Hello All ,

  My name is Rich and I am from York, PA Was wondering if there is anyone from the area. I just picked up a 1990 gs500e and I am doing some work on it. It has the airtech fairings on it ( but they are totally rashed). Also who ever own this bike musta did alot of racing , there are safety wires everywhere and its been jetted bored and revalved. For a 500 this thing has some kicki to it. I am presently sanding down the frame, painting the tank and seat cowlings. Also the handlebars were removed and clips installed. The starter clutch kept slipping ( crank bolt would not stay tight) that prob is gone but the crankcase cover is cracked and neds replaced. Overall this bike has its death and I am going to try to bring it back to life. i plan on having it done before spring , so if there are any riders from the area like tomeet ya and hook up for riding in the spring

Every zero you add to the tolerance adds a zero to the price.

If the product "fails" will the product liability insurance pay for the "failure" until it turns 18?

Seems like a lot of PA Riders here..  (myself included - Pittsburgh), would it be alright if I advertised the address of a forum I'm tryin to start up targeting Western PA Riders?  I just started it last week, and am trying to populate it.  It's not my goal to take members away from here, but to try and localize some riders.  Who would I talk to about that?

Thunder in the Valley looks sweet!  Lookin' into it!

With 225,000 bikes in town, where does one stay for less than $1,000 a night?   :o

Yeah, I'll come down and drag at least one guy with me, schedules permitting.  If you know of a good area without lots of drunkeness/rowdiness that would be great.   :laugh:

Geep did you check out the website? I think that the Cambria County fairgrounds would be a good place if you want to camp. Its a bit out away from all the madness  :icon_mrgreen:
