Yeah, the wife wasn't real happy with me on my motorcycle too!  I wasn't racing, just on road riding.  I miss it, but I don't miss the buttheads that blatantly don't see you!!
Miss ya Dean (4THEWKN) & Kyle (KYOTA)!!

You're gonna be real happy with Toyota trucks especially a nice old '83. This is a good board too, lots of info, cool people and decent deals in the classifieds.
