      Well congratulations on making Bike of the Month. I've tried a couple of time and did not make it. I was told to not have any clutter in the background... I cleaned the motorcycle to a "T", with no fuel stains around the carborators, I wrote a nice writeup. I even had a professional photographer take the picture. Making Bike of the Month must be a political thing... Kind of like the Moody Blues not making the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. ☺

            storm 64 -

            I sent you two Private Messages in the past year asking you to re-submit your photos for the "Bike of the Month" feature because there were database issues the last time made your submission.

            Please re-submit your pics to the GS Resources if you're still interested. (I sent you another Private Message today about this)

            P.S. I'm sometimes shown as a "newbie" because the V-Bulletin forum software will automatically change a person's title as a "newbie" for inactivity.....apparently I don't log into the GS Resources forum often enough !

                  Nice looking 850, looks exactly like my 1st one. I should have kept it. Hindsight is always 20/20.

                          The problem with the Moody Blues is they have defined their music in their name, now nobody believes they were a rock band. Now the Rolling Stones were a shoe-in for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
