This is the quote that they should have used it thier ad campaign back in '73.

My heartbeat elevates every time I get on it... along the same lines of when I jumped on my buddies 200+ HP Haybusa and hammered it through the gears.

Not that the snowjob is "Hayabusa-Fast"... Just that the experience itself is likely to end with a ride in the back of an Ambulance. I'm not kidding when I say this might be the worst engineering idea ever. How it ever made it past that late-night dive bar napkin sketch is beyond me.

that said, Mark and I are happy to have had the opportunity to bring it back from the dead and that neither of us were killed during its time with us. I'm even more happy that the stupid thing is now hundreds of miles away... :lol:

The fact that I didn't have time to disable the ignition makes me nervous though...considering who its owner is. :shock:

Nice pic. It looks a little wobbly being the bike sits that high. Maybe it they brought the bike portion down closer to the ground. :eh:
