    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Your count is good, Glen. Thanks for doing that!

And congratulations on the win! What do you have for this week? :cool:
 
Thanks. Still have to find a pic, but since its New Year's Day.. New....
new parts, new gear, new horizons, etc.

I hear some scientists are arguing for Pluto to be reinstated as a planet, along with about 100 other dwarfs.

This is a pic from the Ebay ad for the 1980 GS850G that got me back into riding in 2004 after a 20 year break to "be a "responsible adult" and raise kids. I suppose that makes it a new to me pic.

Yes it was a new beginning my friend, good on ya. I did 17 years of no motorcycles .......0 to 17. Ha ha, sorry Trev, couldn't resist.
 
Been just over 12 months since i bought this. Its in NZ, (im in Aus), and i thought i would have been able to get over there by now. Covid, Especially Delta, put payed to that just as the travel between NZ and Aus was opening up Aus let the Delta Variant get away over here and NZ shut it down. Haven't seen it, Physically, sat on it or ridden it, and can't see it happening for a couple of years..........Thinking of selling. Don't have to but i also don't want it to sit and deteriorate.

More and more about me is becoming vintage, and not much is "new". Well, recently when I did get a "new" motorcycle, it was 12 years old.

But my 40 year old bike looks new compared to this in this pic
