Bike pics

Hey man, thanks for posting that. I'd like to track the guy down. I was browsing the photos and the water fall pics looked very famular. At closer look it turnd out to be Black
Water falls. I've kayaked that river. That stretch is called the North Fork of the Black Water. Intense!!!!! I did it twice and probably never again. You'd better be at the top of your game to do that one. That stretch takes a life now and again. Just interesting to see those photos pop up here. Troy
 
Don't mean to hijack the thread, but can't pass the chance to post up a couple of kayaking photos. These were taken on the north fork of the black water. Like I said, its a pretty hard core run.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Ok, now back to bikes....
 
Yeah, I notice that bike too. I'm with JRK when I say I happen to like it alot! The bigger the headlight the better. But that's just me and my taste.
He does have some very cool scoots on his page.

I live about an hour from black water falls . there is not enough alcohol in west virginia that could get me to go down one of those waterfalls in a skinny little boat

If you can believe it the river gets much tougher down in the canyon. The day after my last run there a guy shattered both ankles on one of the falls. He was by himself (not the smartest thing to do) and it took him 12 hours to crawl 2 miles. He is kinda a nut case.
Hey man, Are you the one with the bike photos? If so, some awesome builds you've done! Anyway, its pretty cool to see that there are some cafes that close. I live about an hour from Davis too. However, I'm sure it's in the opposite direction from you. Gonna have to hit ya up next time I'm heading that way. Troy
 
I've been following him on Flickr for a while... long before the bike was done. Its for sale on ebay for $4500...

Here's the link.

Sweet bike! sorry to hear about the furnace. Hope that doesn't put the bike purchase on hold. Man, I'm right up the road from you. Had no idea that there were such cool bikes that close to me! I live in Kingwood and my wife grew up in Fairmont.

Dont worry , i will have a bike soon enough , the furnace was a set back but I should have something soon , i really want to find a xs650 just because i can get parts so easily through mikesxs.com
 
Golly Screwed, I was just saying to myself, "Self, You see light at the end of the tunnel of bike projects. And you don't lust for another manchine." Self was content........until seeing a couple very fancy R75s. Damn you! Bet they make pretty sounds, too. Let's see, cheap /6. Gonna need some voodoo.
