New member hello

Post by Dewey »

Hello all!

I'm new to this forum and wanted to introduce myself. I'm a gunmaker by profession (please make no assumptions regarding my politics, you may be surprised) and I've been working on bikes all of my life. I've been the keeper of a few bikes in my time, including a Monolever R100RS and a few K-RSs. I currently own a '93 K1100RS. I've done a fair bit of work that some on this board might find interesting. Some of it is detailed in blog form. I don't want to post the blog address until I know that it would be allowed. I don't know the etiquette and don't want to ruffle any feathers on my first post (or ever, hopefully).

Thanks

Dewey

Well, if you think that's a short row, then it would be a really short walk to the east coast. :lol:

Received it . Wow it's like a huge lolly shop !. Do you mainly works on S/Sides ? , there a few picture of Refurbishment's completed. Your work looks super neat , very detailed and as it should be on the old gear. Do you do any centrefire work at all or mainly on the old stuff.

Can any forum members advise if Dewey can list his blog details ?. You should see the bikes that he works on !. Only wish that he was one of my neighbours, my two favourite things in life and he does both of them !.The service on the ST3S is an eye opener :o , what was the owner thinking , more intake note needed :shock: .
