Yee haw!

[Stephen]

Had just finished my breakfast of a left over sonic burger at noon today and my wife say's to me, are you bored? I said of course I'm bored. She's says then why don't you go bust open that crate . I said baby you sure about that? I can wait. She says go do it, so I did. Mucho big grin on face! But there's one rule, I cannot take it off the crate, hey I can live with that. After looking it over (and being a critics worst nightmare) I proclaim it a mighty fine looking machine. Few ding/dents probably from pulling it from the mold (best I could complain about). I didn't expect to get tires (yes I did) and a primer job (yes I did again) so I ain't a complainin bout nuttin honey. Big thanks to Tony and Tony's trikes for the excellent service, fast delivery (8 day's) and the great price. Rake kit should ship tomorrow. And another big thanks to Old Dominion Freight Line for hauling it outta Mini-sota two days before that big as snow storm that stopped everyone up there in their tracks. If the install goes well I'm gonna make a trip to Alabama so I can rub Tony's head for good luck. YEE HAW!

Those pictures really give me something to look forward to - I just ordered a Roadsmith for my Titanium 2006 GL1800, but the dealer tells me it will take 4 weeks to get here from MN. Can't really complain - just snow and ice here now but the anticipation makes it bearable!

 

[Stephen]

Last two pics till I get her done then I'll put up a link.

That first picture is why I decided not to become a thoracic surgeon! (Which I think might have been simpler than opening up my bike!)

I'm building my trike on the ground without a table lift, I probably won't ever do that again. At 59 years old 8 surgeries have taken a toll on me. Waaaaa!:gah:

Good to read all these positive remarks on the Roadsmith. My kit arrived at Morton's Trikes in Louisville on Wednesday and Bob Morton himself came all the way to La Grange (about 60 miles total) to pick up my 2006 Wing for the installation. All he asked for was a $20 contribution towards gas! Installation starts Monday and he invided me to pop in at any time and watch the progress.

About one week from today, weather permitting, I'll be riding around his parking lot for quite a while before I take the new trike out in the traffic to get home! :Excited: ThumbUp

Congrats, Konrad! It's going to be the longest week of your life, you know....
