Re-Borne Old Trucker (long winded)

Nah, mine's right out there in the garage. Rebuilt all of calipers, new braided lines, new tires, had the forks rebuilt with the gold valve kit, and a few other odds & ends...THOUGHT it was good to go, but the forks started popping when I'd hit a bump on the 2nd ride, and by the 6th the fork seals were leaking again. Never did get around to tearing into it again, and I've got the wife's 1200 Sportster I can take out whenever I want to go for a ride. I really need to get the forks fixed so I can get SOME use out of those brand new tires that are begging to have the tread scrubbed off 'em.

 

Myself? Alright. Would love to reply more; at receiver now. Just got this alert, and KUDOS! HECKUVA glad to hear... it sure has been awhile!

More later, and you?!?!

Thanks for update!
