     When I was coming of age in the late 50’s Kohl’s Cycle Salvage was about my favorite place to be, kicking thru the weeds looking for old motorcycles, with bonus points for the odd ones.
    At that time Indians were so common as to be boring.
    I moved away and mostly forgot about the place, While I was gone the Japanese revolution happened and Walter Kohl got a building to put his cycles in.
    Was nosing about the internet and found this. Broke my heart for a couple of reasons.
    Open the link and look at some really great pictures 

    Originally started by a man who was a motorcycle dealer and enthusiast, Kohl's Cycle Salvage would buy bikes from other dealers who went out of business or take trade ins. Motorbikes were cheaper and for a time the business flourished, to such an extent that in the 1970's Kohl purchased this building to warehouse them. In the late 1990's Kohl sold the business to another man, who became ensnared in a tax battle with the city over the building....    less

  • tanzanitediamond Hey, can I have an A-Men to this!? "Men Don’t Know if they Want a Submissive or Independent Woman" Acamea Deadwiler Mar 28, 2019 Make up your mind, please! Many men have old-fashioned values based on traditional societal gender roles. Which is fine if both people are on the same page. They want a woman who is submissive and lets them make all the decisions. They want her to do womanly things, nuture them, cook and clean like their mee-maw did when they were kids. In turn, they take on the responsibility of the customary male role. They pay for everything, fix everything, pump gas and keep their little damsel safe from danger. That is, until they grow tired of it all and that cape gets heavy. Then submissive looks weak and clingy. Other men decide that this is a new, more modern age. These men say they want a woman who can hold her own. They believe everything should be 50/50 with each person pouring equally into every aspect of the relationship. They want to split the cost of trips and alternate who pays for outings. I’ve even seen some who defiantly buck the system and refuse to do things most would simply consider being chivalrous or a gentleman, such as opening doors. The thing is, in having a woman who behaves as an equal, many of these same men start to feel emasculated. Some part of them that wants to protect and provide goes unfulfilled.Women are expected to be a little of both personas, but not too much of either. From my own experience, what I’ve seen and the recounts of other women, I’m convinced that a large majority of men simply don’t know what they want. They think they do until they actually get it. Or, they put women into whichever box they find undesirable at any given time as an excuse to move on without feeling bad or acknowledging their lack of self-awareness. What’s worse is when none of this is communicated and men allow a woman to believe, or perhaps even convince her that she’s somehow inadequate. Most women would have no issue with pitching in on expenses if asked by a man with whom they truly want a serious relationship. The problem is that the request is often never made. Information about how one feels is withheld. Before anyone says, “he shouldn’t have to ask,” when wanting to deviate from a precedent that has been set you absolutely need to make that known. You can’t basically chastise a woman for pulling out her wallet at a restaurant, imply that you feel as though financial responsibility is yours, and then expect her to suddenly start offering to pay for stuff down the line. Women aren’t mind readers. Use your words. All it takes is a mention of feeling as though things are imbalanced and you’d like them to be more equal. As a man, if you feel like you’re exhausting yourself trying to please a woman, say that. If you want her to let you take care of her and be in control a little more, say that too. At least give the woman a chance to comprehend and respond. You have to remember that she’s operating based on the pattern that YOU’VE established. I developed the ability to stand on my own mostly out of necessity. I didn’t grow up with the luxury of being taken where I wanted to go or given what I wanted. I had to get it myself. I learned to practice self-care, to be resilient and persistent. My autonomy became a strength. So, I guess I am what many men would describe as an independent woman. Contrary to popular belief, as such I still want to rest sometimes and have a place where I can lay my burdens down. I’m perfectly fine with an alpha male who wants to take the lead. I love it, actually. As long as it doesn’t cross over into being controlling. An area where my independence has hindered me is that I’m uncomfortable asking people for help or anything else. So, it’s nice to not have to because you’re with someone who takes initiative and just does what needs to be done. It’s nice to be able to relax, let someone else do the planning, and not have to handle every situation on your own. I enjoy being pampered. I’m more open and relenting than I have ever been. Or maybe I’m just tired. Either way, I’m done trying to figure out what any man wants — and definitely not going to stress myself out trying to be whatever it is with each whimsical change. Part of the problem is that we even attempt to be a certain way for a man. It’s because historically, women have been led to believe that having a man is the be-all and end-all — even above being happy. So, we do whatever we think it takes to land one. My advice for the ladies who endure this ball of dating confusion is to just aim to be authentic. The right one will love it. I must say that I’ve met plenty of men who know exactly who they are, what they want, and communicate both clearly. Cheers to you, sirs. You are appreciated. There are also men who value a woman being who she chooses to be, instead of trying to put her into a self-serving package. I recognize this. You are revered as well. For the ‘others,’ I’d challenge you to figure it out from the inside. Usually, when we don’t know what we want it’s because we don’t know ourselves. Learn what you like, what you need and the person that you are underneath all that you’ve suffered through and been taught. Just don’t practice on the hearts of women while finding yourself.

    Look at Bates and try to get some Swat team boots or seal team boots. They feel like Tennis shoes on your feet and they lace up with a side zip. Great support on your ankles and very very comfortable to walk in....! I get mine at Academy Sports for 99 bucks.

    GoFur wrote... Wow, you knew your tire had a puncture and rode on it for a year, to me that is just plain crazy. Tires and brakes are the MOST IMPORTANT parts on the bike. Either one of them has the slightest issue I get it fixed immediately. Don't matter where I am or where I have to be, if I have a tire with any damage I get it repaired. I am not going to tell you what choices are right for you, but I do recommend to anyone else reading this... NEVER, EVER, NEVER ride on a motorcycle with a tire that you know is damaged!!! +100 on the above statement...! Ride to the nearest bike shop and have it replaced...period! I've listened to so many folks coming into the shop and talking about tires..hell, some of them don't even check the air pressure before every ride. Guy came in yesterday on a CVO Dresser and had steel belts showing..... said he had no idea, couldn't see the tire due to the bag lowers and extensions...dude, get your ass on the ground and inspect your bike.

    A 5th wheel would be the best in living conditions queen bed up, and don't need to move bike in and out to make up a bed in the garage area. A 5th wheel is going to be easier to back up, and manuver (sp?). However, you do lose your bed having the hitch back there. You can pull the plate after use, but the angles are still mounted in the bed. If you do go with a hitch mounted unit, spend the money on a good system and bump up your shocks (maybe with both options!)
