Title: Bought bike number 79 today... Post by WD on 09/03/05 at 21:47:48 Yes, that is correct. My 79th bike purchased in 18 years. I have a short attention span...NOT. I just like to modify them and get rid of them when I get bored. 1999 VN800A. Jet black, chrome, and polished aluminum. Actually comfortable aftemarket button tuck seat. Sissy bar. Color gradient (black to clear) Memphis Shades fork mounted windshield (quick change thankfully), full Cobra exhaust with full length heat shields. Chain driven. Yep, I'm going to bag this one, need a functional bike for a change, not a playtoy. All of 8K miles on the clock. Needs an L.O.F., and had to swap the clutch cable out to ride it home. Both of which cost me nothing, I bought it at my old shop. Need to swap the rear signals, one is broken off and I hate the stalk mounted (lobster eye) type. New helmet, rear signals, and another new one for the Savage ran me all of $96. Gotta love the employee discount. Especially since I'm apparently getting rehired there part time. No pain. Even with the too short too close together buckhorn bars it came with. Gee, new bars are all of $50... Got my settlement first installment. Happy truck, new to me bike, happy wife because I'll quit stealing her bike. I'll try to take/post some pics tomorrow. And, yes, I have already popped a wheelie on it... ::) ;D :o -WD |
