    Traded the '67 Bearcat for a '76 Chevy 3/4 ton 4X4 lifted truck.
    On the way home in the truck, I lost a rear wheel doing 65mph in the rain! All 8 lugs popped off at once! Crazy story...
    I got it home, its cool

    For bike guys that care, I got a complete '84 Honda CB650 engine that looks good under the valve cover for $275 from the local boneyard

      ^ that boneyard engine was bad, would hit 1st gear but nothing beyond that, tranny messed up.


      I've got different pistons/cylinder/head now and gaskets on the way, I'll see if I can get my old motor rebuilt and running..

        That blows. You get your money back?

          yeah I got my money back

          and I built a new cb650 engine, got it running ok

          in the end the CB650 had a bad high-speed wobble. I parted the bike out, but I still have the frame and engine..

          I drive around now on an '82 Yamaha XT550 enduro
