      I will get you all a picture of my recent "BUY" and like Bill say`s just waiting on a bearing for the rear end. Just got the rear disc today from Blowerbike and it looks brand new. I have put the old man off to the side so I can get the dragbike ready for the season. I have to send out the crank to be rebuilt due to sloppy connecting rods from blasting with the turbo so... off to Gardner crank shop in Mass.

        I raced at BIR in 02 for the "BIG RACE" which was all bikes!!! I love that track and the people are cool as hell Where else can you "PIT" in the shade of a tree in grass and have Papa Johns pizza delivered to your pit on a quad...I had a ton of fun there.

          This is another old school bike but not the one that this thread is about. I just picked this guy up from a friend and am planning on racing it later on in the year. I just cut all of the vinyl and put it on the one piece body...enjoy. Oh if anybody is counting this is #13 that I have in my harem (lucky)

                  Kris,
                  That thing is Koowell .

                  Paint looks like if you shot a clear over it it would be really nice. I know that is a drag body, but never seen an EZ/ED with suare headlamp .

                  Wanna see it sometime.

                                I suspect that pipe is very loud .

                                Looks clean but why not rotate that clamp to the back? Practicing the art of "snag ology"
