vacation or new location?
New location! I leave Korea in July.... as long as war don't break out...lol. Yeah I will be moving to Pearl Harbor in late Aug time frame.

Nice! Lots of chrome and I really like the front wheel, does the back wheel match? I'm assuming most likely.

Yes both rims are the same. The fat tire soaks up a lot of the road too. I really like it. SOOO much smoother than the one I used to have. It was an 85. I still need to be a little gentle on her for the first few hundred miles.

Man congrats Pete!
 
Thanks Lloyd! I have to admit that it's really my wifes ride but I plan on stealing it on a regular basis lol
 
I picked up a new fold-up red wagon at Sam's to haul groceries from the parking lot to my apartment. I also picked up a new pit chair for this weekend. My old buddies from the on-road racetrack told me that they found a new home, so I decided to go and heckle them like I used to.

Also ordered a scale winch at RC4WD for the ongoing SCX-10/JK project.

Wow... nice ass cruiser! Must be a smooth running machine. I thought my brothers was smooth, 1200cc back in the early 90's! Was like riding a couch... at 100mph! lol

Picked up some spare heli parts and a new bell for my buggy. WHich I think I ordered poorly. Didn't read, so assuming it's not hardened... it will probably last 4 tanks like my last one!
 
2 spur gears, fuel, body clips, glow plugs, and a new antenna tube. yep stocking up for the season

Are you still running FM/AM radio? Do your self a HUGE favor if so and make your next purchase a 2.4 setup. There are so many really cheap setups out there now that theres no reason to not be running one in my opinion.
 
New front door, new closet doors, and paint. Going to be busy doing house work for a while now. :)
 
Did you mean for that to be a smiley Mike or a frown? Lol. I hate house work.
