Deadduck, Give me a call in the morning (404-542-5542) and we can get a time! I am headed out to Newnan tonight to get a 1983 Z50!! WOOT WOOT! It is the non running one but I really dont care, If I cant get it running there is always the 150cc motor option! (Message edited by new12r on February 29, 2008) |

Kdan, I remember those scooters from my trip there. Have you put on the "native" shorts yet? You know you have to, right?? And you MUST pull your socks up as well. |

I got to get it in the barn and get it torn down. I also got a Shop manual, the side plates, the rest of the airbox, a new tube for the front, the engine cover that is missing in the pic and some spare gears! |

I will be here. Stop on by. I am always up this early, I have an alarm clock that screams, and the snooze button only works for about an extra 5! |

Well, looks like I will have to seal the head up. The intake valve is leaking pretty bad and wont create enough compression to fire. And I got a bad azz idea for the paint! |

You have the GA aquarium, Coke museum next door, Stone Mountain park, the Fernbank museum, The High museum. You could travel up to Dalonega and hit the Gold Mine museum. While up there you have tons of parks, the Appalachian trail, Brasstown Bald(highest point in GA). Just a few ideas off the top of my head! |

Atlanta is Great for vacations! You have Stone Mountain,the Atlanta Zoo and 6 flags but your girls might be a bit young for that one. Look both of those up on line and it will give you more details of the attractions inside both Stone Mtn and the zoo and what might be age appropriate for your girls. |

Spent a few hours on the Fiddy this morning.
Got the valves out and found a huge ding in the intake valve, it is bent a little too. I will have to order them, should be here Thurs. I am going to get a heli coil for the spark plug, most of the threads are there but I would rather be safe. That should have me Running! Fine tune later! I cleaned up the wheels, From this.....
To this!! I used the Buell frame paint from a 9. Look less grey in person.
I will have a ton of fresh paint on this thing! I already did the fenders in Black. I cant wait to get this thing finished. |

Jennings rocked! We drove down late Friday night and rode all day Saturday. Jessica bought a guy's Sunday slot after he wadded his bike up, and I spent Sunday taking pictures. I got full track access, and Turn One comped me a free track day later this year for the shots. We had a wreck free weekend and got home about 11:00 last night. I'll write up some more and post some pics later when I get time. |
