Geomon,

The choices are nice, I just wish I had the time to take advantage of it. :sad: Too much to do at work lately, as well as trying to relocate, retire and get set up to be back on the road running come JAN 08.

So much going on lately, I do not know if I am coming or going. :? The dust should settle soon enough though, and get back to just one job! Then let the fun begin!

If I could just figure out a way to pull the boat with the bike, then life would be really good! :wink:

Thank you for the kind words.

Are you a driver now and going for your own authority? I remember you saying in other posts that you have owned trucks in the past and are looking for a new one.

Good luck with all that and sorting out all the govt regulatory issues....I'm sure the pain and aggravation is just short of sticking pins in your arms :P

ps: I tried to resize my pic so we don't have to scroll. It didn't take. I'll try again later.

Cheers

Geomon,

At the moment I find myself once again the property of Uncle Sam (U.S. Army) I was called back to Acive Duty. I will retire JAN.

I don't want to hijack this thread, so I will tell that story in a different one.

I will go back as lease operator. Too old, broken and tired now to deal with running my own authority.

I'd take an old Indian or Triumph, or Norton over a Harley any day
Nice ride man.

However, It won't likely make a 2000 mile ride flawlessly or comfortably anytime soon. But a very nice ride.

Besides don't knock any "even partially American made purchases. All of those Jap made items funded their purchase of our country or a good portion of it. Just a note: Poser... lol no, been riding a Harley for 30 years.
