Okay, this is brutal...I can't figure out how to re-size this stupid thing...grrrrrrrrrrr. But crazy enough, a guy just stopped by and offered me money for this grenade so 'bye-bye' Honda.
This may be the lamest thread I have ever posted...

Ha! Well, gay as it sounds, I picked up this P.O.S. Magna that a co-worker told me about (his brother had to move and the bike in storage since 1993 HAD TO BE GONE before they closed the deal on the house...the bike was indeed in an enclosed shed...right next to the POOL!!!). What an idiot, this thing was covered in corrossion like it had been stored at the bottom of the ocean...never been down, 16K on the clock, yadda-yadda. I got it for free, the guy that just left is $200 lighter and about 550lbs heavier in the bed of his Nissan...he thinks HE got a deal...(snicker, snicker)...I didn't even have to part this bitch out to make money off it! Ha!!!

Screw the photo...it's too big...(I hear that a lot from the wife...OOOHHHHHH!!!!!!). :laugh:
I'm happy. I made money for no work at all. :)
Everyday should be like this. :)

-KR

PS> Sorry about the gay post and no photos, whatayado!?

Save the picture to paint

I know, I know...this post is lame-as-Hell...my bad! On a more important note: how are things in your neck of the woods? ...have you recovered yet, things settled back down yet?...or will they ever??? I know it's been a while but disaster is disasterous and I always feel like a selfish dick when I'm complaining about my big little world and I remember others go through much more, bitching much less.

Evidently a "couple hours" means a "day" or so. :)
Still...gonna have to get the wife to help make this thing smaller (heh-heh...that's what SHE said!)

...oh,,,a 305...you know, I'd make a joke about that, but Magnas rate right up there on the list of "bikes I don't like" so you never KNOW what's going to end up in my garage.
:I
I'll see if I can get the wife on this a.s.a.p. ...oh, I see another joke there... ;)
