Welcome!
I got a chuckle out of your self description. Other than me not being a vinmoto member and living in Luck instead of Burlington, we are pretty much the same. Now I can tell the wife I'm not the only one in Wisconsin with my shop at home and a SOHC junkyard out back!  ;D
There are old bikers and there are bold bikers but there are very few old, bold bikers.

Quote from: Gordon
Not doing what you can to make your bike ride-able during the best riding months of the year kind of defeats the purpose of owning it in the first place.

   Thanks everyone for the warm welcome;
Bobby, I didn't know you hung out here?  I should have figured!
I saw your post on Mil'Vin'Moto for the 750 stuff, would you happen to have a good set of forks, brake caliper & disc ?

Welcome by the way. ;D

   Hey hahnda, I see your in Cameron, WI !   you should get out to Mil'Town for ROCKERBOX !

   Nice offer for 71 Norton production racer AKA; "The gray Ghost" but I sold that last year to a VERY generous buyer from Mi. besides, I'm actually considering selling the Spitfire we have now.

   BobbyR, Thanks for the NY welcome, What is the "Babe Thread" ?  Sorry if that's a dumb question, I'm still new to this list.
