Hey Chris, after watching the videos, that had to be very rewarding for you. The first time it came to life, the culmination of all that hard work and money. Were all happy for you bro. It is off the map for sure. No one's going to have any problem hearing you coming. Might have a hard time hearing after your gone though :)
You pretty much hit it. Its a battle inside to calm myself down... I just want to jump up n down. It almost braught a tear to my eye... when I think about it now and look at it in the garage... I feel all gitty inside... It's calling for me to put down some miles.

Another GREAT TRUTH!!

And my neighbors are pretty good. And it was only like 3pm on a Sat afternoon.

Thanks guys... I'm beyond pumped at this point.

And now due to Alhall I know how stupid simple it is to set the timing on these... well static timing and some minor adjustments beyond that. Big props to him for helping me out wrenching, Cav for the awesome milling work, Chopper Dave for wrench help n support, and all the support from the other michigan guys. Plus the rally behind me from all of you... thank you so much.

Chris, I'm betting that your whishing you were in south Florida right now :) I know I would be if I were you. That open primary is off the hook! I'm sure it pulls like Bitch with all that power going to the rear wheel now. I'd be all giddy myself. By the way, you do need to watch those shoe strings near that open belt Bro. ;) You may end up shreeding your pants legs as well but hey who gives a F nyway, do you?

Burnout... :lol:

I didn't get new tires... those didn't need breaking in! :roll:

Thanks for the warning about the shoe strings... but normally you would NEVER see me wear that type of stuff... that was just comfy clothes... plus representin BDB with the hoody!

Thanks guys for noticing I tried to include everybody!

Nomad... that would be great... but there is nothing up here... us going your way would be WAY better for good roads and scenery.
