Hello, my name is Kris, and I have a problem....sort of....

At one time, (for a couple months anyway) I had a Single Cylinder, a Twin, a Triple, and a Four cylinder. While each one, was of the big four japanese manufacturers. All the while, still making room for my wifes Seca ll, and my sons 50cc honda. Im not bragging by any means, because only 2 of them were in good working order.:doh:
I told you I was sick.:wink2:

It is rare, and highly contagous. However, sadly enough, men are only carriers of the disease, and women seem to be immune. They say, that to find a cure of the disease, you use the antibodies of the disease itself. Dont think that rule works with this one.
Just wondering if any other people have shared in my illness.:shrug:
 
Huh, lets see I have my 82 heritage special torn apart in my bedroom :yikes: . I have a 77 Jeep cj5 torn apart in the driveway :doh: , a 91 chevy s10 (not torn apart but the motor is being planned) and a 95 Grand cherokee 2" lift on 31's as a daily driver. and I am also always on the lookout for more bikes.
 
I have a xs 1978 standard running and a 1976 in parts also a 1963 BSA in buckets.except the tank and side covers on the BSA painted. Tony C
 
I remember having about $700 bucks saved up to get a lift kit for my Grandy. My than 2 year old son and i went into the local bike shop to get some parts for my KX ( the single cylinder in the thread) when my son jumps on a Little 50cc. AND to my surprise, he could touch the ground while on the bike. ( he is really tall for his age. He is 7 and 4'8"now.) So my wad of cash went to finiding him a used 50cc. No lift kit. oh well, i get more enjoyment out of watching him ride.

It's ever changing from a low of one non runner two years ago up to about 15 or 20 at the moment. Women aren't immune (ask Barb) with my wife it's horses, she has 5 this year but actually rides em all, I help. We have a declared truce, she doesn't complain about the bikes I keep my mouth shut (mostly) about the horses. Peace reigns.
 
Me and the wife both do. I have the 74TX (done for now)a 93 KLR650, and a 2004 Ducati 999. She has a Ducati monster s2r800 and soon hopfully a SOHC honda.

My wife is trying to cure me of my disease. At one time I had about 10 non runners that needed a home. So I gave them a home. Then I got married and the new wife said the "doorstops" had to go. With the help of ebay and craigslist I was able to find them good homes. Right now I have my '80 SG and 3 KZ 650 's.(2 parts bikes and the project). I really don't want any cure. There's a kz on cl i want really bad....

TOO COLD?!?!? Its like 60 degrees where you are at lol
 
60 is fine... It's the 40's due to the fog that keeps me off the bike. Too many injuries from MMA and barfights in my sordid past.... And I can't bring myself to wear one of those michellin man looking suits out of vanity.

I ride helmetless un insulated gloves and leather jacket above 40 deg, below that I put on the full face and face mask ... if it weren't for the snow I wouldn't have brought the bike inside ... :thumbsup:
