Pulled pork sandwich with original BBQ sauce ( although I tried all 3) macaroni and cheese ( and I tried the jalapeno beans my brother got) a root beer and a little ice cream cone.

I'd have come over all sentimental and mawkish looking at my old bikes. They become like friends and it's sad to see them go. I hope some lucky punter grabs your CB100 soon. They weren't made for sitting around in showrooms.

I notice you're wearing a hi vis vest. I saw this piece on a British site the other day, http://www.visordown.com/features/discus...z2t3Tdh0rD which might interest you. I hasten to add I've no view on this, but being a curmudgeon myself, I quite like contrarians. If noting else they make you think.

I wore the Hi Viz vest because right now people are not used to seeing motorcycles and I wanted to be a little more conspicuous. In the summer if Im riding down town or through town on the freeway Ill wear the Hi Viz vest. Most of the summer I dont wear it. Ive though about a high viz jacket, but I have what 9 jackets ? ( see the I am a Gearaholic thread lol) and I really don't need another for a little while anyway. Coming from 24 1/2 years in the Highway Traffic Safety Products business, I can absolutely unequivocally guarantee you are more visible wearing Hi Viz than not wearing it, however, I don't always feel like playing it safe.I ride motorcycles.


Yes it felt great to get out! I hear next week we are headed back I to the teens, and if the roads are clear I will get to ride some more.

Don't think they will get what they are asking for my CB, but people tend to pay more at dealerships than they would from a private seller. I expect they will get near $8k for it though.
