Yo Bob... here's a picture of the bike. I am almost sure I can simply hang my rolling walker upside-down over the chrome rack on top of the backrest! I'm pretty recovered from the strokes but still need the walker or cane. At this point I have it stripped down with the carbs off, ready to pull the engine. Going mostly by the book..... slowly.
To give you some idea of how BIG this thing is... that's my son on front. He's 6'4" tall. Behind him is my nephew, he's 6'2" tall. Four cylinders.. like a car - 1200cc. The saddlebags and the big bag the walker will hang from have all got handles and are actually SUITCASES! FM stereo w/cassette. After all, it is a 1984 model.
THIS is how I plan to get to one of the reunions, pow-wows or whatever in Phoenix. My guess is early spring or whenever I can trust myself on it. 1000 miles, 45 mpg but what a sweet way to fly!

Nice ride, Ron! Looks pretty comfortable, I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of it.
:~)
Ron...
I've had a car smaller than that... 1100 cc dodge colt. I love a big bike for getting out on the highway, comfortable, you can take enough clean sox and underware for a long trip and less vibrstion and fatigue... Just keep the shiney side up or you may have to call in a crane to right it. LOL
make it go Bro
