Being as you work at a good job, just go buy another tire, you don't need any justification, plus, you need a white wall on the front too.......:) looks good tho

I ordered some 14 inch ape hangers . Plus the wiring,clutch cable and two throttle cables. Next is a solo seat and cutting the frame in half . Then welding on a hard tail kit .

No-o-o-o-o-o-o! Not ape hangers! I think they're so stupid-looking. Why wreck a perfectly good-looking machine?

Our Harley with sidecar had white walls.

I personally LOVE :<3:ape hangers, you can create your own hard tail by simply removing the shocks, can't you? And NO solo seat. How in the hell are you ever gonna take me for a ride???

Yeah but taking the shocks off is the easy way. Doesn't look right. And it doesn't stretch the frame out . To give it a longer wheelbase.

Hello all. Looks like I've missed a whole lot. Had to step back to fix my life, something happened to me last year that I never dealt with and ignoring it stopped working and my brain basically broke. I made a new friend who's literally become a big brother to me and I love him to death and he's helped me through a lot. I'm doing better, Nank is well, I just got a new betta fishie, I just did 2 days of the Spartan Beast in Killington VT (my favorite place on earth) and just came home from a week of being up there, and tomorrow have a GORUCK where I'll put 10lbs in my bag and go do crazy stuff.

How's everyone been!?

OK, some of you know that I started volunteering at the local wildlife center. So some jerk, found a tortoise walking across the road in Portland, (100 miles away) and he drives it down here to Corvallis. So they call me and I go get it and hear the story. Now please explain to me how easily it would be to find it's owner 100 miles away. EXCEPT even if the tort was found here in Corvallis, the only reason I would try to find the owner would be to have them arrested for animal cruelty. Here's the picture why, and no, his mouth is not open, that's his bottom jaw sticking about 1/8th of an inch. I am so freakin mad, I will close my computer after I post this picture for you noob's to see how you personally can ruin a tortoise's life by NOT DOING YOUR RESEARCH!!! grrr:mad:

He's only 5 inches long, no way to tell how old he really is. He was petrified of the water. Probably never been in any before.

What a dumb guy. If he's only five inches and his shell was that bad then he's probably never been taken care of correctly in it's entire life probably had no access to water to

Mbd is for sure ! Soaks and calcium rich foods and some sun shine will do him some good . He's small so he has a lot of growing up to do .

Yep I agree Mike, and so I'm going to keep him until he's healthier, and I can find an experienced keeper who'd want him. That will be months from now.
