Hi OldFart!

It's active, just a little slow but I'm sure in time it'll pick up!  Also, in many parts of the world winter has set in and riding isn't on as many people's mind at the moment.  Something to consider, I suppose. 

Cheers!

Hmm, i'll have to dig up some stuff to chat about.

Get anything good for Christmas?

I got a nice mechanics tool chest.  Pretty stoked about that.  Time to organize the tools!

Post up a photo!

I need a new toolbox myself... I have 5 of 'em in the garage, and really need one big huge one to hold everything and sell off the rest!

My father and father-in-law are going to help fix up my garage for Christmas.  The work begins Jan 11, and I'm excited.

Too busy with the holidays and riding to do much posting.  Also, am in the middle of getting a new roof.  Wednesday got shot after my chair broke and dumped my butt in the floor.  New chair buying and assembly and grocery shopping pretty much killed the day.  The weather tomorrow should be favorable for a planned 200 mile ride to meet up with the Charleston group for lunch.

If I can get my wife to stop dragging me to stores I hope to get the tool box together today.  Can't wait to get everything in one place.  Will take apic.  Nothing special, just a craftsman with two stackable levels.  Much better than Tupperware totes

Post up some pics of the garage work.  Would love some ideas.

GeezerbibA, glad your riding.  I am happy to get a day warm enough to run the bikes.  Have fun.

Post up some pics of the garage work.  Would love some ideas.

Please ignore the MRP sign.  The garage is almost always packed with scooters anymore.  My scooters are the People 50, ZX 50, and the Super 9 is disassembled and hanging from the rafters.  The rest are bikes that I'm working on for people.  I'm (believe it or not) running the whole show on 2 extension cords!



Even when the scooters are pushed out, it's still too cluttered.  The garage plans are to close in the carport (12x20, same size as the garage) and add a door between the garage and closed-in carport.  Also, we're going to update the electricity!  I'm very excited about the whole thing, as you can imagine.  I'll post up some pictures in a separate thread when we start work.  Work is supposed to start on the 11th of this month, but I'm going to the IMS Show this upcoming weekend in Washington D.C..

Anyone else going to IMS?  They're going to have the scooter pavilion this year!  This will be my first time going.

Nice garage man!  Drool.

I'm going to IMS Show Chicago in February.  Last stop I think.

Glad your back online OldGuy!

Now thats more like it ! At least some noise out there....
I just bought a 2008 Kymco S200, 700 miles, from Craigs List. Whoopee ! I kept monitoring the STL list for 5 months, several times a day and it paid off. Saved over the dealer price which was my last option.
So I know I will be asking lots of ? on routine mx and such. I'm not much of a wrecher tho. OldFart

I'm here and lurking but don't post much.  I did just recently install driving lights in my Bet and Win 250's lower turn signal pods.  Looks awesome!  I'll post some pics and a tutorial as soon as I upload all the pics.
