            I posted this before handing the furry bear over to Andy. He and I haven't talked in a while, my fault.

            No one objected so...

            This may be the shortest distance he's ever gone to be with another member, about five miles.

            Here's a shot of Stator jumping from my bike to Andy's.

            Indeed he is, was? I'm not sure what's going on with him.

                Hi Wayne. Welcome. This particular thread is not the place. It’s a rather silly but fun thread about the ramblings our mascot, Stator. You’ll want to start your own thread in the GS Owners Forum and introduce yourself and your bike(s). Before you do, I see you figured out how to create a signature. Some people will add their bike info: year and model(s), maybe your first name (I’ve assumed it’s Wayne).

                  Hello waynewhite welcome to the forum.

                  As Rich82GS750TZ said this isn't the place.
                  Do feel free to introduce yourself. It'll be read and approved.

                    Can you tell me why there is always a line. Is Sparky's a chain of restaurants or is there just the one? I'm guessing that this is in Albuquerque?

                      So where is Stator? No one has posted pictures in months and I’m hoping the virus hasn’t gotten him

                          We have lots of mom and pop burger joints, but I've never heard of Sparky's. Must be somewhere else.

                          I tried to contact Stator's current host here in Albuquerque yesterday and got no reply. Stator was fine and well when Andy and I spoke last about three weeks ago. He, Andy not Stator, was traveling as he has for much of the first quarter of this year.

                          I'll keep trying to get in touch.

                            Sparky's is in Hatch NM, it draws folks from all over, El Paso, Las Cruces, etc. They are only open 4 days a week and is a mom and pop operation. They have some mighty good green chile cheese burgers among a host of other good stuff.
