I'm Not Quite Dead Yet...

[TXRider60]

My yellow R65 is coming out of the shop next week!  Checked it in for a brake job (I delivered the parts) and one other thing (I forget) last summer...then the owner made a quick run without a helmet to pick up some parts, and was broadsided by a cell phone user, and experienced both broken bones and a bit of brain damage...so it's taken him a while (!) to get caught up on his work. He just spent two hours cleaning multiple layers of paint off of the valve covers (they were blue when I got it) and powder-coating them black.  A co-worker has an interest in maybe buying it, but if he doesn't I may sell the 2009 Bonneville and stick with the R65.

Good to hear from you, Burt!

Sorry for your mechanic's misfortune but glad he wasn't using your R65 for the parts chase.

Check in more often cuz we miss you.

I would keep the R65.  Those Bonnevilles are fairly common, but that's one of the nicest looking R65s around.  And I say that with mine out in the parking lot, oh well.
