       Ross-daprez-and I met in Litchfield Il. yesterday ant Niehause Cycle on old Rt 66. I had 10 Quarts of pure Arkansas raw honey he wanted and he had 6 Quarts of a wonderful Wisconsin wine I had forgotten when i left in Jan I had purchased in Green Bay when we visited John. Anywho the M/C dlr was worth the 250 miles I rolled to git there. And should anyone be interested they have as of yesterday 2 Valkyries on the floor for sale at fair prices. And all the staff we talked with were helpful and the ones I engaged in conversation were Riders. They have a separate buildings for new and used. I also KNOW the spill over area in the used building has as many or more stored as the have out on the main floor. Ross and Bonnie test drove a Honda Pioneer. When this chinee devils brew settles down I WILL make that git together they have in May. They have an 02 triked G W with a bit over 8 G on the clock that drew my interest along with a matching trailer.
      The Only thing I weren't happy bout was having to go thru the drive thru at the golden arches and eatin in the cage.  Undecided Already had spent a bit of time in that bucket seat and a chair at a table would have been more preferable. cursed chinee devils brew. Other than that little thingy good day overall.  cooldude RIDE SAFE.

That's cool,
I grew up near Burlington Iowa and there was a Niehaus Cycle there also. It was a combo Honda and Mercury dealership and I bought several bikes there. I am sure they are related somehow.

       Well we wuz mid state or lower third anywho. Semed as if some folks in the area be sensible. I could on the other hand Not be correct. And he-daprez-do Not reside in that sewer known as cook county which encompasses chi town. Far as taxes go That fer another thread in another time. Tryin with out success I might add to figure a way-nah cain't do it now and do not need nor desire a payment book.  Tongue STILL in my mind anywho a Very pleasant day. RIDE SAFE.

Bought my IS from Niehaus.  In 2012. It was a ‘99 with 8k on the clock. Had a HD riding buddy ride up with me and pick her up. No it didnt get trailered home coolsmiley my buddy said you gonna ride to
bama on that thing and I said hell yes. (And in the same day) Talked him into a two week trip that summer. Took him from Bama to California and spent three days there and back home in 13 days he still hasn’t forgiven me 2funny fact is he has only ridden with me once since and that was to Florida for a meet and meal with some of the Florida gang. Hell I had fun Cool
