TAAAHMEEEE!  ;D glad yer back bro - got any cool scabs???

what "armor" did you have on?
cjb...

Full race leathers. These have re-enforced everything. Same stuff the super bike riders wear. So no on the scabs. As a matter of fact I never touched the pavement. I just slid out of the corner and when I touched the gravel the bike was gone and I was sliding the other way in the muddy slope until I whapped a few saplings.

G'Day Tom, welcome back! And all that stuff about me and Helen getting together if you didn't pull through, that was just a joke mate, Ok? Ok? He he he, er, he he......................... (nervous, guilty laughter)  ;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?"

Terry's prices are ALWAYS good, as well as yours Raul. Heres some pic of the tank I just finished. This is from a 1980 KZ 440b1. But after having it sit a CB 500 I have while I was working on it I have some sick interracial bike thing in mind.  ;D

It's damn nice, not perfect - but nice. But this is my first run at scallops. This tank will end up on a bike that I am selling on ebay. I will have the bugger listed in the next two days. Next is to pull the yucky stock bars and put on a set of drags and pull and smash to hell the big fairing that is on it. I think it is very old school with the traditional shapes and flat colors.

I think it is funny when people put huge fairings on a little bike. Nothing like a huge GoldWing Fairing on a little 440  ??? ::) ;D

             Tom,

                     I only came across this just now. Glad you're going to be okay, hard to keep a good
         biker down, huh?  We don't want you to get all bummed up there. You and your family take
         care and thank God you're okay.
 
                                                     Later on, Bill ;)
