OK, just talked to HB, he figures we could do it for under a grand with some mods, which would be great. Then he had had a even better idea, turn it into my extended warranty. I think I purchased one and it should cover the damage.
This is what happened. We went riding a couple weeks ago after Jenna got out of the hospital. We took one of her friends how has never ridden before. She rode the whole day in 2nd gear. The bike started to smoke and had used up about half of its oil. The shop says it needs new piston, rings, bore the cylinder, the rod is blued, so the crank has to be replaced as well. basically they want me to bend over and take it. The bike cost me $3200 and they want $1900 to just rebuild the engine. Something seems wrong with this picture.
Thanks

Well, that would also depend on what size bottle you are buying. Some of the small ones are plastic but if you are buying in bulk(is there any other way?)they splurge for glass. Not quite sure I understand the logic on that one. You would think the larger the bottle, the more motivation to have something unbreakable to contain it.

There will be Pendelton and the Party, but I can not remember if you still are on the "sober" thing or not.

Hey all. It has been a long time since I've posted. I am in between houses and have limited internet. Did I see a few days ago there was some talk about a ride the week between x-mas and new years? That is around the time we are moing into our new house (if it's done by then) but really need to get out and ride. I'll be moving down to the maple valley area, so if any of you are locals maybe you can show me to the nearest riding..
Later.................steve
