so I burned my garage down..

I appreciate all the kind words. Shit happens, no one got hurt. Ultimately i saved my wife's RD200 and my ironhead took a hit but it appears it was only electric and oil lines that I need to redo now. The Bonnie will be resurrected, just a lot of time with a wire brush, steel wool, and a complete engine gasket kit.

I saved the mag which was cool. Firemen trying to drag me
Out while I was trying to wrench a
Joe hunt off while wearing my dogs outside blanket bed over my shoulders will always be a fond memory.

I talked to a few of the older guys around town about it and they didn't seem surprised. A short ride on amals and shaking the bike around even a little bit seems like a logical way to get a
Little fuel out of your ticklers. Backfire starts the flame which would normally just putter out but if you have a fuel line near there and the stars and moon line
Up. Then shit goes really bad

I just wanted to post this to say that we half ass a lot of things on these kind of bikes. But there are couple spots where you have to be careful. Run that electric and fuel good. Use your head. And be careful. Also that extra 50 or a
Hundred a year for extra coverage in a place that you religiously combust fuel, cut, grind, or weld metal maybe a
Good investment

Once again thanks for all the sentiment and kind words.

such a drag. I'm glad you're ok and that the house is still standing. Take my miles for sure. How'd all your tools hold up?

I lost my angle grinder, chopsaw, impact wrench, compressor, and drills. Pretty much anything with a lot of plastic.

All my wrenches and shit are a mess but survived.

Oddly enough when you go into my garage it's a shell of burn but there is a gleaming untouched Katy perry poster on the wall still. Very eerie. My showclass calendar survived Also but last issue went up in flames

So I spent the day cleaning up the bike. I stripped the frame down to bare metal, found a tank and cleaned all the engine parts etc.

Here she sits

looks pretty fucking good for being engulfed in flames.

I work fast when I'm pissed off

if thats the case then get it running.

im sure ill run into you around the city eventually.

Its coming along man..whats that redneck sayin....Get er done..lol

Pretty Ironic ...your user name...lol

glad you are ok and that you got the bike put back together

I need some plugs, plug wires and fuel line and umm oil. Then I'll give it a go. If it goes I think those mikunis vm32s will be a bitch. But they came off a BSA so who knows

I am in to donate my miles to a fellow Western New Yorker! Take, Take away the my miles Bill!

Damn dude, at least you made it out alright. Got pics of the Katy Perry poster? For science!

Blinding me with Science....hahaha

I'm in too. Take the little number of miles I have. Just glad you made it out safely.

Chin up man!

Miles comin' atcha man, I ain't gonna use 'em. Good luck with the rebuild.

Hey, I didn't get around to adding these all up yet but I'll try to do it over the weekend. This won't put a roof on your garage but it shows quite a bit of goodwill from your fellow 33'ers.

I truly appreciate all the good will from the people on here. Its been awesome. All the offers and support guys. Thank you

I don't even know how many miles I have because I block Flash, but he can have mine too (if I have any).
