I'll be there as well. I'm going to leave early friday on my 1970 CB 350 K and stay till monday. This should be one very slow trip riding the 350. Possibly the slowest in history.

Can't wait.

Nice looking bike. I've always thought that black worked well for the F bikes lines. Your bike is just further proof.

Very happy for you.

I fully agree with Sonic on this one. I have had great results with the plain ole rope type plugs. If they don't give you enough peace of mind you can also romove the tire and use a plug/patch that ...

Wow,

A Brittan and a V8 Guzzi (being sure to pronounce the z's in guzzi like one would pronounce the z's in pizza), great stuff, what a sight and sound. Sorry I missed it.

With the stock cv carbs you can use only the pull cable and not the push cable. I belive that Swiftnick is correct that the two cable set up was to meet DOT regs at the time.

Thanks for the tips and nice words. I'll work on posting larger pictures. I'm not so much of a digital/computer type, so these things take a little longer with me to get the hang of than with most o ...

I think I have figured out how to start posting pics here. Just a quick one from a ride my wife and I went on about a month ago. More to come.

Larry,

The stickers arrived yesterday.

Thank You!!!

The time and effort that you, and the others involved, have put into this, is truly appreciated.

PM sent.

YES on the red frame. Both bikes look great.

Gene,

Thanks for the tip about the APE discount. I plan to build up a 1100 motor possibly as soon as this winter and will certainly consider them as an option for pistons and boring. I also think ...

This stuff really does work wonders. At first I thought all the talk about Seafoam was a bunch of bs. Just another way to market snake oil. Than I used some on my BMW R1100s. This bike has a large ...

One please.

I spoke with Matt's old roommate from Reno (another Matt) this evening. He said that he had talked to Matt's girlfriend for about an hour. He didn't have an address for her when I saw him but said h ...

I just got off the phone with Matt's friend and former boss Steve from the late great Reno BMW where Matt used to be a mechanic some 20 some years ago. This was not a call I really wanted to make. S ...

Like many others here I am left absoulutly speechless with the news. I had spoken to Matt just last month and had also found him to be a great help. I will sadly pass the news on to others here in t ...

Tire plugs (and the tools to instally them) and some way to inflate the tire. If you choose to use co2 to air up the tire, carry a bunch of the little cans. You will likely use them all. I have fri ...

Those are very cool bikes. My sister in law has one and it is very fast as well as being one of the best sounding v twins I have ever heard with the pipe she has on it. The one big drawback to the f ...

They both look damn pretty me.

I'm in!! I'm somebody now.

Wow, you hit a moose on your F bike!!! Glad to hear that your still alive. Many years ago I hit a moose in Alaska while driving a Kenworth with two loaded 40 foot trailers behind me. Sure did tear ...

That's right, forgot to mention that Colin Edwards got second, making the weekend even better with not just one, but, two Americans on the podium.

Damn near brought tears to my eyes.

I'm sure that most of you know that Nicky Hayden won the first ever Moto GP race in the States on a Honda. Not only did he win on his home turf, this was his first Moto GP win ever. The race was gre ...

Chris,

That is a great looking bike. You did well and should be very happy. The pictures of your bike just confirm to me that full on black is one of the best colors for these bikes.

Enjoy you ...

This is a practice that has been taking place since the time there have been men riding motorcycles and buildings with large enough windows to look at them selves in while riding. At least 25 years t ...

I belive that the name Ludite comes from the man the Ludites followed. Ned Lud.

Mt Hamilton is a ride that words can't describe. Both sides of the mountain are a great challenging ride. I try to get to that part of the world and ride it at least once a year. I know that it wil ...

Firemun,
It is not a scam. Just like it was stated in the post after yours, these guys run your vin to see if the bike is stolen. If the vin comes up clear the guy in Vegas sends the paperwork to ...

I have a friend who has used this same service for a bike and a car and says it works great.

Melvis

Yes,

I would be very interested. It would come down to price (I'm more than willing to pay a fair price) and also the cost of shipping to the states.
