Truthfully, I wish you could be here, you, you, well, you RadioHowie!

Freaking true. I so want to see KrZy8 continue living, especially since Hal (KaitsDad) did all that work not so long ago. Yes, I was tempted by some other marques / models... but in the end, this is one fine platform that fits me well. So I'll go the extra mile and soldier on.

Thanks Roger!

From you, that means much!

(Especially since you spent much moola on your 'old' ride too)

Judging from this pic, it appears that speeding also damages eyesight! Ifn' you need a back up chain hoist, I have a 2 ton unit that I can borrow from my Pops and I reckon it'll lift your load. Good luck with the new parts for the old girl!

The eagle has landed!

Doing the winter maintenance on the '06 with 3 IBR's and 97K on her...

Had a peek in the exhaust ports and I WISH they looked this good!

Excellent thread :rockwoot: :rockwoot: :rockwoot:

If it makes you feel better, that pix of is intake stems, not exhaust! Say, Mr. Go Far, the CBA is need of esteemed member #10, who must be an IBA rider to qualify... and as an IBR competitor, you get the extra super dooper prestige of having your name accented with yellow background! I mean, really, what *greater* honor than that?

You interested in all the great honor, prestige, swag and $$$ in being a member of this fine organization?

 

[RaYzerman19]

Those intakes look pretty awesome...... no ethanol???? Somebody cleaned them up??? Low mileage??

+ 1 from here. We're all pullin' for ya Don! :fans: :drinks: :dinamo: :good:

One nice footnote to this Phoenix project will be how relatively inexpensive your salvage engine was. It is great for all the rest of us to know that, even in the absolute worst possible mechanical failure situations, there are still possibilities for recovery. Heck one BMW final drive would probably set you back more than what this is going to cost. :derisive:
