[quote="scrambler73 so is rubbermounting a set of B/C cases.[/quote]

The cases are done; it's the rest of the spare motor that needs cash that isn't around
Kid just started at College of Charleston 3 weeks ago: 1 year tuition = 2 perfectly restored triples

It's juts a matter of time for you Cody! :o

Definitely my K1200RS. Smooth as silk, pulls like a freight train from bottom to top, incredible braking with ABS, and comfortable for all day riding.

Which ever bike I'm on is my favorite to ride! ;) There are benefits and special qualities (and nuances :? )of each and every one. Two wheels and a motor- it's ALL good. :e14

street bike... the Denco H2 hands down.

Yesterday, I took it out for a ride for the first time in almost 2 months ( :oops: ) as Ive been riding the H1.

I just LOVE how it makes power. Yesterday was crisp/cool and it pulled the coolest (long/controllable) 2nd gear power wheelie when I was pulling into traffic onto the highway. Most of the time I chicken out and shut the throttle, but this one just floated until redline and I shifted into third. 8-) 8-) 8-)

The bad part was the amount of oil that blew out of the pipes when it first fired up :shock: ..... Check valves are definately on the "to-do" list this winter. I was hoping it would heal itself.. :lol:

I now have oil spray all over my freshly seal-coated driveway. My wife didn't think it was too cool.

I have not even got my new project 73 H2 purple to my shop, so for now I say my Yamaha RZ350, then my Suzuki RG500 gamma, then my Yamaha RZ500. I hear they sell motorcycles now that have 4 strokes, thats double my 2 strokes!
