I value the community here.  It's definitely worth the effort to help keep the community safe, free of scammers, and to help others work things out amicably.  But one must first take care of themselves before they can be a valued member of society.  


I've always loved VFRs, one of my favorite bikes ever.  I've never owned one, but a good friend of mine; that's all he's owned for the last two decades.

Currently I have two older BMWs; a 1974 R90S that runs great but looks like shit.  One of these winters I'll take it apart to restore it.  My main ride is a 1998 R1100GS that looks and runs great, but recently developed a leak in the front brake's master cylinder.  I just installed the rebuild kit last week.

I bought The R90S from my former father-in-law.  I started dating his daughter when I was 19, but I think it was the summer when I was 20, he let me take the bike (and his daughter) for a ride.  At least I still have the bike, but the daughter... that's another story.
