  • And when I work on Elsix, she brings her trike in the garage and tells me it is broken and needs fixed.


    And the kids will remember it all, My boy tells me things about bikes I had when I don't think he was old enough to even talk.
    I say my old xs850, he says the one that used to backfire? I say my Kawasaki Eliminator 900, he says the one with the fan that would run forever when you turned it off?
    I scored a 78 xs11 bagger for $50 one time It was covered with crud and looked less than cool with the gaint fairing and such. He took one look at it and said with the funniest look in his eye "Dad, I think he ripped you off"

      It's true. I still remember when my dad mounted an old carburetor to the back of my "Big Wheel", and I called it the "engine"! I thought it was so cool to have real car parts on my big wheel!

        Hey Greg, good to hear from ya.
        There is no bike in my near future im afraid. Funds don't allow it and there is no time to ride with working and a 2 year old around.
        I will have another bike someday though.

        I hope you guys had a good trip to the Hill Country.

        Cheers,

                • Ray,

                  you need to go to a site like Photobucket and get an account there (its free) and upload your photos to it. Then after you upload there, when you hover on the pic a list of link types drops down. Pick the one called IMG, highlight it and hit control C to copy it then hit control V to paste that code into a fresh line of your post here. and wala, a pic is posted.
                  Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

                  When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

                            • Jim, you've got to go via a pictire hosting site, whether it's photobucket, imageshack or whoever. Load up your photo to a host site and then copy and paste the img code for forums. See this one i posted last on the UK forum, nearly a bike photo, it's part of a bike.

                                Here it is, it's all I got right now.
