Title: she's gone :(
Post by: miket on May 14, 2004, 12:48:00 PM
Well, today I helped the new owner load her on his trailer and I saw her leaving. It was a little sad, but at least I know she's in good hands.

I just wanted to thank everyone here, first of all our commander in chief and (sometimes) benevolent administrator, for all the help and pleasant conversations I have had on this board. I have joined the old board the day after I bought her over three years ago, and have been checking it almost daily ever since. By far, this is the most polite, respectful and helpful bunch of riders I have seen. Good luck to you all.

-Mike

PS. My web page with howtos and pictorials, including the rejetting info and the invaluable ghetto radar detector mount, will stay for as long as I can keep it there, even though I will not be updating it anylonger. Feel free to keep checking it or borrowing whatever you need. It's located at http://www.angelfire.com/mt2/mikesgs500

Thanks for everything, Mike - especially the "ghetto mount".  One of these days I'll have to get myself a GPS unit, and when I do....

Thanks also for the "master link" to your How-To pages.  I need to not-so-accidentally check my swing arm bearings soon.

Do you have another ride, or is this "goodbye to bikes" for a while?

Hi Kerry,

I have had an FZR600 for some time now, and that one stays. I'll miss your detailed explanations with pictures for sure. I hope some day you'll buy an FZR too :) In the meantime, I'll keep checking your web site for your write-up on your trip to India (no pressure, of course ;) )

Hey man, I don't think I did/had many conversations with you, but I will say that I am sorry to see your GS go.  Good luck in the future, and you should check in from time-to-time even if it is just to say "Hello".  Take care and enjoy your FZR.
