Re-Introduction...
Posted: Mon Jul 27, 2020 7:52 pm
Hey All,
I just wanted to re-introduce myself since I'll be coming back to my first love, my '92 XJ 600S. I was on here for many years, and was on the predecessor to this forum before that (can't even remember the name of it anymore...), but I took a couple year break when I got a different bike that became my primary ride (then got donated when it stopped working and I had to move), then moved overseas for a year, and then moved back and did the job search, and am now settled not in CO as I thought I would when I last posted here, but just south in Albuquerque, NM.
I haven't seen my bike in a couple years, but it's at my parents' house in Denver, and they said they are tired of storing it and will bring it when they come to see my new baby as soon as COVID restrictions are lifted. I am super excited to ride her again.
On that note, I could use some help/advice. My parents have a truck they can bring the bike down with, but they don't have a way to get the bike into the back of it as they are older and don't feel comfortable pushing it up ramps. They tried once and failed. They are thinking of renting a trailer and towing it down here. Does anyone have any better ideas? I have tried to think of an easy way for them to either get assistance getting it up the ramps, or an easy way to lift it. Any ideas out there?
I will have some work to do to get the old girl back up and running I'm sure, so I will hopefully be posting on here again soon. And of course I'll put up some new pictures on my project page.
