    Is it that late already? I am busy drawing up a diagram to transplant a Honda left handlebar switch on a Kawasaki ZX1000 and did not see the time flying!
    I'm off to hit the sack now!

    I think I should mention a little pang of envy.....

    I've also got a line on a good looking set of cylinders to go along with freshly repainted cases. First I need to make a few wooden panels I can bolt on to protect the cases innards and passages from the blasting media.

    Have you seen Flyboys newest acquisition? http://www.ebay.com/itm/suzuki-gs-11...sories&vxp=mtr

    Very similar to shipping your windjammer. Only one slight exception, there's a bike still attached to it!

    Razzing or not, there is a bit truth in your statement; It least it starting to look that way. Oh, what have I gone and done to myself...

    Ed, you're next on the list... I NEED to post a picture of the rear rim I got from you.
    It just needs a redo of the clear on the outer edge and it will be a thing of beauty. Thanks again, it's a very nice piece.

    Not when you're going for a 100 point restoration like Dale is.

    I've got a front rim I plan on using from Chuck. A spare that's a bit gouged up from another member and a spare for that spare. Again, as eroded as it is, you're still welcome to it!

    Hahahaha, Doc, that is not what I meant, I just thought from looking at the pics, it was not so bad that it was beyond use.

    Sorry Stan, what was I thinking? I picked it out of rubbish and put it with the rest of your things. Shall I save the rear rotor for you as well?

    Wow, nice work on the rotors, making of a legend for sure.
