Hello from Columbus OH

#1 Post by GreenRex » Thu Dec 01, 2011 12:52 am

Greetings all from Columbus OH. Irish transplant now living in the heart of it all these past 20 odd year. Recently came across a pretty decent RZ for 2300. Needs a bit of TLC but I think a good canvas to work on. I will be visiting often for advice. I still have a nice scar on my hip from the last Elsie I owned ( wheelie, back brake to bring it down, diesel on road, guess the rest ) :smt017

Oh my other children

Welcome from another RZ/ ZRX owner!! :smt006 Looks like you really got a smokin' deal on your RZ. Your ZRX also has some nice bits I see! :smt004 I'm guessing you are Mad Irish on the ZRX board? This board is a wealth of knowledge and you will enjoy it here.

Welcome GR.

Nice pick-up on the RZ. Looks to have been a great find for the price.

I live on the OH/WV border and also have a SD(faster orange version like yours)... :-)

Keep us updated on the rehab.

Have a safe trip down Saturday in picking it up. Get it road ready by June for Skeenah! I saw a thread on ZRXOA about several RZs coming then and I want to be a part of that too! :smt003
