Alisobob's Steelie
Alisobob's Steelie
Here's my '97. Never did much in the way of overhauling it .... Just one facelift, and normal maintenance.
Here she is , all cleaned up..
The day before her first "Dune" ride
After her "Facelift"
Here we are at Kennedy Meadows. We went Off road, Desert, Forrest, Duneing, everywhere together...... NEVER let me down, or was pushed back to the truck.....
We all had steelies back then.... Seems like a long time ago....
I think this is the last known photo of her.... But she lives on.
The motor is in my CR500AF/X
The Lewis clan has allot of her, spread across all their bikes.
Bruce has a little bit of her.
I think Zorak does too.......
She was a real good bike....

Ya know, I do....weldpro wrote:Bob,
Do you miss anything about the steelie as opposed to your AF? Just curious.

Imagine trading your highschool sweetheart for a supermodel
Imagine the new dog that replaced the one who just died.
Imagine moving into a new bigger house, because the smaller house where you grew up burned down.
Every situation listed is a "upgrade".... but you still long for the past. Its what makes us human.
I still own the frame.
If I build a new motor for the A/F, that motor is going back into the steelie, and we will be together agian.
Other than memories, the A/F beats the steelie in every way.
