  21. in texas, it don't matter what you claim to have paid for a particular vehicle, anymore. taxes are charged according to what the "insurance replacement cost/real value", of said vehicle! used to be you could say you bought it for "ten dollars and other considerations". that all went out the window, this year! just jt
  22. MAN!!! you have got the patience of "Job"!!! if that guy had dropped my bike, as old as it is, in front of me, i "would have been in his eye, like pepper-sauce"!!!! one of us, would have needed EMS services! i truly hope that you come out on top, on this one, but - - - - who knows! just jt

  25. i'm gonna have to trade my '86, in on a h.d.! those guys, can ride everyday in shorts, t-shirts, sandals, and NEVER a helmet. never see or hear of them guys getting creamed by a blue haired old lady in a new caddy! i think , there is a "subliminal" ,"bulls eye", painted on ALL big yamahas, that only "non-riders", can see! it is getting to a point, where just going out for an afternoon ride, is too risky, let alone an all out long distance tour! just jt
