The Original Old Farts Club

[Wannabe_Biker]

I have an old BMW K bike an 85 K100RT I have owned it for 27 years and it is in new condition.
Last year before I parked it for the winter the starter stopped engaging. It would spin but not turn the engine.
The sprag clutch had failed and needed to be replaced.

I ordered the parts and when they showed up I took the bike apart to replace the sprag clutch. Its a big job,
it took me 14 hours and I am a mechanic. I had the bike almost all apart when it slid off the blocks under the engine and tipped over damaging the fairing. I was pretty demoralized. I went in the house and drank 8 strong beers and ate 2 cannabis cookies.
A couple days later I went out to the man cave and finished replacing the failed part and put the bike back together.

Yesterday I took the damaged fairing off and today I took it to a body shop and was quoted $1577.00 to repair and repaint it OUCH!
I told them to go ahead and do it.

A bike without a ding is a prissy puss-y.

good to see ya Boo.......Tiger is lucky to be alive and depending on the extent of his injuries , his career in golf may be over.

speed , drugs , alcohol? I have not heard what really happened and I doubt we will ever know unless a video pops up showing what exactly happened..

Wal s**t, that sucks! Sorry for your pain brother! Nice scooter!

A BMW was the first bike I rode where the mirrors weren't twitching with the engine beat.

Good morning my old fart bros. How ya'll be today ? All vertical, I hope. Morning means coffee and a session of "wake 'n bake". Ready ? It be Puffin' 'n Passin' time. Here ya go.

Went outside in the warm early sun, and there was Fancy Pants sitting on my split rail fence.

Took the pic, and he hopped off and came over to me. Followed me all the way around the Chateau to the back where I have a plate of oilseeds for him.

But before he ate even one, He decided to puff up and dance for me.

Morning OFC. Another round of snow is moving in later today. Could get up to 8".

@walt. Can you explain what you meant with the $$ graphic..I know it isn't good but can you put it in your own words.

Any more on Tiger....the word so far is he was late to a televised golf lesson and lost control speeding go get there.

My back is starting to feel better. About time. Maybe I can get my chores done today.

46 here with wind. White stuff is heading out. Looks like we're about to enter the mud season.

 

[Rudedude]

Have a great night OFC, it's time for a cookie and some pot smoking.

@walt. Can you explain what you meant with the $$ graphic..I know it isn't good but can you put it in your own words.

The COLORS of the "real" currency are exactly the same as MONOPOLY money!! Just how in the heck this could be coincidence is beyond comprehension.

The colors are the same for MONOPOLY money denominations.
