looks killer. i do wonder how one is supposed to test drive it if it needs a new battery---

if he still has it by next weekend i might go look, too busy until then.

Hey Jetboy,
If you arrange a meeting with him on Sunday, I'll go there with you. Do you think he will take us serious if we both show up on our Sports?

he hasn't got back to me about sunday. i suspect he has more serious buyers lined up than I -

but if the weather is nice and your free id like to come down to your place phil - guy finally sent me the oil cooler nipple connectors(came yesterday), so im in need of that plate - for the 3rd time im using zip ties.

im also planning to hit hayward cycle salvage to dig around for a speedo cable and an electronic tach. the little harley speedo i got bolts right on, looks great- perfect fit for the space i had, but of course it has a different input connector. its actually the same thread as the output from the wheel - so i basically need a cable with mirror ends - should be around and if not im going to attempt to make one.

the scotch i promised will have to wait though- i gave up drinking for a few months as recompense for an altogether too outrageous winter break, so if we want to sip on it together, it might have to be summer!
