Members I miss

[Tundra]

I was going thru my messages and found many members I was friends with or communicated with that are no longer here, some have past. The world is changing, this Nation is changing and this club is changing  

XRing, TheWoodman, MNBill, RMC51, Stuntman, Robocop, Sgt.Bunny, RJ, Kilroy, Nico, KingBee, TropicTraveler, Grumpy, MadMike, TrickRick, SilverFox, Ricoman, Sodbuster, SmokinJoe, KTDave, Slammer,  
Humshark, Hoser, Blackdog, BigAl, Dfragn, Wotan, ATL-Jerry, Pitbull, GearJammer, Stanley Steamer, BillyBoy, Anvil, LadyDraco, BossHossBill, JamesIII, SixGuns, HayHauler, BigPoppaPump, HotRod and the list goes on... I'm aware several have past, anyone here from any others out there?

[Oss]

I do not think any in the last paragraph are dead and I know that many of them lurk here but never post on the general board

This is precisely why I reach out  from time to time to call different people or send a PM.  IF I get a response to a PM I know they are alive

Wish I knew about Hoser, he sold the Valk and restored a vintage Wing years ago

[Alien]

I miss Solo1's stories.

BigAl went Harley and dissed and ditched anyone not in the cult.

Steamer is still around.

I miss Sarge from Indiana. He was a particularly salty old dog ( said with much respect) that I suspect is no longer with us. I don't believe he ever posted on the new version of the board so many may have never heard of him. He had a yellow and cream Valk and I'm pretty sure I met him at LaMonts house for a weekend get together many moons ago.


How many of you got to sample Lamonsters hospitality for that weekend in Tennessee for a meal, fireworks, and fellowship?

[Black Dog]

Still kickin', but only stop in for a lurk a few times a week.

Not much riding this past year (due to a lower back injury), but feeling better now! Not signed up yet, but hope to make InZane in June 

See ya there

I have and he has been at my old place as well. We still keep in touch, a real class act.

A lot of those folks are still around, but some are on FB more than here.

[Stanley Steamer]

I heard that old Boy from GA was hanging out with his Cousin Cletus!!!.......

Hey Doug

Still around and kicking, I still have my 2 1500 Valks.

I was glad to see you posting about your new to you; 1800 that you've got tricked out, as you do all your bikes.

Take care my friend

Bill

[Hooter]

Hey ALL, I am still here juts been away not riding the Valk the last few years. I picked up a 2016 Harley Davidson CVO Limited back in 2018 with 27 miles on her clock and now I have just crested 38,000 miles and basically gave up on my electrical issues on the Valkyrie. She still live sin my yard with my other bikes just no time and some physical issues keep me from resurrecting the Valk.
Rode with a Harley club for a few years became Sgt at Arms and had to walk away due to lies and corrupt leadership. Anyway in the process of starting a new club primarily HD bikes but I am open to allowing cruisers from any breed.


Keep your eyes open for a club named Twisted Alliance. Patches will be along in the next few months started with 41 people then spoiled knuckle heads caused to much drama and then we got down to about 9 people now rebuilding we are back up to about 20 and have 2-3 new members pending. now we are down.

Missed most all of you but between club stuff FBook stuff and family and work just haven't found the time to post here in a long while.

[Alien]

 I miss that Alien guy.  He was a lot of fun. 

[Valkorado]

I still have a link to his "My Honda is better than your Harley" video on my tablet homepage.

BigBF will be missed by all for sure.  I only had the pleasure to meet him for 5-6 days in front of my house during Covid once and was worried at first would be hard to communicate thru texting, but once he got to work was like he knew what to do with not much guidance at all.  He was very detail oriented taking all 100's of carb pieces apart and getting Valk in tip top running order with HUGE patience.  Only time I saw him getting flustered was redoing the wiring into the headlight assembly to get the turn signals to work again having larger hands to get into the bucket to route/connect wires again. 

He offered to do a quad horn since my horn did not work either, but declined figuring my cobra LOUD pipes were loud enough to make people HEAR me coming. 

[Jess from VA]

Big Bill was at my home twice for days each time.  He had his big trailer (plugged in to my house), but I gave him (and his dog) a room and a bed.  In the heat of summer, my central air was better than his.  I prepared (or ordered) our meals.

I still have a couple legal pads with our written conversations.

One thing I remember.  Watching him work, I was horrified to see him throw every, nut, bolt, screw, washer, spacer, small part and widget from all over the bike into one bucket.  I asked him about it and he laughed and wrote... Don't worry, I know where everything goes.  And he did.  If I did that, I'd never get things back together again.   

[LTD]

I remember Xtracho pretty well he had gotten that old 40s Indian and was fixing it up was pretty interesting.  But sadly while riding his Valkyrie I believe he suffered a heart attack ran  into a concrete piling on the highway and died.

[..]

Bill came to my house in Roswell for a few days and worked on my bike and a few others.

No communication problems whatsoever.

The he came to Clayton to work on my next Valkyrie and "set camp" in the WalMart parking lot as far as possible from the store.

Great guy and sorely missed.

[Valkorado]

Great guy and sorely missed.

That's for sure.  I could use his help right now.  Not only was Bill a very skilled Valkyrie whisperer, he was a kind, easygoing dude.

OK, I know this is an old thread but just wanted to let y'all know that I'm still above ground but no longer have the Valk. I was in an accident 2013 and ended up totaling my bike. I miss that bike and almost gave up riding but ended up getting another bike but not a Valkyrie. I pop in once in a while to see what's stirring.

[John Schmidt]

I'm also still kicking, just not as high. Doug, if you see this just know me and my recent bride have spent a few months in Florida the last couple winters, I'm now living in the Green Bay area. Rita passed nearly 8 years ago, I remarried four years later to a lady that put life back in mine. I still ride but now it's a trike...which is currently hibernating for the winter. I miss the old Florida bunch, if we come down again this year I'll try getting in touch.

[LadyDraco]

I'm still here and post up just mainly in 1 thread  @Tundra

Don aka  HighBinder  has  crossed  over It's  now  3yrs this  past Sept...
There are many members that have crossed over that I miss RJ, Wayne.

I read  his  post again and  I  believe  he  might mean  not posting here  anymore.
As folks all moved on to FB.. I don't think I'll ever be a FB member .
My time is more  limited now, Admin.  and Mod on 3 other sites..
And running a farm solo.
