Title: Kamloops to Pitt Meadows.
Post by: rz5mark on July 30, 2023, 02:38:44 PM
Anyone going between Kamloops and Pitt Meadows who could transport a small bike 79, Yamaha MX175. Buyer would likely pay you for transport but would have to be worked out with him.

Mark do you know if it is a rush or not?    June and I are planning to be in Kamloops in a week or two to bring a pick up truck down here for a friend and we live near Pitt Meadows so there is a chance of us moving it here.

I don't think he's in a rush. I will contact and see if this might work for him. Thanks a lot.

Bill I went through a tough time and have been slowly getting my health back since December when I came back home.  Have yet to ride a motorcycle yet but every day things change for the positive.
Hope to see you soon.

John

Just one step at a time.   Hoping to get a small bike ride or two in by wiinter.   Just waiting for Junes approval as she wants me to be a bit stronger and have my balance back.

I'm riding with a sidecar these days.  My excuse is to bring our dogs on trips.  But my. secondary reason is to not have to put my feet down and steady the bike!  The ride is the same except for corners.

Good idea Bill a couple of our bikes are very heavy and a bit tougher to maneuver at slow speed.  Having a tough time getting my leg over the bikes so glad they do not have sissy bars or they would all be lying on the ground here.  Likely with me underneath them all!

    I got to ride a Ural a couple weeks ago. Quite the rig, i'll offer the comment that a sidecar is unique in vehicle classifications, no way it can/should be considered a motorcycle.

It registers as a motorcycle in BC. 

John, I had the same issue throwing my leg over the seat before I had my second hip joint replacement.  Now...no problem.
