Good to see you are keeping busy! That colour looks fantastic on a bike that came very close to the “bin”! Where did you order the Delkevic? Fast ship??

Not bad! Seems like a very fair deal.

Lash glad to hear the ribs are healing well and you are doing better plus the bonus of getting some rides in...
Sorry the bike was a write-off and is going away.
That looks really nice on the K2, you did well on that bike transforming it back from the edge.
Good pipes are likely only to get harder to find as fewer 750s are stored in conditions preventing them from rotting. Hopefully you can find a set for John...or work out a deal
The new pipes are t too bad a deal considering inflation and shipping post pandemic. We are lucky they are still reasonably priced.
David- back in the desert SW!

What clamps are you using on intake manifolds?

I thought it might need the studs like a 77-78 but turns out they use the original finned clamps.
