'86 Aspy crashed

#1

Post by Track T 2411 »

Kevin Jolly asked me to post a few pics of his '86 Aspencade. He suffered a crash a couple of days ago when a cager made an unexpected left turn. He and his service dog Buddy are sore and bruised, but generally OK. He's hoping to get the bike back home today.

He's put a lot of time into getting the bike 100% mechanically sound, so he's hoping to get it back on the road one way or another. I'm sure he'll post up here soon and fill y'all in...

The result could have been so much worse. Glad they are both ok.
