I am in the process of negotiating the use of a C5 to haul the beer I owe them all in to Talihena.
I would have loved to have been there. I am so ready to ride again. Maybe I might be able to take a bit of a scoot at the talimena rally. Lee and I are trailering down. I might not make the full route, but I will give it a try.Ich habe dich nicht gefragt.Comment

WoW Awesome work. You guys completely reassembled the ride in less time than it took me to get my carbs to quit leaking!!
It is defintiely a good feeling to know there are still folks around that will drop their stuff to go help a friend out like this. Sounds very nice to.
Enjoy Ivan, hope you get on her at Talimena and ride till you need another white wall.
Life is what happens while your planning everything else!
When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.

The bike looks better than it ever did when I had it, I am afraid to ride something that looks so nice....Originally posted by XJOK2PLAY View PostGuys,

But, they're meant to ride... right?
OK. That settles it!
Heal up, then mount up! LOL

Ok, I managed to keep it in while Russ and Lee were here, but when I made it inside the house, I did something very unmanly and my wife lent me the use of her shoulder for the moment.
It is sure nice to have her back home. She is more beautiful than ever before, I think its the friendship showing through. I was worried that there was enough of a transplant that she would not feel the same, but she does. She feels just like the same ol' stand by your side reliable ride.
I can't wait to run her down the road again.
Hopefully Russ will post up the pictures soon.Ich habe dich nicht gefragt.Comment

??? So.. you stood there and hung onto your wife for balance and pooped? Man, Ivan, that's gross!! Keep that stuff to yourself..I did something very unmanly and my wife lent me the use of her shoulder for the moment.
BUT.. did she burp you while you were there too? lol.. Man, I crack me up. It's good to have really good friends like you.. so we can point and laugh and amuse ourselves at your expense..
Glad you liked the bike. Just about everything is the same except that black thing all your stuff attaches to. I saw a bumpersticker on a car and was wanting to send it along with the bike, but couldn't find it in the store. It said, "If I shove that cell phone up your azz, will you drive any better?"
Heal up and maybe we'll get you in for a Eureka Springs trip this spring. The banjo guy misses you..

[QUOTE]when ivan is fully able to run not before/QUOTE]
Wow.. how far does he have to go? Down the drive? Down the street, or a 6 minute mile? Sorry Ivan, looks like you're going to have to get into better shape than before the crash before you get to ride again.. lol.
