    ah...sort a closer, the 700 consumed alot of my time this past year and after I completed it I took a small hiatus and enjoyed some riding. With the holidays almost behind us , the 1100 is now on the front burner. I have been gathering parts like a pack rat.

      Yea no need to push. When I was doing mine between the top end rebuilds and the GSXR conversion some of the Rallies were starting to feel like old time pushs for getting ready for flight tests. Always a bit stressful

                        Wow. That is outstanding work. You have given me a goal to reach because this is pretty much what I want to do with mine. Can I bug you with some questions?
