    That's why I always handled my own stuff. I know where its packed, and what it was packed in or with.

    After living in the same house for twenty years, the things I've accumulated. No way, big yard sale first.

    Thanks for the well wishes. Wife found what she lost. (Big relief)
    Until my in laws come to stay, looks like I might have my own bathroom and shave den! So, about 6 weeks.

    Cool. Are you going to have room for a shop or part of a garage? Some place to put tools and work on projects?

    The procedure to get a new frame from Harley-Davidson is to cut off the neck 1 foot back on the backbone of the frame & 1 foot down on the down tubes. I finished doing that day before yesterday. I then had to drill a lead plug out to get to an Allen set screw that holds the fork lock in & I got it out.

    The Motor Company always wants the section with the VIN back so that it can't be used on another bike. Apparently someone has done that before to title a hot bike or something like that.

    Got most of the stuff to our new apartment. Got to empty the old apartment and try to get it cleaned up. Got a cold from my 2yo daughter and my wife has a ton of work to do so I'm trying to figure out how to get it done in time. AND I e got to go to work.
    Can't find the flash drive that has most of my daughter's pictures on it.
    Hopefully I find it once everything is unpacked.

    Gonna a try a new (to me) hone to touch up razor later and see how well it works.

    If you hone a razor with tape, should you use it for touch ups?
