If you get it running, will you come work on my bikes?

I am getting tired of building them.  :cry:

:o  :cookoo:

Send them to me? :)

You have seen my shop...top much stuff. But I have put up another rack of shelves for more parts.

That's right. You do have a lot of stuff. What's tiring you about building them? Just tedious work?

well...
tank is mounted... ran her around the block... the carbs must be gunked up so im looking at strippin them off and cleaning them again as well as looking into rejetting her again..
the bonus.. i know she is a little better running wise, when she does die she recouperates faster.. but is still annoying as hell wanting to rail and not having a bike that will cooperate...
grrrrrr  :mad:

It is more of the lack of time. With working 2 jobs, 7 day/week, I only have 2-3 hours at night. Then in 2 weeks I start a night class 2 nights a week. Then my g/f sometimes comes over late in the evening, gotta have time for her :icon_twisted:
Actually I have a lot accoplished since you were here. Both bikes are down to the small stuff. But I just keep changing what I am doing to the street bike. Now I am going to be using a 04 tank and 05 tail so now brackets for the sub-frame need to be fabricated.

Too bad, my truck and trailer are not big enough. Actually my ex-race bike is somewhere in your area. He drove from MN or WI to pick it up to race in CRA (?). He was winning with it until he blew the motor.

Have you seen my old bike?....
