and took a couple of pics of my SVX. Posted one to my locker, Ebony Mica, stock 92 LS-L. Here's a link to make it easy if you want to look.

Something about palm trees and Christmas decorations I find mildly disturbing though

. Especially since it's 30F, two inches of snow on the ground and I just got done putting up some garland around the front door.

Hey Todd. I read yesterday that Detroit is no longer the most unsafe city in the US! Way to go! The most unsafe is now St Louis. Pittsburgh didnt make either the most unsafe or the most safe list.

What exactly is that on your antena?

lee · #5 12-08-2002, 11:38 AM

Antenna - a MADD (mothers against drunk drivers) ribbon - handed out at the gate entrance to work last week.

As for snow - my oldest child (27) went sking in Vermont last year with his girlfriend - if that helps. My youngest (14) has never seen snow in person, each year we offer to go north as part of Xmas, but he doesn't have it on his priority list (would rather have playstation 2 games, etc).

FYI, It's 84F outside today at 1:36 pm - just checked the thermometer.

Thanks for the warning, it's always great when somebody takes the time...in my case, it's there, the little chrome cap has come off, probably going to replace all the lugnuts soon, lost the same thing on the other side in the rear.

Thank you very much, i've been the owner for 20+ years now. Once upon a time I was going to sell it, but my wife wouldn't let me - this from a woman who has never ridden on ANY motorcycle - I gotta love her for that alone.

Huck, I took that pic while driving srusvx's car. That was just after I had filled it up, and the needle hadn't come all the way back up yet. Actually took that pic at the gas pump.

What are you guys talking about needing to fill up. I'll bet it's still got about 150 miles left in that tank. I don't usually fill mine up until the gas light has been on for about 10 - 30 minutes and have never run out of gas (in this car. . .)

I guess I shouldn't mention that I drove the Fiat convertable top down until about 5:30 PM this evening. Nya nya nyanya nya!

Have you ever noticed that the blue and red up/down arrows on the temperature control go out when you check the outside temp. I'm going to work on getting these to stay on so that I can also adjust the outside temperature up & down.

Whadoya think?

Sounds like your wife and the Norton are keepers

Oh.. so it's NOT a red Gecko dangling by his tail.
What happens when the antenna retracts?
