Heck, yeah! Though I really liked the High Dive Bar. Great seeing ya.

Dude, your skills were much appreciated. Though my BMW mechanic buddy was greatly saddened that you didn’t read the manual or watch the videos he sent…🙄

OK, the BMW shock came in last night and Tom buttoned it all up today. Huge thanks, TNTMO. Afterwards, we stepped out for a bite to eat and told many, many lies about our riding prowess.

Wait…what?! KLR rules!

Got it! Thanks.

Info, please!

The Kug! Were having coffee in Santee tomorrow and I’ll set up an afternoon beer meet up, too.

Tom is being modest. BMW says it’s a 3.5 hour job; he did it in under half that time.

There’s only one place in the country that rebuilds BMW shocks because they’re not re-buildable —EPM out of New Jersey. It cost $260 to rebuild and it’s about $100 each way to express it over there and back. And an aftermarket shock probably would’ve cost me about $1200, and believe me I thought about doing that.

I’m pretty much heading east back to Tampa from San Diego when the shock comes back and it’s installed.

I wish. I’ll set up a quick meet and see who wants to toss back a cold one and talk rides.

I’m in town for a week or so. Will definitely make time for brews.

I’m in SD after a long Canadá/Alaska ride. TNTMo stopped by and removed a blown front shock from my big, fat GSA. While we were relaxing at DSM8’s place, new SDAR member Alex (A2) stopped by. Good times, great peeps.

Ride safe and have un in 2022! #NotTheKug

I sure remember that first one I did, in February 2012. Good times, great people. That was my ugly yellow GS, not yours! You’ll remember some of these faces.
