Good Morning Pete!!! Glad your back online. Those are some expensive mods, but I hear Ti is the 5hit! Don't get spoiled on the pampering and the pills, but love it while it lasts! (Message edited by stealthxb on October 08, 2004) |

Don't enjoy those anal probes too much....Its not prison ya know. I hope your kiddin' about the hose clamps. On a medical bill note, we can fit you with a back brace if they Rx you another which they probably will sooner or later. The mark up is about 250% above cost, usually. We will do it for cost so It doesn't cost you as much. The actual cost is very little. |

Keep a smile and know that this too shall pass and welcome to the 6 Million Dollar Man Club And just think, you don't have 3grams of $20K worth of Platinum coils in your head just behind your eye |

Nope...My buddy just bought an 05' Duc ST4 and we were thinking about hooking up and going to the Cycle gear grand opening on S.Cobb drive Sat. He is not very reliable though. Would you like to do that? I think it starts at 11:00. We could do an Urban Assault. |

I'm hoping it'll rain Saturday and no one will show up at SMHD for the event that is no longer. Charlie Broome at the dealership asked if any of us were going to be at the dealership tomorrow to 'talk' to any of the sportbike guys that show up. I told him I doubted that very much. I'm hoping that SMHD puts some kind of banner outside that said 'Sportbike Appreciation Day Postponed' |

Would you like to do that? Sure, just have to make sure I'm not forgetting anything I'm supposed to do. My memory ought to be home soon, and I'll know for sure. |

OK guys I have to let you all know that Todd- S2pengy has been keeping a secret. He didn't give me permission to share but it's something I think we all would want to know. He hasn't made it to the Tex recently due to an injury, not a motorcycle accident but an injury just the same. Here is what I FINALLY got out of him regarding his injuries and what happened. I'm sure he kept it under raps because of all the other issues with injuries but Todd you're important too and we want to be able to send you good vibes as well!!! Rebecca Back at home today... Tried to break my back in two and also managed to impail myself...Tripped and fell over a chair backwards hitting the metal frame of the legs between two vertbra, then bouncing and landing on a 1/4 inch u shaped metal pin which hit in both sides of my back.... Had x rays nothing broken but had/have a very large bump from tendins swelling and lots of black, blue, orange, yellow brusing all the way around my sides.. Very very sore and stiff but hate to take the pain killers my Doctor gave me ... Happened the weekend before the Blue Ridge Ride. Nothing compared to what the others have gone through but enough to slow me down big time... Bumps in a car hurt like hell can't imagine a bike ride yet but hoping for Thursday ..

I talked to Chris at the dealership and I am going to meet him at the dealership tomorrow morning at 8:30am to see what we can do about putting up signs and maybe a banner of some sort to let people know that our event has been postponed. We have to find a banner or something to use as one anyone have anything we can use??? Or any ideas??? |

Dam Spengy, and I thought hitting myself in the head witha ballpien hammer at work on Wed. hurt. Glad you live to tell about that one.. After you heal I think your story will start something like, "you see this mark here? That was when I..............." I'll send the fast healing mojo your way as well. |

Shred Did the insurance co. offer any deal on you keeping the old one for parting out/spares???? Track bike??? Any thought on a used bike for the new one, .. A guy at work picked up a XB9 in Ohio with 5,000 miles for $5,000... He got it off ebay.... |
