me and my little girl. not on the road.

What a beautiful pic. You're a lucky man, look after that little girl. Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Is that an Ambo or an Eldo?  I used to have a '74 Eldo LAPD, never should've gotten rid of it!

Recently replaced my SV650 summer DD with an Italian woman - MV Agusta Brutale 910R. 140+hp/407lbs, should be a decent DD and track animal.





It'll get a few bolt-ons, nothing serious. Fender eliminator, integrated tail, small signals, damper, some trusted rubbers, etc.

That's a beautiful bike Dwight, even after Cliff hauls away my interstate I've got most of the parts for a 1976 roller, and a spare GL1200 (Made in the USA) engine, so one day, maybe.... ;D

Last weekend, when I briefly got out of my armchair... ;)










The R-NineT is fitted with a steering damper, so I didn't fall off the bike.

Is there anything prettier than those Norton exhaust pipes.  Great looking bike!

thanks for the Norton comments, the pipes on there are new, one of the old pipes weld broke while riding. I was forced to buy nice shinny new ones(darn ::))
Almost all parts for the bike are readily available,new original, made with the old tooling but with better material.
thanks, Mark

Finally got the BSA back on the road yesterday evening after it was down for a few weeks due to the battery not charging. Turns out it was just a matter of some loose connections. My dad and I ran around town and visited some relatives. After a cool spring it's nice to finally have some warm weather!

Out doing a plug chop of my little CL200. Awesome bike but still some issues. Well, one issue. I'll post a question in a few minutes, but isn't it pretty?
