Title: Here at last
Post by: proctorls on November 14, 2009, 04:29:50 PM

First post.  I tried getting in earlier this year, but ran into daunting password problems, so I gave up and went for a ride on my '84 LS.  Vermont in the summer is motorcycle heaven, so I spent a lot of my spare time astride my little airhead looking for the sign of the snake in the nearby Green Mountains.

Tomorrow, I have to go finish up a little patch job at my sister-in-law's place in Rutland.  This heavy rain is due to stop tonight, and it's supposed to get up into the fifties tomorrow, so I'll dribble some Stabil into the tank and head off up Rt. 3.
I could go on and on about this sweet little bike, and sweet little state, but I tend to run on, so I'll stop soon.
 I restored my LS over a year, and since then it's garnered a lot of compliments. Well, okay, not a lot, but a few from people who's opinion I respect.  I've got lots of pictures of the rebuild, and as soon as I figure how to put them up, I shall.
     As for Vermont, I suggest you come and see for yourselves.

Welcome, Steve. Lucky I found you down here in the Test Zone; it's a spot to try posting ideas before actually going public, so to speak.

Lots of members will be glad to meet you. Suggest you repost your intro in the General Announcements section and see what happens.

Hey, folks... new member here for the asylum. Clean up on aisle six :D

G'day Steve & welcome to the world of the mighty R65 [smiley=bmw_smiley.gif], mate as soon as you can post a pic of your LS so we can drool over your rebuild.

If you like set up a photobucket (or any other photo sharing site) & download your pics from your computer to your photobucket account & then post the link here to your site, i hope that made sense :-?...

Mate love hunting down the 'sign of the snake'

Hi and welcome. I must go to Vermont some day - both my sister and my father visited there in the late sixties and were full of praise.

greetings from a grey and precipitating north
