I won't bore you with details beyond saying a truckload of life got in the way. Both bikes needed considerable work and time was short.
I've got my little Vulcan 500 buttoned up and running like a Timex. Went on a motorcycle camping trip to Lake Vesuvius last month and the weather has been general crap every single day since I got back. But she's running again - I have to remind myself I have a perfectly running motorcycle out in the garage just waiting. The Nighthawk gets torn down (AGAIN) this winter.
Just thought I'd say hi.
