Good to hear Gerry, fingers crossed until it is collected and in its new home. :yes:

The new Owner picked her up today. She took one last bow and went on her way.

A lot of history with that bike. I remember when you first got it and your girls working on it with you. Kind of sad to see that end.

It is sad, but in the end I wouldn't trade all of the great memories and times spent with my girls restoring her, making changes over the years and of course the road trips and meet and greets. I also know that I have to know my limitations. I am not getting better with age and risking any further injury just doesn't make sense. Arthritis alone is a show stopper let alone herniated discs and knee issues. It has been quite a ride! :moped: :salute:

This is how I will remember it... I will always remember that trip. What started as just another trip became a ride with a friend.

Was that when going to the meet in French Lick at Joe’s place?

Yup. That was where we stopped at a camp site in West Virginia.

:smilie_happy:

That was the reason I changed to this arrangement:

It was a lot safer than loading up the bike like that!

Brian, it sure was a great trip and one of the best rides I ever had! We will have to see what other 1100 parts you might need now that I do not need the spares anymore.
