When I tore it down, I wasn't plannning on moving, having a home to 1/2 build, landscaping, and a job that has me away from home 3/4 of the time either.

I wasn't thinking I would have to build the engine 2x's as my mechanic left some pretty important details undone, then to have to be delayed 2 months as the turbo didn't fit.

After dealing with all that I shoved it in the corner pissed off.
Life is too short and I am away too much to ignore my family over a chunk of metal
That said, I do miss my bike.

FTW

Hey now!!!
My Lady friends can handle the results now that I've quit the saltpeter.
And even in the wet, a little throttle control handle the new found lowend.
Love those 3500rpm mini power wheelies.
