Fuel pump is in, and the bike is running like a champ. Now I am changing the oil, and I need to get new tires. Then, it's off to the track to see what is going to break... I am sure that after sitting up for two years that there is something else wrong with the bike... but then, it is a Honda so I may be okay.

i'm sure the bike will be fine. the rider, i'm not so confident about.

and holy crap that red background for the smiley page is rough.

The rider could probably use a couple of new knees and some other odds and ends but he will be fine.

I have been celebrating by taking the wheels off so that I can get new tires tomorrow, and drowning the bike in simple green while I drown myself in Honey Moons.

Tomorrow I will get new tires for her, and get some black rattle cans and give her a new paint job. Then we are ready for the track. I want to try and catch a handful of track days and then try to jump in to racing out here.

Alright, for those keeping tabs the only left now is new tires and body work. I know justin can remember when the "to do" list for Michelle was pretty dang long. But now she's alive and ready to get rowdy.

She is alive, and kicking.

cool! i'm curious to see how you like the shorty pegs. i haven't touched my bike in about 8 months now and the battery is toast. it was the original from '01, so i was on borrowed time anyway. the weather here this week has been killing me!
