Default She's gone...

Ororo's new owner just picked her up. She was a magnificent bike, a great friend that taught me a lot. Both about how to ride and about myself. But with Yolanda in the driveway, she wasn't getting the attention she deserved.

Farewell, Ororo. Treat your new owner well and keep him safe.

Chin up! You've got lot's of pictures and memories, correct?

Maybe the new owner will grant you child-visitation rights? lol

Or, if he/she's not a squid, you can ride together, sometime.

Awesome.

She deserves to live out a full, complete life and teach everything she taught you to the next guy.

It's the cycle of life. Cycle life.

Yeah, though I'm fairly confident the new owner will mostly learn how easy it is to start without a choke. He's fairly competent

Was funny though after he got done with the test ride he said it felt like she was going slow... till he looked at the dash. Ororo was always sneaky like that, especially with the stock pipe
