Gammas Galore

#1 Post by silverstrom » Tue Sep 03, 2019 7:19 pm

My good friend Stray Cat returned these to me today. Both were mine before going to him and they were in his collection for a few years. He did a terrific job restoring both. Thanks Dave!

Great work as usual Dave. Suffice to say, both of you are equally talented and afflicted. Congrats on the repo John!

Thanks Dan. I repo'd the Hawk GT 647 in the process.

Is it the 3rd time we've swapped that one John ? The going joke is that the bike has covered more miles in the trailer going between us than either of us have ever ridden it.

I've had it in my collection twice and now you have it for the second time. Neither of us has ridden the bike. 3rd time is a charm!

As I am now working less and feeling gracious I will offer my services to ride any of these bikes as needed if either of you are feeling guilty. I'll even buy the gas.
