    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      First ride and more pics

      Well I must say she runs a lot better and smoother now. Put just 25 miles on her and came back to take a few more opictures for you guys.

          Maybe an XS but not this one Todd. I just dont believe there are very many still left running. I may be wrong, but the consensus of all that I have talked to say its pretty rare to see one let alone a road ready one.

              Yeah...thanks Todd. I was focusing on the "suggested" Cafe project..LMAO. Glad you approve of the way she turned out....I do know where there is another one at the local bone yard if youre interested in a project yourself.

                    They certainly weren't a big seller for sure. Yours is the fourth one I've seen. Not so for nearly every other Asian brand and model.

                        HA HA greg. I dont think my scant little collection warrants a museum. Quite the difference from that opened up engine sitting on the bench Friday night..'ay??
