RIP Phil, and peace to h ...

I rode it today for the first time in a while, since I finally got my plate back from the Phillps Luxury Garage and Media Epicenter.

Well done, sir! It will never be "easy" again, but it's sure better than the alternative. I'm so happy to hear you're doing well, going home, and looking up.

I have an original 1985 Muffler, with some "character", and an original shock, both came with the bike when I bought it.

$50 for either + shipping, or make me an offer.

It's a Supertrapp exhaust.

The rubber chickens were the result of a joke on another forum, an English member finding them in a store as pet toys. The "cocks", he found, would honk when ...

Damn, that was a long day. Didn't realize that I'd been there 8 hours, but we did it - everything buttoned up, nothing broken, no parts leftover. Only had to back up twice to redo things in the wron ...

Big shout out to Drake, who upon hearing that I was in need of a replacement for my rear fairing (don't ask) offered one up immediately for a paltry sum.

My K100 brake problems were not in the hoses, or calipers - it was the master cylinder piston. Replacing it solved my grabbing brakes. The issue was vibration would let fluid blow by, slowly increas ...

Thanks.
