no extended marathons of busting knuckles and pulling hair(wait, I don't have any hair). My wife wife and daughter both work schedules that are always changing, so more often than not I'm home alone anyway, except for the 6 dogs and 5 birds.

I think that spending time on his bike will probably be a great way to start to come to grips with your pain.

I hate to hear that about your son, but it sounds like you've got the right attitude.

Slow & steady gets it done. Just keep laboring along and one day you'll look up and there will be a complete running motorcycle.

Found the tach I was looking for on Ebay. Cost me 25.00US, and looks to be in great shape. I only tell you because you said you might have one laying around. No need to continue looking for it

Hi Butch,

Welcome to KZRider. I am so sorry for your loss, call me, you got my number.

I'll help you if you want to let me, as I live nearby.

And then someday this summer we Okies must get a KZ gathering together, maybe a run to Mt. Scott and a Meer's burger?
