I'm stupid busy this week or I'd crash your party! :p
Last I talked to the Pav's organizers they were not even considering bringing the show back 'till spring. 🤕
'78 Gold Wing (cafe'd)!! Many of us in the cafe/vintage scene have talked about building a "buffet" racer from a wing, but I've never actually seen it done. Well played. I was actually thinking of going that route with my Max, but... maybe not. I organize a cafe racer group here in town...
Dig it... I kinda like the center stand for fuel-ups, but I don't like it enough to carry its prodigious weight. 😉
Besides, I'm betting the exhaust I get will require the removal of the center stand anyway. I mean, if you're doing an exhaust, it just makes sense to tuck it in for ground...
Excellent advice!
It's got a wet cel battery in it at the moment that needs to go. I need to do a little research and check charging system specs before I decide on a battery.
The exhaust, although I've not had it off yet, has got to be a boat anchor, so it's definitely going.
The wheels...
Hi, my name is Pete and I'm an alcoh...
Wait...
Wrong group.
Hi, my name is Pete and I'm new to the world of V-Max.
I've been lurking for a bit, observing, learning and, now that I've started to comment on posts, thought I should say hello.
I'm more of a sportbike/cafe racer guy, but...
Hmmm...
This sounds interesting:
