Xovaan
the literate few
Spiketrap ran out of gas a few minutes south of Alice's on Highway 35. Black/red SV650. Anyone able to cruise up and help him out? His signal is crap so I'm posting for him.
Thanks in advance!

OK, situation handled... Xovaan is heading out to bring him some gas, and saving me the lovely scenic drive up the Hill (why does it seem so wrong to be up there in my truck??? 
)

Can you do me a favor and edit my number out of there? And mega thanks for being ready and willing to help me today!
Hey all. Just pulled up to my job after lunch, and while sitting there, i tried to go from neutral to first (and neutral to second, justto try) and the bike died as soon as it got into gear. Tried to give it throttle and take off, but bike still died. Just gotthe bike, laid it down this morning and what i think is gas came out, about 1/2 cup. Bike wouldn start straight off, but dId about an hour later. Been having some start issues (couple tries to get it going, bike needs full choke for a while, sometimes died if clutch is in and rpms drop to idle). Ive got the stock toolkit and little bike mechanical knowledge. Phone is 510 326 2847. In oakland/berkeley (rockridge, right by bart). Any suggestions?

This thought actually went through my head, but I wanted to give him more credit than that...
At least it works now.

I'll forward it on to her. I assume CalTrans just gets him off the bridge, so he'll need a lift from the end of the bridge?

CalTrans will get him off the freeway, but not home. Let me send some messages... also, while I think i have Jimmy's number, please pm it to me just in case, along with where CalTrans is going to leave him.

Is this SPDT Jimmy we're talking about? I get off work at five but I can't leave any earlier or else I'd jump at the chance to help him. If no one else can get him before I will head his way with my truck.
CalTrans will bring him to Seventh and Harrison (designated drop spot) and I can pick him up from there, too. I know because I was recently towed by Cal Trans and this is what I was told.
