The rest of the tour will be what it turns into, but I'll be ending up in Boston for a tea party     more like beer party and will be handing my bike over to the head master Mike Rieck for a make over     


Who is Mike Rieck? Is he some master CB restorer? Sorry if that seems a naive question as I am still lerning.

It's an old one but he is the man ::)

I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

He's the dad down the street who, out of kind heartedness, fixes my s^&* after I've f%^&*@ it up.
If he curses me out about it later, he's laughing when he does so( I hope!)

I try to keep a low profile but my face has been on the site. ;) Juha Leino has seen my face times before and Sam grew sick of it after spending a total of 6 weeks or so at my house. Anybody in my family could find Sam in a crowd. The fella's on this board are too kind in there compliments.

You're a champion of champions in my books Mike and I'm certain that there are many others that will agree.

If I was you
I'd be worried about me.

I was a little anebriated when I started it ::) got to have a little fun in the quiet winter months :D
Anyway Juha Mike is performance and racing orientated, just look at the front wheel in your avatar and tell me he had nothing to do with that. ;D ;D ;D ;D

Some say that when he takes a pee, he ejaculates at the same time, it's said the resulting substance has fantastic viscosity properties and is better than Castrol R30 racing oil.

It's also been said that when he is working his magic on our heads, he has the super human Spiderman
standing guard in the workshop to guard his porting secrets,.....if anyone can confirm this, please post a piccy as I thought Spiderman was just fiction. ???
