Thanks, he passed away almost 2 years ago. That was one of the last pictures taken of him before he got sick. He did really enjoy sitting on the chopper, guess he thought he was pretty cool

The details on my Dad's bike close up are really sweet, skulls painted inside of skulls and that sort of thing, also each skull on there is different. Very detailed work.

Mmmm, bikes. Two beemers at the moment, a 1981 R80G/S and a 2000 R1200C. My first bike back in the Cold Lake days was a Honda XL175. Great old hack to tool around the boonies on. Sold it in the 80s.

Cherry Grove Alberta in the 70s


The R80G/S qualifies for collector's plates so it's real cheap on insurance. I'm the original owner, bought it on my first tour in Germany with the Air Force. Still runs great and I have a 1,000cc kit for it but not sure if I'll install it, may invalidate the collector status.

Up around Oyama


Picked up the R1200C in Ottawa while I was at the dealer getting parts for the R80. I saw it on the showroom floor and got all weak in the knees. I lasted less than a week before I bit the bullet and coughed up the dough. Takes a llittle more washing/waxing than the R80, but it serves it's purpose well as a cruiser.

Diana, why not leave it matte black? And throw white-walls on it. Skinny up front and a fat B****** on the back?
