Greetings G-man,
What are you doing reading that stack of toilet paper anyway? ;)
Hope all is well back there in Humidston, as Patman calls it. I'm waking up to 45 degree mornings and have 85 degree afternoons. Had to dig out a buffalo plaid shirt that has been in storage for 2 years to stay warm!
As this is the euro bike forum, man y'all have got to make it up to Mid Ohio for Vintage Days next year. More bikes than you can believe are available. This year was definately a buyer's market with the economic slowdown. I almost bought a '77 Can Am 125 Qualifier, complete with the working lights and leather tool pouch on the rear fender. A great ISDT Reunion bike. That was what I was eyeing it for anyway. It had 475 miles on the clock and the asking price was $875. $700 would have probably done it. The owner was gone and I waited and waited for him. Went for a little wander and ended up with a '81 Montesa 349, aka "the white wonder", with 239 miles on it! All original, everything works including the horn and brake light. The bike has never been offroad, just cruised around in the grass in some guy's yard. Still has the tits on the tires. Unfortunately I did not have room for it and the Can Am in the van.
Oh well, time to load the XR up and take a little ride up at Rampart Range. Later DRNers,
