BILLY! Good to hear from you, brother! And BTW - you ain't kiddin' me for a minute. I know what a soft spot you've got for that bike.

Serenity

I call mine Serenity. If you are a SciFi fan you know it as the ship from the show Firefly. She has pretty much lived up to the name. On every trip I make with my friends we take bets on how many times we have to stop for repair. But all the challenges, she has never left me completely stranded... Except that one time, but we had a trailer so not technically.

Zoë Washburne: [about Serenity, on first seeing her] You paid money for this, sir? On purpose?

[STEPPENWOLF]

You caught me Doug
It's my pal,my ride,,my companion out on the road in the pouring down rain my friend for life and confidant.My bike has never let me down in 35 years unlike gal pals.It is mad at me now since I have not ridden it in a couple years but a few short trips.
It want's to stretch it's legs...

I got caught at our Retired and Riding group sneaking around taking pictures now that I am walking.

I saw the movie Serenity - which I think is what the series was based on. Good choice.

Appearances can be deceiving, though. For some XS's Millennium Falcon might be a good name - the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy.

I'm gonna fix that for you pretty soon. I finished with my brother's bike and mine, and I got the front end of the jeep pretty much squared away. One more u-joint and some brakes, and I'm ready.

I don't blame the bike at all...a new knee was no problem.foot reattached with metal plates and screws slowed me down but a few other things happened so it took me awhile to be able to get on the seat.

No matter how or what I call the bike, it does not come to me or even answer. Am I missing something???

[Bikes]

That F6B does look pretty cool. I kinda like the old ones, too. With those opposed cylinders I'll bet they run real smooth. If it wasn't for their reputation for leaking oil, I'd be real interested.

[BA80]

Depends on how it's treating me at the time.......can't repeat most here.

You talking to your cat again?

I built a bike for my daughter to give as a wedding present. She wanted a graphic put on it that would entice her husband to ride it. He is a Harley guy (something he got from his dad). His favorite character is the Punisher so I built the bike and he rode it until he bought his dads Eclectic Glide (or something like that). The bike did not feel comfortable to my daughter so she gave it back to me. (I'm putting together an XJ1100 for her) to make a long story short I call it Punisher.

I love it! Did you do the paint job yourself?

Yes I did. I also did this one for a son-in-law who was in the Army.

If I was to have kept it I'd call it 'The Calvary' not sure what he is calling it. (I know not very creative )
