Keith,
Sounds to me like once you get the return spring fixed you will be good to
go. As with any mechanical "being" there is a risk of breakdown. These bikes
are as good as any though once they are up and running.
Does this mean you will not be coming to the Adirondak Rally now?
Speaking of Rallies. Anyone on this list heading to the Ontario (Canadian
National :-)) Rally this weekend?
Regards...Ian

| Hey Ian, Just needed to blow off some steam, you can see/read that in my note. I'd love to get to ride this machine one of these days, been waiting for her to be operational for a year now, losing patience with "Patience". Sounds like it may be just a simple return spring installation adjustment per Tom's message earlier. Hope so, I'd hate to have to pull the engine and trans again for the 4th time. Hope once this is resolved she will run fine for a long time. It's gonna take a bunch of miles for me to build a reliability trust with her though, will have to just run around town for a few hundred miles, this way if she breaks down, I'll be close! Not much was untouched during this 1 year ordeal, I just worry about the chrome liners someday, hopefully they are solid right now and won't need work for a bunch of years. Electrical wiring is OK, but I guess someday she should be refreshed. I've gotta alot of $$$$ and tears invested, so it would be hard to give up the fight now. Thanx for the confidence boost, and oh, and if you want her, just add a zero to the end of your offer ($5000)and she's all yours! Keith Ruff 71 Police Amabassador - NJ Ian Adkins wrote:
