What a long strange trip this one was. A couple key points of interest. -Got the chance to stop by the OCC store. Give the boys credit the bikes are beautiful in person. -Black and Grey; the hangers(for leathers)are awesome. Now have one for each set of leathers. -Street and Comp; Went Vanson shopping and found a to good a deal to pass on. A new Velociraptor(jacket) is in the closet. -Crossroads; What can you say...Got a tour of the shop and picked up some new stuff for the bike. -Home for Xmas(Minnesota) and home for the new year(Arkansas). With a stop-over in Detroit. Looks like I have some catching up to do. Three months worth that is.... |

Bluz, Was a whirlwind tour. Had not been home on a good note in 5 years. My mother kept me pretty well occupied. Looking at being back up in late may / early june again. Dragging the bike up and possibly dragging a second back with me. I know where a loaded XB9 is sitting and going pretty cheap. |

Hmmmm Where to start. rain, rain and more rain! Along with a dead battery. Adding a few cosmetic thingies to it though. I should have never stopped at Crossroads while I was home. Marc was way to kind to me. Thought about ya as I blew through Chi-town on xmas eve. Any other time I would have stopped. I was on a mission to be home for xmas day. Detroit to Hastings in record time for me. Where is all the snow up there? Whats with the toll increases? |

foot and a half is all, brother -- in spite of the news folks making sound like bodies were piling up left right and center -- tollway folks decided to fund big expansion (which I am not entirely sure I believe in) on the back of folks that don't have the little electronic billing devices -- quite a stir, locally, but it's Illinois politiks at it's finest -- guess I just didn't vote often enough! didthe Air Cleaner ever make it's way to ya?? |

Will do. I tell you though. Those XB heads make a big difference. Performance and maintenance. Should I ever need to remove the rear rocker box cover....I will have to rotate the engine down. |

Chop and Blake, I moved the posts out of the public parts of the board. This is a personal issue and ought to be handled privately via email, or other private channel. Please take it offline, don't make me ban Blake from badweb and I did not consult Blake first, I did what I thought was right and what I would have done for *any* other poster regardless of role here at the site. Blake, being directly involved was not in a position to do what any of the custodians would normally do. Chop, your last post was not deleted, it is in a place where Blake will see it. Not complaining or judging anybody, just taking a clearly personal discussion to a personal forum. Move along folks, nothing to see here... (Message edited by reepicheep on January 10, 2005) |

You'd be unable to access the page link or no. You are also in no position to make any demands here, especially after slandering and maligning me publicly, twice on Sacborg and now here on BadWeB. |

Always a bummer to see two people I really like, arguing. Confident they'll work it out. Hope so. Blake and Chop, two of the finest. |

It is a serious bummer Paul. A completely out of the blue broadside. Totally uncool. Kick his for me would you? |

Can't Blake, I'd fall on my trying to kick that high. He's a good natured Chop though, and I'll just bet you guys can be friends again. Damn rain. |

Stupid, hey Paul? You know if these two were having their conversation in a pub, this wouldn't have happened. That's the downside to these internet forums.... |
