HOWDY EVERYONE!

I know its been forever since I visited so first off sorry. lol
I had not ridden much in the last 2 years due to the incredible heat in TX, and *LIFE* in general, I have relocated to WA in the last year, and finally took took the 05 TRUMPET in for a carb rebuild a few weeks ago.

Good news! 11 yrs and not a single trip to a shop, and the valves are still in spec It still has a bit of a low speed hick-cup but not, and it was suggested new plug wires.

SO OFF TO NEW BONNEVILLE I WENT, Nology coils and hot wires, uni breather, Carbone Lorraine Sintered Metal Brake Pads for front and rear. Still looking for some good deals on disk that wont set me back terribly, even some slightly used ones better than mine

So I will try not to be a complete stranger now.

Welcome back. Don't worry, I have been laid off twice in the last 6 years, and because of this, I haven't been riding much, and frankly, haven't been around ba.com that much. It has been a very depressing and disheartening time. Welcome back!!!
