Yea I was thinking he forgot to add a 1.  $16,500

The new owner will when it's re-posted. lol

Recuperating from last nights birthday party. I'm hitting the big 60 on Tuesday.  

I haven't looked at the schedule but it would be cool to come out for a Raider / Niner game too. The stadium is pretty bad ass from what I hear. 

Looks better in person. My phone camera sucks.

well I went around shopping for a New sxs.. Just looking at this point but drove to 3 dealers all the same Dealer markup BS. The SAME 2021 XRS RR Max that I had a few friends buy back in Nov for 36k OTD is now 40k OTD.. I was like Thank you but NO. One dealer told me well we are only doing a 3500 dollar markup and NOT 6500 like other dealers. I understand that this covid BS has everything messed up but geez..So ended the day taking a walk through the neighborhood when it cooled off..

Give Florence Motorsports in Oregon a call. They are great to work with. The problem is there's no inventory and the demand is high. It's probably going to even get worse as the plant in Mexico caught on fire yesterday destroying a lot of cars. 

Congrats guys. Look forward to watching the transformation. 

Brandt Snedecker ....

Never met him but felt like I knew him through his posts on this site. RIP Dev and condolences to his family / friends.

Celebrating 17th anniversary with the wife. We're going to ride the Harley up Hwy 1 to Bodega Bay and escape the heat. Everyone have a good weekend.

Anybody from the Prescott area headed to Vegas or SoCal this weekend ?  Interested in buying a Fill-Rite fuel pump on MarketPlace but the shipping cost almost kills the deal. Let me know if we can make something happen.

Let’s Keats the stories 

Can I get a translation ??  😃

Post up some better pics when you have time. I'm interested.

My condolences to the family.

Is this my old car ? It had a 4e box when they got it from me. It's also a 3.2 Acura motor. Car was quick and fun to drive. I want to say it was around a 1997 or 1998 yr/model.

I might be interested in buying it back. Would like to see better pics. Looks to be missing the shroud around the radiator. 

Woo hoo, I have 4 rankings. 

Flew up to Boise and bought a Streetglide. Rode it home in time for a Fathers day ride tomorrow with friends. Happy Fathers day everyone.

Funny you mention reading a good book sausage, I’ve been wanting to get back into book reading again, but wondering what genre. 

I suggest anything by Richard Marcinko

Turn the claim into your insurance. It's a Comprehensive claim and that doesn't raise your rates. You can still file the claim even if you've already paid the stealership. 

I think this event has surpassed Dunefest in Oregon. I'm going up this year to check it out. We're also going back in August and stay at Coos Bay KOA. I think you will be disappointed if you bring the rail. Oregon is better suited to Atv's / SxS's

Sorry, but you just don't know me at all. I would have strapped a radio and a portable GPS to my kid's water carrier before I taught him to ride the bike. I also would have made it a rule he doesn't ride the bike out of a 50 yard radius away from me unless we're riding together. The child would also know that defying that rule would result in a very long restriction from riding the bike. I also won't knowingly let someone in camp ride out alone. I'm not being the camp Nazi, I'm saying if someone is starting to ride off somewhere, I'll offer to ride with them or ask them to wait until the group is going for a ride. If they insist, fine I'll let them go because they're adults, but a five-year-old kid is not an adult and that's why they have rules about proper ATV training and every child should be accompanied by an adult.

My concerns about safety even go so far as giving two complete brand new rugged radio helmet kits with 8 watt radios to a friend of mine's family for their quad riders and a complete two seat helmet kit with intercom and radio and antenna for their UTV. That whole setup probably cost about $1,800. Why did I spend that kind of money for someone else's family? Because I think safety is that important.

That's my viewpoint on safety. I'm not telling anyone else to agree with me. I truly believe in the saying "better safe than sorry."

I'm also the one who organized a rescue party for a couple who got left out in a bowl at 8pm with a broken sand rail. The people they were originally riding with came back to camp and left them in the dunes. I heard about it and gathered a different group to go out there and get them. We got back at 11:00 p.m. but at least they weren't out there overnight. Obviously some people don't think there's anything wrong with leaving someone out there in the dunes at night. I won't do that. Other people seem to think that parenting is partially a matter of luck. I guess I'm just a really lucky SOB then, because I raised two step kids and nothing bad ever happened to them. Or maybe it was because I instituted rules that helped keep them safe. Maybe we'll never know.

 

Anyway, you do you and I'll do me.

If you read the story, the family was going out together. They got distracted for a moment and the kid took off alone. They didn't knowingly let him go. So not sure you can judge them based on that.

Very long story but I need to run a car fax on my own car.  Need to fight a decrease value claim from a repair shop wrecking it during a test drive.  Anyone run one for me?

If I'm reading this right, you want to claim diminished value from your car having been damaged ?  IIRC you need to actually sell the car before you can claim/prove it's value was diminished from the accident. I can't help with a Car Fax but wish you the best of luck. 

Not sure what this guy was thinking ruining a 57 Chevy like that

Going to Pismo. Will be the first time there since all the closures and the Pandemic BS.

How about a list of things we used to own. I can't seem to keep anything. lol

Currently there's 3 Streetglides, A Can Am X3 and a Honda Talon. Still have a dirt bike that I never ride. All of them are " For Sale " in hopes are buying another 2 seat rail. 

I'm having good luck with FB Market place. Be sure to add a disclaimer to your Ad description like this. * I will not respond to messages asking if the bike is available * If the ad is up, the bike is available. 

Once you use Market Place you will understand. They have a few Pre set questions that customers can click on and send a message. Those are usually the spammers/scammers using them. Don't respond to them. 

I would use offer up next and then CL before Str8up only because I'm cheap and don't want to pay to advertise.
