I have an 1988 sporty and love riding it, I beat the piss out of it every where I go. I went on a snot run this last november, it was in the 70's but I seen one of my buddies get in a bad wreck and he should of been dead. It really got me thinking, I might sell mine this summer.

it didnt make much sense to keep it. I only rode it 40 miles in 2012. Seems like everytime i took the bike out, i almost had a close call from someone else either pulling out in front of me or something else. There is to many idiots not paying attention on the road anymore. Plus there was something going on with the paint and crome on it. The crome was starting to get pit rust marks, and same with some of the painted areas. Even the foot pegs had rust marks on them. Dealer told me that the warrenty doesnt cover cosmetics. I still have one bike left. Its a 72 Honda 175 Scrambler. Someday, when we get to go to sturgis, i will get my dresser that i want.

Wise choice my friend, wise choice. Make some more cutbacks and by the end of the year you will have yer 20 percent for a "No Doc" and decent rate.

I got the 20 percent. The problem is NO BODY does NO DOC loans anymore. Everything is fany mae / fredy mac loans. I am working on finding a private investor. I already found one, but he wants paid back in a year, and also wants 11% interest.
 
I have no problem understanding people that enjoy riding a motorcycle. I guess it's the weirdos that try and make some kind of new found identity out of it for themselves that bother me. Just saying. Seems like a bunch of desperate losers in leather to me...

After spending half the day with the family, I started to work to fix a few issues with my grinder. I suspected that a keyway fell out on one of the drive wheels. To my surprise, the keyway sheared in half allowing the hub to rotate on the axle. I have never seen a keyway do that before. Got that all fixed up, adjusted the belts, greesed her up and changed / sharpened the two spare sets of teeth. Gotta work on the mini tomorrow. Gotta get the whole fleet back up and running for this up coming week. Its gonna be a pretty busy week.

My employee has asked about learning to climb, so I think I am gonna get him a harness and start to give him some lessons. Teaching him one thing at a time and when he masters that one then teach him another.
 
Stayed up late Thursday night doing paper work thinking I had Friday off. Nope got a call Friday morning to go do a small job that took all day. So today....I took a nap...for 8 hours....lol now I am wide awake.:mad:
 
Had to go out on a small emergency job to remove a dead pine off a phone wire, had to set up traffic control, why bother when they fly past at 90 mph and flip you off.

Buy him the tree climbers companion, he will learn alot. Give him some rope so he can practice some knots.
 
I was just watching a show about gumbo in New Orleans, it looked realy good. What is everyone having to eat for the big party? I think I might try to make some gumbo and a couple dips and of course some little smokies.
