Sweet Tracy. You're going to be like a kid in a candy store.

Mark , Greg, when you began tearing into this thing you may be tempted to just remove one bolt on the floor board and swing it out of the way to get the outer primary off. Take the time and pull the floor board all the way off.
This cost me 2 beers worth of time on Tracy's bike.

Another 1000 miles and it should be ready for the drag strip.

I was also going to try to get the exhaust and floor boards off before Saturday as well. No need to wait if I can do it now. Now if I only knew how to remove the rotator girder

Yep, I'm pretty stoked about it!


Didn't get to do all I wanted to as I just ran out of money to spend on the project, but still should be a very noticeable increase in power to help move my big *** and some gear down the road!


I'm wondering how much it's going to effect my MPG
