Bike is in great shape Tom. Kind of a shame that I have to tear into it. But such is the life of a race bike. I agree. The work is all part of the fun!! Really looking forward to racing this year. Mostly because I'll be on a bike I know better and am just more comfortable on. That, and I won't feel like the outcast anymore! |

Congrats on the bike Rocco. At least you're not taking a brand new bike, and tearing it apart... Bought a Super TT on Saturday. Along with $1600 in parts from a Uly and Firebolt to make a modern S3T |

I thought that was going to be your new race bike? Mines in pieces right now!! Soon to be back together in race form! Between that, revamping the trailer, removing Karris tires to be brought in to be changed and pulling the suspension off the Uly to be lowered....CRAP! I've got WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY to much to do and not enough time!!

Looks good Tom, you'll have it in race trim in no time. Rocco- you are going to be busy! But it's worth it, and besides you'll know so much more about your bikes. Sure was nice in Daytona today, but we are on our way back now, hope to bring the warm riding weather back with us. |

Thanks for all the info the other night Coolice. Don't be surprised if I call you a few times! Did you get my scan of the ......? Jason. Did you get your engine back for the race bike? Need a hand getting it back in? I'm really looking forward to racing this year. I don't expect to do much better, but at least I'm on a bike I'm comfortable with and know better. |

Rocco, I haven't gotten it back together yet. I;ve gathered what I hope to be the last of the parts tonight and should be working on it over the next week or so. After that, I may need a hand get it back in the bike. Have you you gotten to pulling the suspension off of the Uly yet? |

Hey J, Great Lakes is opening up this weekend for test and tune. (If the weathers good) Mikes' bringing the bike up so I can try it out. It's still stock but I can try out the wheelie bar. |

I haven't touch the Uly yet! I need to get crackin'! Let me know if you need a hand, and I'll do the same. Nancy, if Mike's coming up and you talk to him before hand, ask him to bring up the belly pan mounting bracket do-hickies he made. There's a dinner in it for ya two!! |
