I can go totally INZANE.
Man, time is dragging by. I am still sitting over here in the ebolalands of Africa, tapping my fingers and waiting for a little less than 2 weeks before the bird that takes me back across the big pond arrives. Man, the wait is killing me!
I have an Austone Rear tire and an Avon front skin waiting for me. Timing belts, new O-rings for the star drive in the rear and two 13" shocks (Progressive 412's) waiting for me as well! My shocks are 10 years old (changed the bushings about 6 years ago) and I got them from Warlock - we think they were either 12" or 12 1/2", so with the Austone, I went ahead and got a new pair of 13" 412's.
Going to be like Christmas when I get home! Oh yeah, got 6 new plugs (I don't even remember when I changed mine last) and a trunk rack since I am thinking about putting the trunk back on (been soloed for years and years) so that I can start taking my Grandson with me on some trips soon - maybe in August. He is now 14 and it has been tooooo long since he has been on the bike with me and has now grown into almost a man.....I cant wait any longer. Oh wait, have a set of truck stacks to throw on as well.......whoooo-hooooo!
Get her jacked up and changed the shoes on her and timing belt (or at least try) and new sparks and, dig it, it will be time to roll west!!!!!
So sit over here now, just tapping my fingers and reading the board. 13 more days until I get back across the pond and only 25 days until I get into Spearfish.....
(as I clear my throat).....hack....hack........WHOOOO-HOOOOO! CAN'T WAIT, CAN'T WAIT, CAN'T WAIT!!!!!
(A poster I use to have on my wall when I was my Grandson's age.......How time flies........)
Smokin'Joe - when are you rolling in?????
