Can't argue with logic like that>[^]

Jon you need to get a handle on this impulsive behavior. Or else you too will be living in a van down by the river.

As a side note anybody in the group want to buy or trade some Penton parts for some cold catfish I caught down on the river yesterday.

A 4-bay garage attached to a Winnebago on blocks, riverfront, so as to fish on days I'm resting up from riding...sounds like my dream home. Now to just find that agreeable wife who can also wrench between motos.

I would settle for one that would occasionally pick up tools or at least could tell the difference between a ratchet and an extension... Mike

My wife can't wrench and doesn't like to fish, but I bring her to the races because she sure can cook!  Gary, Ric, Teddy, and all, if you tell her I made fun of her then you're "toast", pun intended ;)

Ron - The one you mention on Craigslist above doesn't come up from the link, but the guy selling this one had it in the Portland, OR section a couple of different times in the past 2 months.

If the one you mention above is different, would be curious what # it was and in what part of the country, condition, asking price. Thinking of setting up an e-registy for owners of 30th anniversary LE's...only 133 200 LE's and only 5 (count 'em, 5!) 125 LE's sold.

John,

if you set up the registry, I have one. It is in my shop and I don't remember what the # is, but it is documented and I have all of the extras that came with it.

I have #5 and would be interested in a registry.

If anyone is interested here is another for sale in the Boston area.

Ron Corporon

no it is not mine and I do not know the owner

Robbie

I figured I'd be nice, and show these pics off...

And this bike needs a friend real bad (like a 67-73 Six Days)







it's been pushed 1.2 miles, and never started/no fluids, sat in it's crate for 7 years.
