A nice day for a Senior citizen get together.  A new guy showed up with a sweet Valkyrie, I showed him how to do the nickle trick, He had never heard of it, and we entertained the crowd after lunch.  Now it is Valkyrie related.  pictures below, see ya.  Hoser

Looks like a great time. Love those old bikes. And BBQ too. Kansas isn't to far from Colorado so might have to take a trip that way to join you if you'll have an old but not yet retired guy  crazy2

Hoser-looks like you folks ALWAYS have a good time when ya'll git together  cooldude Thanks fer takin us along! RIDE SAFE.

It's off subject, but the CBX apparently was a nasty beast to work on.  I admire anyone who does the upkeep on 3 of 'em.

Here's a video from Jay Leno's garage about his '81 CBX, which does have some wrenching in it

Saw a turbo charged CB X at a gun show in Lakeland Fl. two weeks ago. She looked impressive just sitting on the stand.
