Sorry to hear about the bones and possibly resetting it, Leon. On the other hand, as far as that small piece of bone in concerned, if it's like all other "spare parts" I usually find when I reassemble my VFR, you don't really need it.................................

Our friends down under must be still hibernating. Or something.

Back to school?

 

 

Let me think about that....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"maybe"...

 

Hehehe. My thoughts exactly. There ARE pros to going back...

Hello Cock!

 

Wrist is still sore if I twist it the "wrong" way/when I wake up during the night and in the morning,

It is still (three weeks by now) in cast. We'll see if they'll remove it Monday next....

 

Found my VF500 key today (had "put it in a safe place" 8 weeks ago before we set off to Italy...) and she fired right up.

So come spring, I will first take her for a ride and see.  For yes, I'm all convinced I will keep riding, but the proof will be in the pudding...

 

 

I fancy a VTR1000R/SC45/RC51 (SP2 version) but there too, first ride one to know for sure. 5 years ago a sat on one at the local dealer, but my gut was "in the way".

Having dropped 11 kilo's for my 2-up ride with Mamola, I'm hopeful the RC51 will fit me better.....

But 1st things 1st, heal up, find a job I like with people that like me and that I like..... 

Achieve that in say max 2 years and I will be happy as a pig in muck!  I have time, means and opportunity to charter the next chapter of my professional life.

 

 

 

Ok, that is all good news. I sometimes take pics with my phone of those things I "put in a safe place", just in case I need a reminder... 

Sounds like you have some ideas for bikes. Have you been to dealerships?? Just to see what is out there?? I am not suggesting anything else, just saying that new things may catch your eye. I, for sure, am not current on Mother Honda's offering --nor on any other company. 

As for the job, you are right, this should be your first priority. Will you go back to school?   .................. one never knows. 

Best of luck my friend!!

Redslut will be transported to my local dealer for insurance value determination.

Really? Considering the price of plastics alone, I'm surprised they even bother. But I know nothing, so please do not take m word for it. I hope it turns out ok either way.

Sure was easy to see you in the mirrors even in bright daylight! And even the RC24:s when moving my head slightly sideways :)

 

the distraction, phone, kids, radio? Only driver knows.

Sometimes, when you are not looking for something (expecting), you cannot see it.

Are all ok!!!!!

sounds to me like you still are ahead...

Safe journey home Leon. 

C

Sorry about Redslut. But Cougar will be ready at home waiting for you when you are all healed up.

Yes, what happened to the whiskey? 

Good luck with the insurance company and such. 

Cheers!

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  

Sorry to hear Leon. I hope that you are mostly ok physically--wrist does not hurt too much? Are you allowed to drink while on pain killers? Is the head ok, considering you were unconscious for a bit??  Crap! That sure is bad news. 

You blew 0% on alcohol, that seems like a pretty slam dunk from an insurance point of view.... I hope it goes smoothly. 

On the bright side, good thing you do not have to go to work on Monday or anything... 

I'd say don't hesitate to call if I can help, but.... I'm a tad far...  but all the same, I can give you reading lists for the next little while. How do you feel about the history of the French language?? Historical phonetics??? 

Cheers man! Keep the spirits up!! (yes, pun intended... even a bad one like this one)

Hi Polarbear,

Thank you for your donation of $25.00. We look forward to improving the forums with your donation.

Thanks VFRDiscussion

Hey Belfry! 

Thanks for this nice ride report. Glad to hear you had a good time riding south and getting lost. All part of living and enjoying riding. Who needs them steenkin' GPSs anyways!!  That "M" up Sentinel Mountain seems like a 15 min gentle hike up that mountain. Are you sure you weren't drinking when you said you looked at it??!?  ........................   

Was nice meeting you too. Cheers mate!

I am not an expert by any means, but it sounds electrical to me. I would check the following:

1. connections at the battery; male sure everything is tight

2. grounds; check all grounds... (to me, this is the biggest suspect)

3. all connectors to and from the stator and R/R

4. the battery itself, have it tested, one never knows... 

Best of luck.

Made it home a few hours ago. No idea how many kilometers, what the average fuel consumption was, what the max seed was --ahem.... better that way...  All I know is that I had fun, and that it was great seeing everyone again. Sorry to those who I did not talk very much. I will try harder next time. 

Thanks again Mike, that was a great event. 

And, as Thumper said, let me know if the books do not balance and I will pitch in for sure. 

Cheers!!!

Cbx1100? Turbo?

Bring your dually and we can form a group. Went to Sandon today. Really cool ghost town. VFRs could do it easily if it is dry. 

I would LOVE to go to a ghost town!!!
