Bike build withdrawls

Huh I thought each mis matched number was worth about $1000 off bargaining price. None the less riders like 1up/3dn know they'll never get what they put in unless it by life and times using it up before some one else gets it at discount.

No way Nigeldtr, you'll blow it up on the autobahn! Besides, I wouldn't want to deprive you of all the satisfaction and loss of income to restore that fine project bike
Hope to see it all shiny next summer!

Having just rebuilt the engine, gearbox, front end and re-wired my 850 I really don 't mind being deprived of the, "pleasure" or negative bank balance :wink:

PS love the colour

I respect a man that puts function before form.
I had this priority list on my tank to remind me of the order of importance. As you can see, my priorities changed slightly during the process :wink:

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

A pretty woman makes her husband look small
And very often causes his downfall
As soon as he married her and then she starts
To do the things that will break his heart

But if you make an ugly woman your wife
A-you'll be happy for the rest of your life
An ug-a-ly woman cooks meals on time
And she'll always give you peace of mind

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

[Sax solo]

Don't let your friends say you have no taste
Go ahead and marry anyway
Though her face is ugly, her eyes don't match
Take it from me, she's a better catch

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

[Spoken:]
Say man!
Hey baby!
I saw your wife the other day!
Yeah?
Yeah, an' she's ug-leeee!
Yeah, she's ugly, but she sure can cook, baby!
Yeah, alright!

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
Never make a pretty woman your wife
So for my personal point of view
Get an ugly girl to marry you

You have created a thing of beauty. Do you realize that there are people who live their whole lives and never have that sense of achievement ?

It is a great reality check. I got that way when I 'finished' mine. It certainly does not have the spit an polish of yours but I am happy with it. Since finishing it, I have gotten a Kawasaki 400 and got that going again. Just sold it. And I picked up a 1981 step through type moped because I had one as a kid. It was a blast getting that running after a long time out of commission. I ride my grandson around the neighborhood on it. My point is get something, anything. Make it whole again. It may not be a collectible or show bike but there is always satisfaction when it is smoking up the driveway after that first start.

I have three days in a row off next wknd and my shop is finally organized for my bike to move in. Hopefully I'll get some work done...

I see many nice bits there. She's going to be sweet. Think you'll have it on the road for the INOA rally in your state this July? Looks like you are getting close. Of course you'll have to spend some precious time cleaning the oil stains off your living room floor. My wife would never let me do that in the house. Yes, I am pussy whipped.

I really hope to be done. If not I might show up with my lift, tools and a bunch of Oregon beer.... No wife, so no worries!

Oregon beer. MMMMMMMMMM. So many microbreweries so little time.

After moving to NZ from Seattle 10 yrs ago, I missed Mirror Pond and so many good NW IPAs. Finally, NZ micro-scene is starting to embrace the hoppiness I so love after many years in Golden Ale exile.
