New to List Re: abs light blinking

2000-02-24 Thread Mskwood32

Hello Everybody,  Just wanted to drop a note and say Hi to you fellow gts 
owners!   I just purchased a used new 93 gts 1000 with 1300 miles on it.  
Bought the bike from a friend in California and shipped it on the slow boat 
from California to my home in Maui.   Looking forward to touring around the 
island on my new mojocycle.  

My ABS light blinks once in a while  my friend had the Yamaha shop check out 
the ABS braking system and it is fine.  He was told that a sensor 
malfunctions once in a while but in my case it doesn't  hinder the ABS.

Why not stay on board?  You know the bike, and we know you.  You can
continue with your humor, etc.

We'll miss you Kurt. You've provided good input and have had a keen
sense of humor. It brings tears to my eyes as I realize, way to late,
that you had offered to do the faq for the GTS'sers after I brought the
idea up and I had volunteered to do it myself. Yes...now that I realize
how much tedious work and time I will have to spend doing it myself now,
the tears just flow...  >;^)

Hehehe...couldn't miss a chance to 'roast' ya one last time!

Take care, Kurt, visit once in a while!

Motorcycle Tour And Cruiser magazine

2000-02-24 Thread Kelly Cash

Does anyone subscribe to 'Motorcycle Tour and Cruiser' magazine?
I'm looking for an article which would have been published
after August, 1999 regarding the reunion of the Virago Owner's Club
in Galena, Illinois.

If anyone can tell me whether such an article ever existed, please
email me off-list.  

Many thanks,

 -K

Wish I were able to go as well but even though I'm close enough I have
to take care of my son this weekend. Hopefully next time. I might go for
a half day ride saturday morning though weather permitting of course ! I
rode in to work this morning and it was beutiful, clear skies the sun
was shining and traffic wasn't bad either. Hope you guys get to enjoy
the ride this weekend with a little luck it should be a blast.

Kurt, I am really very sorry to see an articulate member like you depart the list
but alas, you will always be our very own monkeyon2wheels. I here by declare your
moniker officially retired and placed on the center wall of the virtual GTS
