I think I finally have all the toys I want. Next it’s time to start buying them for our little man!
A few weeks ago I decided to buy my Nephews dirtbike for Siobhan. It’s a Suzuki DR-Z125L. It should be more then enough for her to beat around on. It needs a little work, a couple bearings are shot, the rear axle is bent a little and the carb was full of crap. My brother cleaned the carb out for me and got the bike running. I have bearings on the way and the axle might be still usable. I don’t have any pictures of the bike yet (*GASP*) but you can be sure to find them here soon enough!
Last Sunday we took a trip to Stephenville to bring Siobhan’s parents out there and to check out a sport bike that someone was selling. I have been looking all year for the right bike for me. I wanted something yellow, green or orange, 600 ccs, at the right price point and I wasn’t buying a new bike. I had found a few bikes, but they were either more then what I wanted to spend, or they were sold before I got a chance.
I finally found a yellow 1999 Honda CBR600 F4 in Stephenville that met all my wants. We got to Stephenville and I drove the bike back to Siobhan’s uncle’s house that evening with lots of smiles on my face! The next day I drove the bike from Stephenville to Grand Falls without a problem.
Pictures of the CBR600 can be found in the Gallery!
Next year I am guessing we’ll start seeing mini-sized “toys” in the yard for the little man in the house!
