Sick the Jags on him. Pretty well seems the guy's a misrepresenting, duplicitous douche.

I was actually advised by both the Alexandria BAR and the Alexandria Tenant/Landlord relations office not to involve the military legal team simply because they are not the most adept at local issues such as this.  I don't know how the guys at Bolling are, but the ones at Hickam weren't the sharpest tools in the shed...

PICS?!

Pics or it didn't happen, eh?!? ;)

I was actually planning on riding it over to the meetup today, but the carbs (FCR 41's) just dump gas from the overflow. Probably a stuck floater... and the fun has just begun! ;D
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

Speaking of babies, here's the new family member:



Cleaned out the carbs yesterday: fixed the stuck float, it no longer pisses gasoline!

Of course, the fun cannot end just yet! On the way back from the gas station last night this happened:



I was pulling nicely from a light, enjoying a gentle ([evil]) acceleration when everything just shut off. I was able to wedge the broken wire between the battery case and the connector and it stayed there long enough to ride the bike back home.

FUN TIMES!  ;D

Nice.  Is that the stock color scheme, or was it re-done?

Not a clue. Neither does the previous owner have one.

The bike has an aluminum swingarm, adjustable forks and tach which made me think it might be a 900s... I'll have to do some research.

I remember seeing that bike on CL or maybe Fleabay before...I think last fall...it is NOT a stock scheme...it was repainted/modeled to mimic a Superlight SS...nice bike, but at the time I saw it, the guy was shmokin something good when he was asking nearly $6K for the bike.


congrats on the new to you purchase though!!!
