and
heart strings.

Whatever gets your blood pumping and is within your budget. Lucky duck.

If we're listing vehicles we like, this will be a long series of posts (when 17 I loved my Morris Minor - the funkiest POS car in Kansas City, Kansas). Instead I think "process" will be my focus. Me, I have a plain vanilla, bare bones pick up. I believe I always will drive a truck. My poin...

What he said.

Gypsy,
I don't claim any knowledge of the accuracy of this site. But it looks like Virginia and Washington DC are the no-no zones.

I think it's a beauty, Tony. Anemic? May be. But since it wouldn't be your primary bike, who cares? What a joy it would be to scoot along on that old boxer. I had a shot at a clean, running 750 a few years ago and have regretted passing it up ever since. Of course, if you do give it a shot, pics, pi...

Thanks TowerW,

I'll check tonight.

But what I really need to know is the psi I should shoot for in my halogen headlight?

I've never had, or used (except for one VERY limited exposure) a MAC. Since my office, as with most others is non-Mac oriented it made a lot of sense. But those walls seem to be crumbling fast. I might have to try this out, especially since our teenager is up for a new box. (Side note: DSKYZD - your...

Party hard. The world ends in 2000.

Has anyone using straight copper tubing had an issue with leaks or is anyone worried about it coming apart? The connectors all have "barbed" ends to help hold them in the fuel line. Good question....I'm looking for some straight pieces of tube to replace the dis-connects..but I'm looking ...

For me it would be to lose 25 pounds.... to start.

The late Congressman Claude Pepper told a story about his first big political race. It seemed Mr. Pepper was leasing until his opponent announced that Mr. Pepper' sister (an actress) was a known thespian and his brother was a card-carrying Homo sapien.

Mr. Pepper lost.

Nothing wrong with that tire that an ice pick can't fix.

Nice bike.

Nice house too, Gary.

Here's what the front end always reminds me of...Pinky

For those who don't know, Pinky is the one on top.

Put another way...the Alabama way...how big are the neighbors....how accommodating is the yard?

Happy B'day young 'un. (Me too, I celebrated the 26th anniversary of my 29th birthday just last January...still a kid).

Ditto. I spent years with review of fatals on the Interstate system as part of my job. My wife still gets to see way too many fatalities involving heavy trucks. I've had more than my fill. But, for those that think it helps, go ahead, you never know.

You're missing out....she looks good. I'll be waiting to see the finished product.

I have a 2004. I'd get rid of mine in a heart beat *... IF I could pick any three bikes I want to replace it. I'd have a touring bike (maybe an R1200RT), a dual-purpose bike (KLR 650, perhaps) and a light, sporty bike (an SV650 for example). With those three I could do anything my Roadster does, and...

Great job on the report.

I'm a native Kansan and can attest to some astonishing winds out on the great plains... never had my helmet blow away, though.
