A message to "Davis" Re: T500
Davis,
Regarding your messages on the Suzuki T500 of mine, it seems that my emails are not getting through to you so let me address you publicly through here.
I’ll put the price of $3,000 on it, however, offers will be accepted. It will go on eBay as an auction so it’s hard to say what it will actually go for. It is not a practical rider as it is very low, nearly impossible to turn...
Photo Op with B.S.H. Magazine
Just met with a photographer from BSH Magazine, www.backstreetheroes.com to do a photo shoot for an article in the magazine with my Suzuki T500 bike! I’m really looking forward to seeing how it turned out.

Rats Hole Show - update
Got to the Daytona Waterpark for the Rats Hole chopper show this morning. It was ok, not as many people as I had hoped and they dragged it out far to long. But all was good, got some compliments and enjoyed other peoples builds. I’m hoping Bike Week 2011 turns out better.
Battlegrounds show canceled -
It’s not just the show I was planning to attend tomorrow that was canceled but the whole damn venue for the week was shut down. SO, I’m going to the Rats Hole show at the Daytona Lagoon Water Park, tomorrow, Saturday Oct. 16th.

Barber Vintage Fest - Day 2
Wow, what an amazing day! Never have I seen so many vintage, original, Japanese & British motorcycles in one place. The amount and variety of of bikes being ridden and for sale was staggering.
The swap meet was a huge success. I think I bought nearly a whole bikes worth of pieces-parts! I found some very cool stuff at fantastic prices. The Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club had a great show....
Barber Vintage Fest - Day 1
Made it to Alabama in record time this morning and arrived at Barber Motorsports Park by 12. Had an amazing time at the museum. I’m on motorcycle overload right now! Now to get some food and chill for the night, tomorrow’s going to be the big day! I’ll post some pic’s in a bit…

I give up ...
The Copper Devil, has been just that, straight from hell. My custom copper fender order was misplaced and is now, just going to be made. Plus my tank will not be getting airbrushed as I had hoped in time for the upcoming shows.
And now it seems that I just fried my new electronic Pamco ignition even though it’s hooked up properly and triple checked. But when a big spark jumps off a circuit...

Anonymous asked: Hi, Saw your eBay ad for the cool li'l XS 500 bobber you have listed. I maintain a small motorcycling website dedicated to bobbers and as soon as I saw your bike, I knew your ride would make a great addition to my "Bobber of the Month" section. I've taken the liberty of copying some of the pix from your auction page and am creating a page for "October's Bobber of the...
