thats cool mark if it wasn't for you and a handful of other KLRistas
I have no doubt that a bunch of us newbies would have gotten into
all kinds of trouble. I've said thanks before but I'll say it again.
THANKS!

I'll second that Mark, if you ever put a donate button on your page, I
would sure contribute to help out with your hosting fees.

A gent on the list is selling his LOADED A15 on the list right now for
$3,800. Did ya see it? He is selling it because he just bought a new house.

Thank you gents. The thought is sincerely appreciated, but the donate button
won't ever happen. (I get a surprising number of emails suggesting it.) As I
always explain, the website is all about helping out. The list was THE main
reason that this confirmed Honda man was willing to give the KLR a shot. It
seemed like a KLR would better suit my purposes, and I could see from
lurking for a few weeks that the listers could and would help a guy. I'm
just "paying back," sort of.
Thanks again,
Mark
