I'm going to Australia, Hawaii and Scotland for work/exotic golf vacations , @ 2 weeks a piece, that'll take up sooome of the Winter.

I also plan on turning my RR into a 100% track bike. No more swapping fairings, taking this off, taking that off, etc...and then going shopping for another "everyday" bike.

1971 CB350F1 project, have two so I should be able to make one good one. Thought about restoring it to stock but you just cannot get the OEM 4 into4 exhaust! Mivvi do replicamufflers but ordering from the UK distributor would cost $650!!! I'm gonna do a little Cafe Racer for these mountain roads and commuting the 15 miles to work. Had a similar bike in the UK. That one was Yoshi tuned 400 four, built on a G5 frame with a handmade alloy tank, RD400 suspension, wheelsand brakes, homemade exhaust and Suzuki fairings. Frankenbike! Most fun I've had on a bike on English roads.

whats winter? its like 80 deg down here lol
That's what I'm saying. If it would only get cold long enough for me to strip it down and prep for paint. At this rate, she will never get new color.
LOL. It's snowing in Albuquerque 260 miles North from there, but it's a wonderful 52 degrees in Las Cruces now. Supposed to be colder tomorrow, but that's what Balaclava's and thermals are for.

i stole it, i got it for like 2500 by the time it was said and done (license plate, reg, inspection, etc) i knew it was going to be a work in progress, just didnt realize it was gonna be this much. LOL thats ok though ive had 5 offers for it and im keeping it b/c you dont see these bikes that much around here and i love my 900 RR, ive only seen ONE other in Austin and that was on the Univ. of Tex campus while i was cruising through for some......CURVES yeah, thats it, i was scouting for curves when i ran across it, it was a 98 like mine except it was in perfect condition, he was the 2nd owner the first one being his older brother, the bike was flawless and only had like 5500 miles on it!!
