Hey, Grunt... what part of Ol' Virginny is home to you? I'd guess somewhere near the mountains, considering your choice of bikes. That SV is supposed to be a hoot in the twisties!

You can always redo it if you don't like the result. Live and learn, it's just paint.

Good point, Ron. Thanks. Since I don't know what type of paint it is (all I know is that it's Duplicolor) I may just start over from scratch. Probably have a better outcome that way, but that's gonna be a winter ...

Ron,
I'm still amazed how well that looks! I'm thinking of spraying clear-coat on my KLR. I kinda like the color, I'd just like it to look a little deeper and have more shine. The PO didn't say but it looks like fairly fresh paint... I don't see any nicks or scratches. Do you think I need to prep it ...

cruicial spousal support. I'm very lucky in that regards, as mine has learned to tolerate my MBS, although she has mentioned that another outbreak of the disease could be disastrous to our relationship.

Very true. I'm also blessed in that regard, but I did get a lengthy lecture when I casually ...

I feel I must write in response to your post, as I may be suffering from the same affliction. I have ridden thousands of miles on my one motorcycle, and I've noticed the desperate sense of longing for the road - ANY road - is satiated only for a short time.

In your experience, might a second, or ...

Out of the Mouths of Babes...

A visiting minister during the offertory prayer: "Dear Lord," he began with arms extended and a rapturous look on his upturned face, "without You we are but dust..."

He would have continued, but at that moment one very obedient little girl (who was listening carefully for a change!) leaned over to ...
