Yes, but that will change. Plan is to return her to very close to stock and ride her. Discovered last night that a PO had put .25 mm oversize pistons in without rebore or even honing. Keeps me busy. Friend I sold Johnny 5 to says that I didn't know it, but I was building it for him all along.

Sold Johnny 5 yesterday to a good friend and started on a '76 RD400 that I picked up a couple weeks ago.

Big and bold will hold. 

The casual observer would never notice the original unless you brought attention to it.

I would be happy also, Hollie! A very attractive artwork.

Recently got my first tattoo in the US. Originally from New Zealand where I have three others. Super happy with the result, two sessions 15/16 hours total. Done at stained skin in Columbus Ohio. Excuse the swelling on the inside and outside of my bicep, that shits painful LOL.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Appreciate it. 

I always use a zinc based sunscreen which is the best for protection. But it’s also the greyest, thickest balm. Gets on everything like the op described. So now I wear golfing sleeves whenever I’m commuting or taking any kind of prolonged solar beat down on my arms. They’re really comfortable actually. Just google golf sleeves.

I guess someone had to make up “news” to meet a deadline.

I have two new pieces of artwork - an O'Donnell piece and a Garver piece!

There is a vintage motorcycle club that meets in Knoxville at the Time Warp Tea Room. For 2020 (before the virus thing) we have a challenge to put 20 old bikes back on the road. I found a '78 GoldWing that had been off the road for at least 9 years and finally stashed in a fence row. Drug it home, stripped it down and proceeded to rescue it. It is finally ready for serious road testing.

I named it "Johnny 5" because it is the 5th GL1000 I've owned.

Another GoldWing rescued. Bought in December 2019 from a fence row in Kentucky. Still needs paint and a front tire, but this derelict is a runner again after at least 9 years.

Many of the artists should be checking with hospitals and health departments. These are looking for people with experience in sterile practice.

Pretty damn clean, too. 
Getting on a motorcycle and cruising around would be a very decent way of mitigating this isolation and distancing times, too.
