Thanks I-22 ..............
Back when I built the Indian AKA "The Redskin" I was going through chemo for Hodgkin's Lymphoma and then when my wife retired in Dec 2016 she was diagnosed with breast cancer six months after her mastectomy she fell and broke both her legs last Fri I had surgery to remove Basil Cell Carcinoma from my left leg so it has been a pretty challenging times and trying to work at the same time as well I haven't been able to devote much time for building bikes and keeping up with what's going on and posting in the forum hopefully that will change as our health is improving and thing's seem to be leveling out.

[truckd]
