pulled into Home Depot to look at grills after a nice 80 mile ride. Someone pulls up in a truck and sez "nice bike, i've got one just like it at home." turns out he lives just a few miles up the road. he bought it, put it back together and rode it for awhile before having some starting issues. we exchanged numbers and i'll make sure to tell him about this wonderful site. he also wants to know where i bought the small quarter fairing. hopefully i can dig up that info. Today's been a good day!!
