I have been fortunate in life, it has been well rounded. I remember the day in my mid twenties that my ex told me it was time for me to move on and I left Arizona with everything that I owned in the world on a 1976 Harley. I made my way towards Ohio because I knew someone that owned a spot there and would have a place to park and hopefully enough work to get enough money to start over. It was the worst time in my life but it worked out. I was down to just enough money for gas to get me to where I needed to go. I stopped on a country road and walked through a few trees and the sweet corn was just getting ripe and I picked an ear and ate it raw. When I exited back to the road I was met by the farmer who asked me what I was doing. After hearing the truth he took me to his shop as a place to stay and fed me. He put me to work fixing and readying equipment. We still keep in contact to this day. I went on down the road and met my wife that I have been married to for 30 years and we have a nice home, I am now retired after 23 years with the same company and I have a number of motorcycles. including the 76 Harley that I made my way into life on. I still club race, have done 8 sanctioned races so far this year. The secret is as we get older and slower so do the bikes I race. Motorcycling has been my life and will continue to be until I can no longer breathe life into my body. 26

I am not sure what they wanted to convey with the name "Nevada".... a "high roller" maybe?
Possibly if they want to convey a tough, in your face" street- wise" image, they will debut the Moto Guzzi V 100 New Jersey ? I personally think they should build the Moto Guzzi V 100 Arizona Stone! Rick. 27

General Discussion / Re: never heard of this happening before...« Last post by jamesfjamesf on March 28, 2024, 09:21:12 AM »I've seen this a few times, mostly it was the worn/rusty ignition switch that didn't release so kept the solenoid engaged. But I could see a faulty solenoid or even sticky goop on the starter gear shaft causing the gear not to retract while under load.
