          .......I've still got another sick one in the making......I am just ramping up for my next winter project. I have a complete LS1 motor that I have been looking for a donor to shove in. If anyone has a decent 86-up Porsche 944,968 that they would like to remove from their garage and replace it with my custom.....holla....chop

            Hey chop, I knew of a 914 around here that had a 350 in it...
            The big problem was the owner could NOT jump on it until third gear, as the car would go sideways from torque!

              I really hope he reinforced the unibody.

                  Damn that's a cool lookin bike!

                  That front sprocket sure looks small tho... and the carbs look kinda different too, are those Haynes or Fruit of the Lume.

                  Still wish I had the money to buy that one, would be worth every penny.

                    Time, Time, Time

                    I will get some more pics up this week. I have even done a few more things since I last posted.... The biggest difference is I cut and rewelded the 4 header pipes up another inch and rewelded pipe hangers to the frame and coated the pipes Black.....Now I can really hug the corners....I also put a new headlight relay with L.E.D. control button which almost doubled my Light output from the two beacons....If I get $4.5k for this rocket, I will be happy.If I were to spend the $$$ on a paint job, I wouldn't part with her so freely.....I really haven't made up my mind what rear swingarm I will be using on my latest one.....I may even go ahead and trike it out using a Yamaha Raptor 700 swingarm (It's a perfect match for the XS11 frame and chaindrive BTW).... who Knows....Anyways thanks for the compliments.....in the meanwhile, I'm going for a ride......

                      .......13T/42T......spins you right up to 100 MPH without breakin' a sweat..... I am using JP1 chain lube on the advice of Trbig and yes the product does work great, The chain whine is very low now after the application....and hasn't slung off after a few hundred miles in hot weather too.....

                              Thanks Chop...The Original owner kept it immaculate...and I've only had it since Jan of this yr.so I'm still getting used to it...its got alot of power and it can get away from you if you dont handle it right....my XJ1100 is a little easier and smoother to ride on the hwy.But thats prolly 'cuz the XJ now sports a Windjammer fairing.
