Hi Dipper, welcome. It's good to meet you. What part of NC are you in?


Hi Jim ! We have actually talked here before. I am not new to this place. I have been around for awhile now..... maybe 10 years or more. Life interferes and I have had long stretches when I have not visited or posted. Forgotten passwords that we could not retrieve have lead to me looking like a new member. I have moved a couple of times over the last 5 years and although I keep notes with passwords etc. I seemed to have lost them. So, lots of good that did me.

Anyway, like I said you and I have spoken a time or two. I think the last time we talked I asked you if you knew or could recommend someone in NC that could do some painting for me on one of my bikes.

I am in Winston Salem.

Hope you are well!

I am REALLY going to try to make it. My Daughter is expecting her first child around that time so right now I can not make any firm plans.... have to see how things go.

I lived in Apex for 3 years and just moved back to Winston last fall.

I want to sort the TDR out some and can't wait to get it to Deals Gap! Hopefully I can make it in April.

All understandable. I hope things work out so you can be there.

Took 5 old truck batteries to Battery Mart for recycling and got this Moto Batt AGM for free for the RZ350 plus $21 cash!

I’m cheating I put the MKII badges on it. Now I will see how many guys notice it’s an 80 with the wrong badges .
Of course I kept all the original stuff
Put new carb boots and air box boots on runs much better the old ones were leaking a little at the connection to the head I sealed it with sealer much better now that there New !!

Put all the bikes in a nice neat row with space so they won’t fall over again.

Hey Joe,

looks good! if you take your flickr picture address and highlight it, then above the text you will see boxes and one is Img. If you hit that, then the pictures show up in the post.
