hpoe this is ok for now

[bill widrig]

i posted a while back how my plans to have my rocket by now wont pan out for a while...well...

that remains the same...to add to the mayhem i recently decided to change jobs to something requiring much less travel,so i could spend time with my family

this new job pays WAY less for now..so financing was not an option....so.....i took the very last of my cash stash and bought an 81 xs1100...

i feel i NEED to get back in the wind ..no matter what...if only to save my sanity..and the wife was on board so i did it


i hope i can still join you fine gentle men on thisd site...this bike is a temporary fix...and i will be handing it on to my son in a couple years..

I promice fellas..i WILL have my rocket... my new goal if for a next winter purchase..wife thinks it should be no problem...

hope everyone understands.my heart is on a ROCKET but my wallet is on an xs11...for now

You're more than welcome here! Being a Rocket Captain is a state of mind . . . . . . .

Heck yeah, that 1100 will get you into the wind. If you find out the running gear is solid on the 1100, you might keep it after you get a Rocket.

a lot of us has dreamed for a while to own a rocket. it makes it so sweet when it comes true and i think maybe i appreciate having it more because i know if business goes down that will be the first thing to go.
i am just another rider but you are always welcome as far as i am concerned.

Hell's bells, Bill, we're not brand snobs here, of course you are welcome!

Did you momentarily mistake us for a Harley forum?

Of course, you WILL have to pay "non-owner" dues - which are 3x Owner's dues!

... directly to ksquared, by the way!

 

[GPMAZ]

Absolutely not, you must leave immediately.

Wait, the owner of the site does not own a Rocket.

Never mind.

That old Yammie shaftie was a pretty good runner - except in the twisties.
Frame flex was horrible. Be careful. Enjoy the wind.
