Anyone wanna help get this mess cleaned up. I got all the oil changes done and service work done flushing brake fluids, chain cleaning and lube and adjustment. Ive already been riding all of them even though they are a dirty mess. My nephew was in there grinding and belt sanding and didnt take the bikes out or cover them. I want to get them out and clean them up right but its just been rain rain rain. I washed the shadow and the nighthawk already this year and next day wound up riding home in the rain for 150 miles or so. The bright green thing has the last couple parts in the mail and i should have it on the road in a week. I just wanted to share my insanity with everyone. 2002 Shadow VLX deluxe ( first REAL bike bought new now almost 30k miles on her, 1991 Nighthawk 750 ( newest member of the family has 44k miles on her 1k of them are mine, 1987 CBR1000F (This was the bike that gave me the passion for bikes ( bought with 23k miles now nearing 40k miles, 1994 FZR600 ( this is a toy I had temp tags in her for 30 days put about 1200 miles on it then completely tore it apart and redid the body wheels ect... I have been working on this for 2 yrs and its finally a week from done) Of all the bikes I think I like the nighthawk best for most riding. Last year I drove the CBR to Florida and back and about 300 miles while i was there for a total around 2350 in a week. I took the shadow to Michigan two times. Both times in a DAY out and a DAY back and my back side has never recovered from that OE seat. I haven't been on here in a while due to being with a woman that wouldn't get of the computer now I am single again and am allowed a life again....... If you guys want ill get better pics of the bikes whenever weather lets me clean them right.

I got some garage space at my new house if you want to store them in Tucson--I'd gladly make sure they're ridden regularly.

Wow your bike shed looks as full as ours!
(Norton commando; Yamaha 650; Rocket III; Speed Triple).

Hope you get better weather soon. :sun:

P.S. Some of us girlies can do computers & relationships at the same time, so better luck next time. :wink:
