    Atlanta Airhead Old's Cool Pity Party @ the Arizona Pub, Wednesday, 12/14, 7:00ish
    This thread is an off-shoot from hardwaregrrl's recent rear frame issues, and it turned into a pity party, so...

    Bring your stories of misery about Airhead maintenance, custom fabrication or whatever pisses you off at the moment.
    Un or underemployed stories welcome too!

    Who's all coming? :ear

    coming with a pity story (as of 12/13):
    MoMan
    hardwaregrrl
    bgoodsoil
    baldwithglasses
    careboy
    beater
    Ritebike
    blain.hale

    can't decide on their pity's worth:

    Yup. :D It started @ the seller's shop but then after a trailer ride home in the rain it was hard starting & wouldn't fire on both cylinders. Tons of surface rust, starter & headlight work rest of electrical stuff doesn't. Nothing really missing but lots that needs soap, sandpaper & flat black rattle can. I will try to bring photos of my non-airhead projects that I need to unload (nice 1975 KZ400S that's nearly finished ; 1984 Honda Passport motor swap) - free beer for anyone that buys one! :deal

    I am in, Jenna, shoot me a text or call me to remind me on Weds. I am celebrating my birthday this weekend, and don't expect my memory to retain anything.
