        I got lured away from the Hammer by a long time friend. A happy ,kind and shapely lady who can really cook. Very supportive of my motorcycle addiction. The roads up there also have lots of curves. Hoping to open a small shop up there as well.
        My bikes,tools, parts, fishing gear and golf clubs are going up there this weekend. I should be there full time by the end of April.
        There is room for guests as well.

          Been through there a number of times. When I travel across Canada used to turn there and go up to Cocrane and turn left on 17. Word of advice. When riding, keep your mouth closed. Black flies and mosquitos are rather plentiful.Kind of like traveling beside a corn field for 200 miles.

                • tinman was over today kicking my ass trying to get me to finish my 80sg build so I could do the XS north trip..

                  It's only been going on 3 years since I started on it

                  Anyway after 3 years of all my parts stacked up in the back of my shop, all I just gotta do now is remember how to get this ..




                  into this



                  and drivable again


                  I am back working on it again, so hopefully it will be ready to go is 3-4 weeks.

                  I will put a build thread up later on when I am getting near finished ..

                          Hi Bullet,
                          May 15 will be in time for XSEast as well.
                          Final assembly only takes a couple of days if you have some help and work around the clock
                          Hope to ride with you soon

                            The XS North banner is being printed this week. I'm working to have a unique XS North logo created for the shirts. Apparently the big red monkey butt logo wasn't to everyones liking. There's just no accounting for some peoples taste.
