    Hey, Kat, been taking lessons from Tod?
    Obviously not PHOTOGRAPHY lessons! And in my defense.. she completely destroyed this bulletprooff motor BEFORE she met me. So.. I'm blaming HER for all the engine problems I have had!

        Ehh... Looks OK.. but it's too bad you couldn't find a CLEAN replacement motor.


        Looks really sharp! How many miles.. where'd ya get it... how much.. do they have any more? lol.

        Nosey, ain't I?

                Man, I remember sending you a link.. But was it just the motor, or was there a parts bike that went with it? I've slept since then..

                  it was a complete bike......."needs carb work and will run" the fron forks were bent from a wreck and someone spray painted the tank, side covers and frame silver......(not all that well) i put my carbs on it drained the oil extra oil(was filled to the top, i mean the top). it started and ran fine. but it would die randomly cause there was a short in the ignition.........

                    Carb cleanup

                    Get them either soda blasted or dry ice blasted, friend here is doing up GSX1100 and has used both methods on various alloy parts, works well

                        Well good. I was afraid I'd sent you a link to just a motor.. and that would have been a bit much. But not so for a bike! lol.

                        I hope it works many miles for you.
