I'm sure Sean or Damon can point you in the right direction if you have issues with them. Damon's bike (one of them anyway) has these and they are unique sounding for sure.

I have a feeling it was less than the price of the carbs.

OK, you shamed me into it. $1250 and $150 in gas, so $1400 total. But I don't know if I should count the 300 dollar hotel room and 500 bucks my wife spent "sight seeing" and shopping in downtown Chicago? Oh well, if you if added all that up, I'd still be way ahead, and my wife is very happy I got it running tonight, and she had a nice "mothers day weekend" on the town. Happy wife, happy life, and I get to keep my other half dozen bikes too..........

Well, what can I say. This guy responded to my ad on Craigslist, didn't want to mess with the "normal" Craigslist crackheads in Chicago and wanted a safe, easy transaction with no hassles. We had talked several times before I made arrangements to go up and get the bike, and since the bike was still at his parents house, I think he felt obligated to make sure it was a quick, pain free transaction and it really was, his folks were great people and very hospitable. He also wanted to make sure the bike went to a good home, and I told him I planned on keeping this one in my personal collection, so there you go. Probably one of the best deals on a bike I've ever gotten, and I've gotten a few. I am the MASTER! unk:

That bike is crying out for the 43mm front end & 4 pot calipers I got for sale! :biglaugh:

He responded to my Craigslist ad in Indy, which is expired now I believe. I post in the big cities around here about once a month, Louisville, Cinci, Louisville, Knoxville, Colubmus, Lexington...........if it's within 12 hours round trip, I'll go get it!

hahahahaha I came across this ad!!!! where when how I do not know but I know I saw it. that's funny. Once I get a garage built I will do some bike restorations I love working on them. A little TLC goes a long way as long as its not major engine work! I think it will be a nice little side job.
