Darnded "river people"...i live right down the road from their shop. Had to go look out back to see if my grill was still there after seeing this unfortunate hilarity. Its still there for now; for now. Will keep an eye out for "office space guy" driving that truck.

Ride is much more comfortable after taking the top engine mount off. Now it is highway capable without vibrating my hands and arms out of my shoulders. just need to cover my seat and see what i want to do about a speedo/tach.

Been done for a little while...just havent posted anything in a while. Heres some pics from last weekend.

Posting this for my dad...He just bought a 06 Triumph Sprint and my mother wont let him keep both. This is the post of it on CL http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/mcy/3103509550.html Asking 4500 on CL...OR price is 3500 *** 2007 Yamaha V-Star 650 Custom Midnight Edition Black paint with red flamed pin-striping 6450 miles 650cc Shaft-drive drivetrain Detachable windshield...great for longer highway rides. Detachable side bags Dealer(Beechmont Yamaha) installed extras: Cobra exhaust pipes Carbs re-jetted with bigger jets Awesome starter bike with great gas mileage. Gets 55-60mpg with normal riding. Im selling only because I just picked up a bigger touring bike, and the wife won't let me have both. ***

want to get it home so i can wrap the pipes and make a clean looking heat shield..then paint (black and olive drab two-tone)...then completion.

Its been a long time since ive updated due to the fact that I got caught up buying my first house...But im back. Bike has been taken to a shop around the corner to get some welding done, since i lack a welder, and also some carb tuning. Pretty much done...hes adjusting the timing to get the idle set. At this point ive ridden it and it pulls strong, but when you let off the throttle it stalls...hope to get it back tomorrow.

much better...i too have a new t3. hoping to get more shooting time. keep at it.

thankyou very much

nothing new yet other than the tensioner...ill get some when i mockup the exhaust

here is the route you should go with a blast. http://thekneeslider.com/archives/2006/12/08/buell-blast-cafe-racer/

Got a bundle of mandrel bent tubing in today...hope to get my buddy over to weld something up for me. I think im set on some scrambler style pipes. Also, have been having some trouble bleeding brakes, but seems that i have a small leak coming from where the banjo and line itself are connected...defective goodridge line. Belt tensioner is complete...kind of industrial looking at this point, but works. Pics tomorrow.

start-up.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jt3jyhf39qA ...im trying to mess with the throttle cable under the tank. Its jacked up from when i was trying to cut it to length...its usless at this point...im going to have to get another before i can ride it. Chain..brake fluid...throttle cable :-( ...check alll bolts and ill be rolling

Unfortunatley i have to work tomorrow, so i wont have too much more time to fiddle with it. But it starts and runs on its own. Need to adjust carbs a bit, and tie up loose ends(brake fluid, chain, etc) and also redo the throttle cable. I will post vids as soon as i get them.

SUCCESS!!!! its alive....

l I'm still deciding on how I want to run pipes. Either way I'm gonna have the headers wrapped...I love that look.

yea you can get disc brakes on a spoked wheel...alot of the cb750s have them. I have ideas for the rear wheel...but for now i just want to finish it, then modify it down the road.

pulled it outside today...waiting to schedule a time with boretech to start up

black and copper or a off-white/creme and copper

Have Bill from Boretech coming by this weekend to help me with the start-up. Im kind of scared that im going to fry the electronic ignition, so hes going to check all my wiring for me. Plan to have a running bike this weekend. Then.... ...Get a nice exhaust formed up...thinking scrambler style pipes Then... ...PAINT

soldering...im sure you can find one plug and play. but im making a custom harness, so nothing is plug and play for mine.

in it to win it

SOLD

Just wanted to post up my buddies younger brothers videos. 16yr old rapper that i think might have a future. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAaaWy8Lwig&feature=related

This is my buddies younger brother...wanting to be a rapper. I know that not everyone is into rap, but for a 16yr old, hes pretty good. Does everything himself.
