That is very true and I plan to do that here real soon. I'll also buy anyone who contributed to this thread a beer if we ever meet.

Speaking of meeting I'm going to the AMA VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE DAYS in Ohio this July if anyone wants to get together for a ride or something. I'll start another thread on that in a little while though.

Congrats again, Mike. I've been reading this thread since it started, and learned more than a few things along the way.

The bike looks SICK. Wanna do mine next?

Mike,
Congrats man, looks awesome. I think I might have to go and do my bike now instead of next winter ;D. Glad its running well, and tell your wife that she should have more faith in you and your mechanical aplitude.

Thanks for the link. Reading what they were saying about me just makes me even more thankful for having found the DML. I would never expect to be treated that way over here.

Thanks again guys.

Congrats Mike!* Early on I had this feeling you were going to succeed and as I followed your posts it became more apparent that you would and I'm glad you did.* I think a few people, especially at Speedzilla, need to eat a little crow.* *;D* Also, your bike looks truely awsome.* Sometime I'd like to see it in person; maybe over the summer.* Anyway, congrats again!* *[thumbsup]

Mike in Holt, MI

PS* Thanks so much for sharing your project with us!

Keep in mind that if it all blows up next week, you'll have to keep your mouth shut to protect your new reputation.
