Bumblebee owner saying hi

Hi all, I think I joined the MOA for a year or two when I first bought my brand new Bumblebee back in 1988, but I haven't belonged since. I'm riding it more now and I find that (surprise!) it's now a vintage machine that shops generally won't work on, or can't get parts for it.

It only has around 36k miles on it, and is in pretty good shape. About 20 years ago I laid it down on Page Mill Rd above Palo Alto CA, so the right side has a few scuffs from that episode. I need to get the seat re-covered, and I'm sad that I'll lose the original factory logos on the seat cover.

Here are some pics of it, from last fall--oops, the pictures are apparently too large so the site won't let me link to them or upload them. Oh well.

Good to be here!
 
Glad to have you in the MOA and on the forum! As for the pictures, yes, they do need to be maximum size...they can be as big as 300-400Kb but I think the issue is the pixel dimensions...800 wide by 1000 tall. Microsoft Paint can be used to resize the image if you want to give that a try.
 
OK, here is another try at uploading the two pictures then, thanks!

Love the bumblebee. Hard to believe 1988 was 26 years ago. That just ain't right!
