Still alive....lol
It's been a while since I have posted anything so time for a quick update. It was a rough year due to some medical issues and I just stopped using the comp about 6 months ago..... it is funny how fast you don't miss the whole on line thing if you just turn it off for a bit....lol
Anyways back on track... had the surgery in mid Oct. ended up being 10hrs on the table and then a week in the hospital but things turned out well and I and finally off of the post op restrictions and am actually feeling pretty good for the first time in years.
So while it wasn't a fun year, things have ended well and I will try to remember to check on line once in a while.....
As for the bike...actually went for a ride last week..... the new engine is a beast but that is for a different post
Merry Christmas and have a great New Year. =)

Loud pipes don't save lives, knowing how to ride your bike will save your life.

Good to see you back with us. Merry Crimbo.
It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Good to see you back Mike
I'm so unlucky that if there is such a thing as re-incarnation I'll come back as me!
Re: Still alive....lol
Merry Crimbo Mike and here's hoping for a better year for you. Well, not just for you but everyone really. I know what you mean about putting the computer down though I find it difficult to go completely offline. The Internet is like the most addictive drug in the world. Where else would I do my shopping and communicate with others. Glad to hear that your feeling a whole letter better.

Welcome back, glad you're OK.
Seems slightly odd saying that when I have no idea who you are and vice versa but I must have read pretty much every post and comment you've made on tuning the 'storm. So even though I don't know you your advice is very much welcome . Even if I never have the balls to actually try any of it.

Welcome back Mike
I'm very glad to hear it's good news on your heath. I knew you hadn't been on for a while, although I didn't realised it was so long.
A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you also, thank you,
Chris.
