Yeah! What Keith said!


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

New tins



Edited to a link as the image was too LARGE, then edited as Dave indirectly gave us the location of a smaller image.

Looks really good, Dave. I think you missed your calling as a bike builder.

I had thought maybe keeping it stock might do better for resale (the "i used to have one just like it" market)- but that works really well on that bike! Great Job!

Great job Dave. I love your paintwork. Hope you get what you deserve for it. Probably not the best time for selling but someone's going to pick themselves up a sweet little ride.

you know guys, I can't believe that this bike sat on the showroom floor for like a year before it sold... ended up getting 2100 for it, still only had the original 250 that I paid for the bike in ti, and split the profit with the my buddy that owns the shop. It was his engine, parts, oil, battery, etc., plus the hassle of selling it. Not too bad since I only had about a week of work into, pretty much going solo except for the paint. I just collected my check for it last week. I should take the money and buy another bike, but my America still needs some parts upgraded
