That bike looks great Scottishguy, did you base it off an actuall racebike? Did you have the decals made?

Well here is a quick cruise up and down the highway in front of my house. Yup I hit the rev limiter on the way back home twice, dang thing revs too fast now. I need to install my shift light soon. Hopefully I won't bounce of the limiter that way. I added a msd limiter after I overeved a few years ago, it cuts spark out at 12100rpms. My valves actually don't float until about 13,300 but it sucks to do and sounds horrible! Not to mention its bad for the bike. We would have wired in a full msd ignition, but 2 things kept it away. 1, the R/R doesn't put out enough current to run one. 2, the only ignition boxes that can turn 12k are in the $500+ range.

We should have taken more pictures. I haven't yet figured out how to include a pic like that in a post without it being a thumbnail. Does anyone have a link to instructions? Or can anyone explain it?

get it hosted someplace ( like imageshack.us ) by using the simple upload browser on the main page.
then cleck onthe picture when its displayed.
then right click and either "save image location" if thats there, or "properties" and copy the entire " Image URL" and then open a post on here.
Type [img]then paste the image location you just copied here[/img]
and voila.

a few of mine. didnt used to look like this at all, I rattle canned it and am happy enough with the results, pretty decent. white also hides the mess ups better than, say, black 
and how it USED to look..
