What is especially sad is when all contents of a home are destroyed.
Artworks cannot be replaced with insurance money.

Bronze sculpture will survive if it is not stolen and turned in for scrap.

I am an artist and have 200 of my best drawings in my home. If I lost those
It would be like my life never happened.

Put a few of 'em up Lucky.  Your favorites. I know I'd like to see a couple.

If not here maybe over my place? cyclebytes.com?  
It's a bit more generalized.  You seem to know bikes,
like a lot of guys here at 750Honda, and are more than welcome to stop by.

And yeah, yer right.  I get pissed at all the hassle that goes with this storm stuff,
but when you see people on TV lose everything, heck even around here,
it kinda brings back a bit of reality.  

Compared to Staten Island, NY, this is a cakewalk here in West Virginia.

Bike ran great.  Well, it did load up a bit putting around the lake, redlined once or twice
and took care of that.  This thing loves the cool air.

Snow?, around here we have 4 seasons Piute.
Winter, winter, summer and then winter.

Slickest thing out there is the gravel that's washed out
all over the place, and the mud on the tires from stopping
on the shoulder to grab a pic.

Turbos, Hondas, 4-bangers, what could go wrong?

 Nice photos.

  With those conditions it is better to install "mud flaps".  The water, salts and pebbles flying off toward your headers, engine aqnd body will eventually marr the finish and invite rust.

  Cool bike. In fact Honda sold many CB"F" bikes all over the world with factory long rear fenders.  I guess those went into wet, snowy of tropical lands.  Seen them,  guess in UK pics.
