It's good to be back mate.
All's well.
I've stopped ratting when I take a breath so that's a good thing  and I'm going from strength to strength at the moment.
I'm just starting my second week of rehab and these physios are really giving it to me, but it's all good. ;D

Cheers,
Brian

I had a quick chat with Brian a little while ago, he's confirmed that although it was "touch and go" as to whether he'd be allowed out of the hospital for the the day, he'll definitely be going to Phillip Island on Sunday.

For all the whining I hear about the public health system here in Victoria, I have to say that Brian is being very well looked after. The hospital is providing a Toyota HiAce bus especially modified for wheelchair access (hydraulic tailgate etc) that families can hire for day trips, so one of Brian's mates is going to drive him down to the Island on Sunday, or if his mate can't, I will. I think this will be a great thing for him to get out of the rehab ward for a day, and down to the Aussie mecca of classic motorcycle racing.

Mmmmnn, here I am daydreaming about Phillip Island, is that Castrol R I can smell? Or did the dog just fart? Fcuking dog! ;D

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

Next up: a set of aftermarket tappet covers. One has some damage to the hex, from a slipped wrench, and another has some marks on the inside, from a broken adjuster screw, following a 10,000+ RPM excursion. (popped out of gear WFO :o) These should polish up nicely, and would be a nice touch for a chopper or bobber!!!
Minimum bid is $10 (includes shipping in the US)
This auction ends Sunday, 2-4-12, at 9:00 PM AZ time.

Next item: a pair of side covers from an 81 CB650. Paint is fading a bit and one is missing a tab, but otherwise strong shape. Free shipping in the US. I guess just make some bids on it, I'll check back here on 2/5 and send it on out.

Heres some pictures:

Hi Max, it wasn't the dodgy motorcycle parts that gave you away......it was the dodgy STORY HOTEL that you run.....























































Hey all I just wanted to let everyone know that anyone from this forum traveling through Florida on I-10 will always have a couch and a beer if they want to crash at our place. I work on bikes and restore them in my spare time, so we have plenty of tools and supplies if you need an on the road repair, and a place to lay your head after a long day cross countrying. We are active couchsurfers and always enjoy meeting like-minded folk.

We live off exit 217, feel free to send an email Mr.MaxStorey@gmail.com if you would like to swing by.

-Max


Sam. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I passed by you a couple of years ago when I rode up from Tampa Bay to the AMA finals at Valdosta.
We took the coastal road instead of the interstate, some nice scenery.

That's why we race at Valdosta in November and March, gets me away from the English weather. ;D
I think this year will be in April though but it still has to be confirmed.
