    Infected with the hotrod disease

    You see that hotrod part you can't live without...........

    Maybe a crank, transmission, head or even a set of cases and you just have to own them. But you already have 3 of them under your work bench and you'll go to your grave knowing you'll never use them.

    Now I know how the wife feels when she's in a shoe store

                  I don't believe there is any cure for the hot rod disease. But I have heard the though the application of a slow gatthering of parts can you supp side the disease and keep from going completely insane.

                      What did you buy now? Or do you just have your eyes on something?

                      I heard on the news that they had isolated it to the be caused by a mutated gene in the Y chromosome. Bottom line, it's not your fault....

                                                      Definite cure for that part of the disease - put your helmet on, throw your leg over the seat and start the engine.

                                                      Head out on the highway................ you know the rest.

                                                          Would one of those cranks under your work bench be welded and fit my 1100?
