I've been here before. :)

Put some pics up in the gallery of the complete R65RS project. I really need to take some better pics.

Hi there Joan! We met in person at Billings didn't we?? And I remember very well you were one of the few ladies on the forum a few years back. Wasn't it pics of your catastrophic valve failure that was mentioned and posted quite a few times? So what bikes are in the stable now?

Hay Sue! Long time! Didn't make it to Billings this year... was on my way with a couple buddies but took in the Beartooth, Lolo Pass, and Yellowstone instead. AWESOME ride for the first time in like seven years!

Yes, there should still be pics of that valve grenade around the intertubes. During an Airhead Tech Day some years ago we swapped out the mashed motor for a good used one. Also, sold off the rest of the stable years ago but kept Blueberry.  :-*
