NickDG 23 #728 June 1, 2010 Rode 9INA twice since the first ride (can't get "NINA" on her plates, it's taken, so 9INA she'll be.) I put twenty miles on her last night and a couple more this morning. And I got my first civilian wave. An older lady (a Couger?) looked up from her gardening as I passed. I thought she was going to give me the stink eye but she smiled wide and shot me a big wave. Maybe I should have pulled over for a booty call . . . Last night was killer. It was warm and like only So Cal can be like in the spring. I wanted to keep going forever. But after I passed the second cop going the other way I decided to call it a night. I've got an appointment at the DMV on the 16th of June for 9INA's plates but I'll have to be careful until then as I just can't stay off her. Like being a newly wed I guess . . .

skyrider 0 #729 June 1, 2010 No problems yet, no loose bolts, wire issues? You are so good at details, I won't be surprised if there are not! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NickDG 23 #730 June 1, 2010 I got close to perfect, but there were a couple of issues. My clutch cable slipped down and melted a bit of its casing on my front pipe, but not all the way through, so I fixed that. And my oil pressure gauge is weeping a bit of oil where it enters the block, but so far that's it. I'll chalk it up to luck and all the years I worked on airplanes. Where everything has to be right. Hey Gypsy, if you're cool with it, after I get 9INA's license plates, I'd love to come by and show her to you. If that's all right PM me your address. It would be a good "first trip" for me. If you don't want me to know where all the cool knuckle parts are located we could certainly do it the other way around and your invited to my place . . . LOL!

And once you've got her street legal, maybe you can ride 'er down to Lucky Baldwin's ...

NickDG 23 #737 June 1, 2010 Yeah, Gypsy's right, the frigging DMV is only the first step. It's a "bring me the broom of the wicked witch of the west" pain in the ass process. But you have a tentative date. I want to enter 9INA in a Chopper of the Month contest on another forum I frequent and that alley behind Baldwins would be a great urban backdrop for the photographs. But I need a girl draped over her looking real sleezy. I already know you've got the goods (I've dreamed them a few times) but can you do sleezy?
