Yikes! Dude, if it wasn't for bad luck, you'd have no luck at all. Sounds like the story of my life. I have faith. I'm pretty sure we all do. It'll all come around to you sooner or later. Hang in there, bro!

Sorry to hear about the bum leg. Stay off it and let it heal up, the build can wait.

Fried Compy
Hey Truck I tried to send you a PM but your box is full so I doubt you will get this either but it's worth a try. If you fried the computer, I have a Dell server that I planned to rebuilt if you need something to get back online. You can have it, but I can't bring it to Chatt. If you know anyone heading that way I can hand it off. It's nothing fancy but a P4 server grade Dell. Just an offer...

Yep, right at 350 lbs with battery, oil, coolant, brake fluid AND a gallon of fuel.

Seat height is a little over 33 inches, but I fit it perfectly.

Hey happy to hear from you, get well so you can ride this thing, that tank look awesome, in fact the whole bike do !!
While you heal, it will give you the chance to finish all the details before getting it on the road.

absolutely awesome... took awhile to catch up, but LOVE IT.

One thing has been bothering me though... seems like the front tire is a bit fat?
