My Billy Lane cut off all his hair. :-(Ok, so we rode for a pretty good while this weekend and about dark Saturday evening, we headed away from the lake towards our side of town. It was going to be cold (like 60 degrees lmao) and I wanted to be closer to home. As I pulled up to the stop light about four miles from the grill we had dinner at, I reached up my little leather covered dainty toe to shift gears and NOTHING BUT AIR. My dang shifter was gone.
Crap crap crap.
Sunday morning, we had a McDonalds breakfast driving with our flashers on, verrrrrry slowly looking for my shifter. Talk about motion sickness LOL...ick.
No shifter.
This is sorta like rolling down your window and tossing a hundred dollar bill out the window. If I didn't love that bike so much, I'd sell her rattle trap ass.
NOT... :)

Well, looks like you guys got yourselves a certifiable shifter stealer....yep I've heard about this before. They look for those shiney parts, and steal 'em right out from under your nose....see how good they are?? Well.....did you ever find it....or get a new one? WTH are ya gonna do when you need to take a ride to clear yo' head? Can ya steal the Milkmans? And....if ya did.....would it even fit....or work? Hey, don't leave a sistah hangin'.....wud up?
No, it wasn't stolen LOL, I shifted thru all my gears and then when I went to shift at the stoplight, NO SHIFTER. A very odd feeling, no doubt. Like walking down a flight of stairs and missing the bottom step, NUTTIN BUT AIR!
We bought a new one this morning, not sure if it will fit, looks like it. The fun part of riding old bikes, going to the yuppy Harley shop. As soon as you say the year model "19..." they cut you off. "That old bike, no we don't carry parts for it." Oy...
We are going to Bandera weekend after next, what's on your schedule, anything coming up for ya?
I wonder if ebay motors caries motorcycle parts for next time? I bought a car part cheap and was very pleased.
Don't know about the shifter but understand missing the bottom step. I missed the bottom 3 once and was carying a microwave. Needless to say the microwave was toast after that.
Ahhaha...I was reminiscing your story about MM losing his....thought there was a definiate pattern here. Bandera, eh? Thunder in the Hill Country? Hmmm......
Oh shoot....forgot I'm having surgery that weekend....JJ says it's a good thing I got him 'round to remember shit for me! Oh well!
Oooo...that sucks.
60 degrees? PAH! quitcher braggin!
Old stuff has more character. I wouldn't worry a thing about the yuppie parts peeps. That little scooter suits you.
That Billy Lane is HOT!!! I like the short hair. Kim has an appt tomorrow (finally after a year +) - wonder if he'd go short :) Doubt it.
That must have been weird w/o the shifter. How'd you get going again?
Oh and I thought of you Sunday morning while making pancakes :)
Billy is way hot!
Ummm .... rode, leather, shifter, crap, flashers, tossing, ass .... is it just me or is there a hidden message in this post??? :P
Barman, yes they do carry parts and there are many good deals out there. However, MilkMan is on vacation this week and I don't have or want to wait for bidding/shipping..so. He just got the new one on and it works great. And YIKES on the microwave! That sounds like a nasty spill.
Yes jyflol, I HAVE chased that sucker more than once. Sorry bout your surgery deal, hope it goes smooth. I'll have a jager for ya. :)
Shell, it did!
Crabby...did it sleet at your house this morning?? LMAO!
Lori, I agree, totally hot. I've met him before, TOUCHED HIS HAIR LOL...We didn't get it going again. I happened to be right at a gas station and pulled in. MilkMan's bike is just too big for me, I'm askeert to ride it, altho I NEED to for just this reason. Cuz he could have ridden mine home if I could have driven his. We locked it up, we knew the guy at the station, and then rode double on his to get our truck and trailer. You didn't threaten my cute Brandon with a spatula, now didja?
Sign, yes he is indeed. Smells good to. LOL
Damn Gareth, I think it's just you rotfl....
