  Nice Day here!! (Köhln Bon) 8) 8) although I did have both V's up and running sounded a lot like spring.!!
    Dorothy's R/W needed  a starter I think after 103,560 kms the brushes are shot, I replaced the seal around 35,000kms.
    Anyhow both are ready to head of to the Tiger Hotel !!!
            Can't wait.
               On the Road again...  Ken S. ;)

Say Tiger, how are you making out with searching for nearby motel rates, and round trip taxi fares?  The only online rate i could find was the Best Western in Orangeville at $380 for Fri.Sat.



Tiger

 :) Regarding motels try: http://www.norpeelmotel.ca/index.html or Atlanta Motel, (519) 941-8280...they are a LOT cheaper than the one and only new hotel!!! These are approx' 15 minutes from my place...

8) SUPERB Jay, great to hear from you again and I look forward to riding with you and Jane once more brother... 8)

Sadly, we have lost an ever present at the OnROV rides... :'( due to family commitments, (which always come first in my book), NightVision won't be able to join us for the Spring ride :'( However, there WILL be other rides to get together through 2009 8)

Well Mr John Looks like we will be camping at Elora gorge for the May 24 weekend, not soo far from y'all lol. Had some issues with the paint this winter, i took the cover off of her to find most of the paint has flaked off the top of the gastank, this would be due to the fact that I used furniture lacquer instead of automotive paint. I have managed to repair and touch up the tank with the clever use of some flat black rust paint, she still looks mean, and runs great. Those 83 risers have really saved my back. I'll try and get a pic of the new flat black accents.

Was wondering if that red Vision was still available the one you emailed me about. Jane has the bike fever and needs to get riding badly ! 800.00 would be about right.
