Quote from: m in sc on March 06, 2024, 03:22:49 PMI assume thats a honda of some sort?. look at the underbracing on the swingarm! thats all business, no show.

I don't know the year but it's my Brother's bike. I found him a set of 33mm mikuni smoothbores to go on it
and I'd really love to hear that bassani "basso profundo" once again in my lifetime.

Mr. Hawaii Mike: The sound of liter+ kawi's into a bassani was like barry white singing cannibal corpse. Freakin' awesome... Do you still have any left?

I know that this isn't 2 stroke oriented but...

Here's a pic of a hand bent Bassani that's on an old Cycle Tune track bike.

Halcyon days indeed.

Just saw judas priest on their 50th anniversary tour. They killed it! The set list was incredible, Rob's singing was a little rough but still very good. Hell he is 70 years old!

Thank you so much Brother! The Lonnie Mack is a hoot to play (baseball bat neck and all) and the Bigsby is
pretty surfadelic :thumbs:

While the smart kids in the neighborhood had savings accounts, me and my delinquent friends however...

Cheers!

UFO is great for sure. VERY underrated/recognized.

side note, last night:

:olaf:

note the drum set for opening band Sabaton: 2 big yamaha logos on the 'tank' drum riser.

Nice! Now that's a drum riser!

Wish Algy Ward and the guys from Tank would have done something like that on the drums!

Lights out for UFO.

That was a helluva run.  How many original members are still out there doing it?

Man, I'm so stoked to see that people remember UFO :olaf: Saw them 27 times and
caught the last 2 shows in L.A. back in 2019.

Only Phil and Andy from the old guard but it was great to see Neil Carter return to
the fold after Paul Raymond passed.

Still am a huge UFO Head, hence the fascination with V's lol...

Cheers!

Joe

Sorry if this double posted!

My rz350 has been down for almost 10 years (and will hopefully be up and running within a couple of months).
The funny thing is that when I was on the road with it, 9 times out of 10 the guys who would flag me down
were riding Harleys... The conversation usually started off with something along the lines of "Hey, I had one of
those when I was a kid". Never had any derision or condescension (and this is in SoCal to boot...). Maybe I've been
fortunate but the people on motorcycles I've encountered while on my dinosaur have been pretty good folks. Hearts
definitely in the right place.

Nice!

Unfortunately it's not "on roster" here in california (along with nearly everything else...)

Take care

Hey Evans

I can't speak directly to the biometric safes but I do have a couple of safes with e-combination locks
(Absolutely detest them). Anything that takes a battery (like the biometric) you'll have to be extra diligent
about keeping fresh batteries in them. The minute the battery voltage drops, you're instantly locked out.

Another side note with regard to biometric print readers: my last company used one for the time clock. It would
not read employee fingerprints about 10% of the time.

Just my observations. Thanks and be well.
