Post by: VT-XS on August 06, 2007, 06:07:57 PM: I have band practice on Wednesday night and can't make it, but I wanted to get Randy his helmet...for painting purposes. The practice is at my house and I live inner loop. If Randy or anyone else would like to drop by and pick up the helmet on the way to the greet. would be appreciated.

I like to look at the bright side...

Having one of your customers think I'm sexy is better than no one at all....and what she actually said to me was..."i'm so horny that I am even considering somebody like you"....
or something like that.

I felt so flattered. I'm still beaming from that day.

Post by: sherri on August 08, 2007, 11:58:26 PM: Followed Dave to his subdivision, the bike seem to do okay just looked a little wierd from behind with the missing saddle bag and lens cover. I think he will be sore tomorrow.

Got to play with some deer on the way home :D. There were 4 or 5 of them in a usual spot. They wanted to run side by side in the ditch. I switched lanes into the oncoming traffic lane because I knew it wouldn't be long before they were going to come into the road. Just about to pass them all and the lead one darted out. So I crossed back over behind it to the right lane and sped up and lost them.

Dave, following you home with the bag missing, it looked like you were leaning to left side. Played with raccoon family, 2 cats, & a dog. One of the cats only has 8 lives left ;D Great time, learned alot. Glad your ok Dave.

Hee hee!!

Keep us posted on your progress. Don't be like Kebs and drop off the board and not keep us posted on the progress on her bike. >:(

Post by: VT-XS on August 09, 2007, 09:06:11 AM: Glad you are all right Dave.

To Texas X Riders

This is the third mishap posted to this board in about a month or less.
...and then there's Kebs bike.

Fortunately nothing major in four wrecks.

If you don't wear a helmet or don't wear a good one, please reconsider.

And I'd disclaim here and say that I'm not being preachy...but I suppose that I am...to a good and practical end.

And hey! You too, could look like this. O0 lol

(http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n90/mlide/DSCN2080.jpg)

Allright, there's other ways to look but the helmet's a good idea.

Yea, so I guess the only difference will be that when I fix my leak it will stop leaking while the HD will start leaking someplace else. :o ::)

Doing fine Gabe.

silly you acting all surprised that honda does not stock anything... and by the way my harley so far has only leaked coolant... so I'm keeping my finguers crossed...

It took my bike sliding 40 or 50 feet down the road to leak rear end fluid. How far did your HD have to slide to leak its coolant? :o :o ::)
