Hey Dwight, which one in the picture is you?




Well Rich, with of course the above being a picture of the late great Gene Autry and his trusty horse Champion, the answer to your question is neither one of 'em.

(...ah BUT IF you might've been speaking metaphorically there, then in THAT case let's say if Gene and his horse where facing north when that old picture was taken, well then, SOME FOLKS might say I could often be described as the "south end" of Champion there, ol' buddy!!!)


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Boo yah!!! bike just arrived!! Fired her up, started with no problem. Felt great to be sitting on her!

Am going to be looking at getting the Bubs, new plugs and Unifilter on her ASAP. Pipes are blued, have to order stuff for pulling/plugging the air injector, an oil filter and battery tender. Might flush the brake system as well. Definitely need to put a pillion back on her. Gurdy, does that pillion fit a 2007 TBA?

Z, my schedule is a little hectic, but I look forward to getting you over here sometime so we can get the Scott Oiler & slipperblock finally on sometime this winter. I'll drop you an e-mail.

I s'pose I have to get her registered as well and pay some insurance too.

Who cares, I have another 2007 blue/white TBA!! Delivery guys were mighty impressed by her too, one of them rides a Honda. Now I'm itching to go for a ride.

And thanks to everyone for the kind words!!! Merry Christmas!!
