I have been complaining since I bought my bike in 2005 that I can't seam to find any accessories for my bike. Now that I have found this site I am as close to accessories heaven as I possibly can be.
I have been spending the last few days getting to know my way around this fantastic site, and I only get happier every minute. One of the great things about this site is to be able to look at the members accessories list and to read their comments. To be able to find bikes like mine and see how people have customized their rides is fantastic.
The down side to all this, if I can call it a down side, is that only few days before I found this site I had ordered some chrome on ebay, so now I have to wait at leat for few days before I can do it to my wife to order all the goodies I have found here :) I am fishing for Mackerel off the coast of Africa at the moment, and because I work for 12 hours and get 12 hours off every day I have too much free time on my hands browsing on the internet looking for some shiny parts. A part from all the little chrome accessories I just ordered I ordered Tsukayu Jumbo Hard bags with Luggage racks and Bag guards. The bags will be painted in the colors of my bike so I cant wait to see it.
I will be here until the beginning of January so it will be my wife's job to find a place in the garrage for all my new stuff. Oh I cant wait to get home to put everything on my bike :)
I have to thank all of you for making this site so interesting :)
Ride safe,

History has given Bowser credit for inventing the gas pump, but what Bowser tried to invent was a better way to pump water from a well. His invention wasn’t strong enough to draw water from such a depth, but when applied to shorter distances it was a success. Bowser applied his principles to small pumps that were badly needed in country stores and anywhere that kerosene was sold. This was during a time when very little gasoline was being used, as the automobile had still not been invented. The 1892 introduction of the Durea automobile and the growing popularity of automobiles brought changes to the pump industry. As gasoline sales increased following the turn of the century, Bowser built a gas pump for general stores. Bowser grew rapidly and became a very large corporation with branches all over the world. Bowser also diversified, making hundreds of products besides gas pumps. At the end of World War II, Bowser found itself in financial trouble and began offering gas pumps at lower prices.
Defininitely not meant toward my wife or anybody elses wife.
I was just passing it on and thought most people would find this very funny. LOL
Well I guess its about that time,time to drop the oil out of Ole Yella and change it for winter,don"t want any moisture that may have gathered over the season in there to freeze this winter.Top her off with gas and put her to bed for the winter,kinda like hibernation I guess.Man this really bites,I hate having to put her away,I just wanna RIDE A LITTLE MORE.
finally gonna get to ride for the first time in 2 weeks tomorow. weather hasn't been too bad here but work has got in the way and haven't had a chance to ride, had a bad case of withdrawal for sure lol. there is a local organization that collects donations all year and uses the money to buy turkeys and all the fixings for thanksgiving dinners and they have us bikers ride along to help deliver the food to needy families in the area. rode in it last year and had a blast, after all the food is delivered they have all of us bikers meet somewhere and feed us a big dinner for riding and helping out. the temp is supposed to be high of 65 with sunshine and for colorado in november that is a treat . so to everyone here at ccc have a great thanksgiving and hope ya'll get the chance to put some miles on soon.
