  • Phil glad you are feeling a bit better, I came home once with bruised ribs and it's no fun. I couldn't breathe without pain...Dr told me that breaking a rib is less painfull....but breaking 3 or 4 can't be.

        Hi Cobia,
        The rear crash bar is the one that bent. I think it can be straightened. The bracket for the bag will need to be straightened too.
        Thanks for the offer.

            • On Tuesday (after the Rally) Bruce and I made it to Deal's Gap and got some early morning runs with NO traffic . I forgot all about it until the other day and I figured I would check out the photos since I didn't have any of me on the Kawasaki. They came out nice.....

                    Phil,

                    Broken mirror on Addie's RH side is now, 11/14/10, replaced. I had one that matched (J C Whitney replacement for yamaha). Jeff put it on & says loooks good, same kind etc. just right.

                    Can you get strong & well in time to ride to Key West, FL the first weekend in February? As you know, No mountains, but tropical warm weather in feb!

                      Hi Brent,
                      Thank you so much. That is good news. I would say i am fixed though i still get the occasional twinge.
                      Key West or atleast Florida is on my list but will have to see closer to the time.

                          Hi Ted,
                          The Keys keep getting mentioned in various threads.
                          Probably should get Brent our fearless leader to start a seperate thread.

                              • Hey Gary,
                                The sun was shining just right in that first pic, it cut through the glare of the helmet visor and you can see your face on the pic. Nice angle.
                                Scary....LOL!!!
