Hey Mashermoto,

I uploaded a picture of the bike to the website today. I always meant to but finally got around to it.

Check it out:

Another try...

Oh NOOOOOOO... It's Godzirra!!!

When posting pics, try to keep them to a max of about 600x 400 . Otherwise people have to scroll and actually move their mouse a bit more... which irritates grumpy people like Prometheus. Of course.... EVERYTHING makes him grumpy, so don't sweat it too much.

Thanks, trbig. My bad. Lesson learned. Please forgive me, Prom.

Now that's a clean looking Special!

Of course, when you put up a nice high-res image like this, you're inviting comments about that brown plug cap on #1, and questions about what happened to that shrub...

And to exactly WHO has been playing hopscotch?!?

Wow, you guys are observant! You really study a picture. I finally found a group of guys that are like me!

1.I've replaced the caps with new NGK- they all match now.
2. The drought of 2007 got the Azealea.
3. I have a little girl named Grace that loves to play hopscotch.
4. I'll paint the garage door this summer. I've already got the new gasket for the bottom. Yeah, I know you didn't mention this one - it's a pre-emptive strike.
5. The cracked driveway slab is slated for replacement also.
6. And if you look REALLY close, you'll see that there is a bolt missing from the ignition cover. A previous owner (or over-zealous mechanic) busted it off in the hole. I have since drilled it out and replaced it.

This picture was taken last fall shortly after I got the bike. I've done a lot of work over the winter but was still able to ride at least once a week.

Sorry Pastor...didn't mean to put you through so much trouble

OK...OK...I'm fibbing...I enjoyed putting you through the trouble

That really is a nice looking bike...even with the tacky house repairs needed in the back ground

I'll be back soon to post some pictures of the second gear grinding. You guys know how it goes...taking motorcycle drivers test (passed )...Mothers Day weekend...daughters 8th birthday this weekend...and the list goes on, but the bike has to take second fiddle when it comes to family

Hey Mashermoto, don't worry about me - I can take it.
Keep me posted how the second gear grinding is going.
Hope you get her zipping around soon.
I agree that family comes before the bike.
I like to work after they all go to bed!
Congrats on passing the cycle driving test!
I remember how proud I felt when I passed...

Ride safe,

Tim
