MOTHER This is a truly BEAUTIFUL piece please read this at a slow pace, digesting every word and in leisure...do not hurry....this is a treasure... For those lucky to still be blessed with your Mom, this is beautiful. For those of us who aren't, this is even more beautiful. For those who are moms, you'll love this. The young mother set her foot on the path of life. "Is this the long way?" she asked. And the guide said: "Yes, and the way is hard. And you will be old before you reach the end of it. But the end will be better than the beginning." But the young mother was happy, and she would not believe that anything could be better than these years. So she played with her children, and gathered flowers for them along the way, and bathed them in the clear streams; and the sun shone on them, and the young Mother cried, "Nothing will ever be lovelier than this." Then the night came, and the storm, and the path was dark, and the children shook with fear and cold, and the mother drew them close and covered them with her mantle, and the children said, "Mother, we are not afraid, for you are near, and no harm can come." And the morning came, and there was a hill ahead, and the children climbed and grew weary, and the mother was weary. But at all times she said to the children," A little patience and we are there." So the children climbed, and when they reached the top they said, "Mother, we would not have done it without you." And the mother, when she lay down at night looked up at the stars and said, "This is a better day than the last, for my children have learned fortitude in the face of hardness. Yesterday I gave them courage. Today, I 've given them strength." And the next day came strange clouds which darkened the earth,clouds of war and hate and evil, and the children groped and stumbled, and the mother said: "Look up. Lift your eyes to the light. "And the children looked and saw above the clouds an everlasting glory, and it guided them beyond the darkness. And that night the Mother said, "This is the best day of all, for I have shown my children God." And the days went on, and the weeks and the months and the years, and the mother grew old and she was little and bent. But her children were tall and strong, and walked with courage. And when the way was rough, they lifted her, for she was as light as a feather; and at last they came to a hill, and beyond they could see a shining road and golden gates flung wide. And mother said, "I have reached the end of my journey. And now I know the end is better than the beginning, for my children can walk alone, and their children after them." And the children said, "You will always walk with us, Mother, even when you have gone through the gates." And they stood and watched her as she went on alone, and the gates closed after her. And they said: "We cannot see her but she is with us still. A Mother like ours is more than a memory. She is a living presence......." Your Mother is always with you.... She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street; she's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks; she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not well. Your Mother lives inside your laughter. And she's crystallized in every tear drop. She's the place you came from, your first home; and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love and your first heartbreak, and nothing on earth can separate you. Not time, not space... not even death! PASS THIS ON TO ALL THE MOTHERS & CHILDREN YOU KNOW. MAY WE NEVER TAKE OUR MOTHERS FOR GRANTED... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

OLDRICE ASKS>>> Is it possible that one cannot install all three (four) items at the same time? I could have sworn that I've seen the PD Nerfs, the lower aluminum rock guard and the front guard (with the hiway pegs) all mounted on the same bike before. JACK RESPONDS>>> I have this setup on my 2005. PO put it on. The hiway pegs seem to be an integrated part of the front guard/PD nerf. -- Jack Bates Placitas, NM, USA I play Texas Hold'Em at http://www.fulltiltpoker.com

Your right, some of them are junk, other are ok. I am a service manager in a shop that sells the chinese knockoffs. If ya know what to look for, and what your getting, and if the company has decent support, you can get an ok machine cheaply. A few of the companies make the bike almost with the sam quality as the japanese. If you decide to get on, and have any quetions, feel free to ask, and by the way, stay away from the 200 enduro (the gy200) it is the biggest pos on the planet. BJ

[bj tidwell]

Well CH, turn and run, very very fast. They are both the same bike. They are the gy200 and gy150, both made in the same factory in china. We quit carrying them due to many many mechanical issues. We also have a few that had some catostrophic failures, ie snaped frames. They tend to last a 1-4 weeks before they are ready for scrap heap. I have seen crumbled clutch plates, broke frames and cooked electrical systems on the gy's. Stay away from them, they are not safe! If you looking to buy cheap, try to find taiwanese bikes, they tend to have much better quality than the chinese. If you go to a place and you have any doubts, ask to see the certificate of origin, will tell you where thay are from. Also, look at the frame and engine on those pics, they sometimes will change the cosmetics on them per different distributers, but the frame and engine is the same, and that funky egg shape chrome accent on each side, dead give away for a gy200. Hope this has helped BJ How good are kpx bikes from http://www.kpxmotors.com/motorcycle.html, I have always wondered if they are worth the price considering the opinions one hears. There is also a company out in CA that sells cheap bikes too http://www.minibikeimporter.com/dirtbike200ccenduro.html. Thanks CH Your right, we have the same problem here, I am a service manager for a place that sells the chinese knockoffs. Some of the are very good, almost up to japanese quality, some ar no better than paper weights. But, if ya know what to look for, and what your getting, then you can get a decent deal. If you are going to purchase any of them, and have any questions, fell free to ask, and Ill let ya know what kind of issues we have had in my shop. BJ
