Rumor has it, you need to ritualistically sacrific livestock and throw virgins into an active volcano (in that order).
Or you can just PM him here like the rest of us. =)
We would NEVER waste perfectly good Virgins, by throwing them away!!!!

No, not board members. Ryan, Tech guy told me, as he has access to the list of people signed up. I did recognize a fella from Iowa though!
No progress since the last we spoke, but this evening I should be able to get a little bit done. Prime the oil, put pipe on, radiator, zap front sprocket on, and hook up wiring. I hope someone else can do leak down, compression, head cycles and dyno............................. cause I'm scared and don't want to be around to jinx it!!!!! lol

it'll go fine!
i wouldn't bother w/leakdown on a new head & pistons; my experience is that you need to run it for a bit before leakdown #'s stabilize.
why did you take the f sprocket off?? going to an 18?

I don't know why I took it off, but it was off when I was putting things back together. I realy don't know why I took half the stuff off that I did (novice). lol
I am excited, but nervous................butterflies in the stomach kind of thing.
I have not had the best of luck, three cam tower bolts stretched on me after the one broke off. I was about 15 in/lbs from spec when they started to feel funny like the one that broke. I pulled them out and the actual bolt had stretched (skinny toward the upper middle). At least I am missing only one clutch cover bolt out of the whole thing. lol

Talk about antsy, my bike wont even be ready and I am already thinking of just going to Berclair and pitching a tent and waiting on the rest of you guys. If anyone needs me to bring anything let me know. I am pretty sure that I have the closest home base and will be more than happy to do something besides wear hotpants and spill drinks. lol This is going to be a blast. Can't wait to meet all you guys and see your great bikes. I will be taking tons of pics and videos for those who won't be able to make it. Has any one heard where the flag is?
