Thank you for you kind words, Keith. I truly appreciate your encouragement.

Indeed, the RX3 is a wonderful little motorcycle. If God continues to bless me with good health, I hope to enjoy riding my RX3 for many years.

Spud, you have a God given advantage by living in Idaho, you get to hibernate for 6 months a year. By my calculations you should live to be 170.

I lived in Toronto for 11 years, so I know that I'm right.

Spud Thank you for your most excellent tutorials. You may make a motorcycle mechanic of me yet - or at least get me to the point where I'm not worried I'm going to have to try to bribe a fellow RX3 rider to help me put the bike back together I suspect I will be tackling the valve check sometime this holiday season....I have already printed out the excellent tutorials/threads from this forum for guidance.

Thank you, Sprite. I'm sure you will do well with your valve inspection/adjustment. If you have any problems, just post your questions here. As you know, many helpful people frequent this forum, and are glad to assist.
