I think a birdie told him that you were in attendance here on occasion, so he was probably playing it safe.

I would be hard to say no. Sure would love to see you all again.

Thanks for the info Don. It reminds me that sooner or later we all get to face that time, whether we like it or not. Best thing is to prepare for it while we still can. Tell others we love them, clean out the garage, setup will and testament, know what happens after this life, inform the right parties of funeral wishes etc, tell others you still love them.

You WORK?

You were driving a gas guzzler,,,, but that doesn't say they aren't flying somewhere for vacation next week, or maybe going on a cruise.

I worked on an 84 this past winter,, Mark bought it new so it has that value for him. So far he has over 2k into it and now we need to pull the engine, found a weak cylinder and a shifting issue,,, he says, go for it! Could easily be another 2 k.

If any other rider would have been that close to my place I would some words for him,,, except @sleepy2of course. You I can forgive,, at least for now!

Haven't seen you for soo long I had to get a lick in there,,, it's the best I could come up with on short notice.

Looks clean and SHINY!! Nice goin'

So when did that start?

In the afternoon, 3pm or so.

Not going to work for me,,, getting ready to be 'out of town' that day.

looks good, way to use some tap washers and thinking outside the box.

You could always just become a full member, that way you could share with others as well.

I knew that,, why didn't you just ask?

You are sooo nice to your Tina.

Go for it,, with only 6000 on the clock and already a starter, it's a no brainer, but be sure to read the fine print.

Nice find, I know you'll love. Don't know what compressor you are talking about, but if it's for the air ride, it's usually not the compressor but the controller.

Yep, works perfect.

Not that I have seen all the 83s, but the ones I have worked on did not have such a bleeder valve, but I believe the 86 and up does.

You didn't mention anything about recharge costs, that needs to be in the equation as well. Of course now we need to start thinking about the future costs of electricity vs that of gasoline or diesel,,, too much for my brain, I can't look that far into the future, and if I could they would be sure to change it so that I would be wrong once again. Last year we bought a Country Clipper z-turn with a joystick. Ours is only a 42" but they make bigger ones. I couldn't be happier, easiest machine I've ever cut grass with. But it does run on gas.

This 86 is a real gem. All the known issues have been addressed. John is very fussy when it comes to machines. It's an awesome machine!!

Gonna be a loss for sure, but being such a loss shows that there were many good times that you two could enjoy while spending a short life on this earth. Maybe there is someone else who you can continue to make memories with. The Master is really good at that!

Shouldn't have to, I never have.
