Hi Alan.

aboard Yendor!

Wow! That's one cool bike. Can't wait to see the resurrection.

Hiya Chippy. to the YOC!

LOL. Well I figured it wasn't a bundle of twigs or you'd have said faggot. j/k

Hi Careless. to the club.

to the YOC!

Love these guys. Girl directions has to be my all time favorite... I think they wrote it for my sister.

aboard the YOC!

Hi d2eeb. I'm afraid I've no advice regarding the diagnostics of your bike, but usually it's a good idea to start out here by introducing yourself. You might get more of a response after letting the folks know a little about you and your bike. I'm sure the guys here can help you get it sorted.

Was probably an issue of health and safety to get out and move this branch...

Hi Rossco (p coltrain). to the YOC!

Ya man... it's cold! We're more West than Midwest, but still plenty of tribal history (four federally recognized tribes in the state).http://www.native-languages.org/idaho.htm

Reloading is legal here so I think folks can do the rock salt loads legally. Used to be some old timers up around my hometown who'd shoot trespassers with them (so the rumors went). http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot33.htm

Hi Mikey. to the YOC!

aboard!

A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in their bed.
 She puts on her robe and goes down stairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front him. He appears deep in thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of coffee.
"What's the matter, dear?" she whispers as she steps into the room. "Why are you down here at this time of night?"
 The husband looks up, "Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 17?" he asks solemnly. The wife is touched thinking her
husband is so caring and sensitive. "Yes, I do," she replies.
 The husband pauses. The words are not coming easily. "Do you remember when you father caught us in the back seat of my car?"
 "Yes, I remember," says the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him. The husband continues..."Do you remember when he shoved a shotgun in my face and said, "Either you marry my daughter, or I will send you to jail for 20 years".
 "I remember that too", she replies softly.
 He wipes another tear from his cheek and says... "I would have gotten out today!"

Hi Brig. aboard the YOC! At least you know she wants to enjoy the bike with you!

Hi Steve. aboard!

to the YOC! Can't wait to see pics of your xs850... absolutely love the cafe racers. I bought a spoke set from a guy based out of Calgary (http://www.myoldyamaha.com/). He was a great guy to deal with, but I haven't got a clue about any brokerage fees.

aboard Nicholai. Afraid I can't help with the kangarooing issue, although I did see something on the forum about bad right hand crank seals causing that. But I'm pretty sure that was on a two-stroke so I don't know if that's any help when it comes to four strokes. Good luck... I'm sure someone with more experience will be able to help.

Currently -16°C here. Mike and I ventured about five miles outside of town to have a hike and picnic at cherry springs nature area. Plenty of snow around here in the last week, and with these temperatures it'll stick around.

A woman arrived at a party and, while scanning the guests, spotted an attractive man standing alone. She approached him, smiled and said "Hello. My name is Carmen." "That's a beautiful name" he replied. "Is it a family name?" "No," she replied. "As a matter of fact I gave it to myself. It represents the things that i enjoy most - cars and men. Therefore, I chose Carmen." "What's your name?" she asked. "B.J. Titsengolf" he replied.
