Three amazing Grandsons and a beautiful granddaughter, four great kids, two crazy cats, a husband who is fun to have around and two great motorcycles, one is an 1200 Interstate currently apart being painted and a Harley.

Hello all,

Been a while since joining the site. Some changes have been made during that time.


• Bobbed rear fender
• Painted front fender and gauge housing
• Axle mount license plate & tail light ($7 trailer light)
• FL signal lights
• V-Rod mirrors (lowered)
• 83' Aspencade wheel & swingarm retro-fit
• Removal of lame front brake mod (previous owner installed and came apart on me on the road)
• Rebuilt wiring harness
• Restored speedo & tach
• New seat

Very tasteful and well-executed modifications. Well done! Love the fork brace. I have the same brace on my CBX!

Welcome back! Good things come to those who wait (us).
