last weekend of the month. Next one is yet to be decided but I think we are having a cookout at my house. Can you see how much mac wants for the rear wheel off of that sl 350. I am sure I cant buy it but for entertainment purposes can you ask. I could use it.

I second the cookout motion.  Let's do that.

Think of a reasonable amount and add $50. I'll bet that his price will be within $20 of that price.

I like the idea of that. I work night shift so I should be able to make it.

I was wondering if anyone near 6th st in Faytown has some grudge space to spare? I've realized that I can't really afford the time or gas to drive to Tontitown just to work on my bike. Especially since my Crown Vic has decided to finally die. (Starter has gone out, probably has electrical problems, all suspension is gone. Might fix it if my wife decides to keep it, otherwise I'm getting my Golf tagged and on the road.) I'm borrowing my dad's truck right now while my wife is about to give birth to our daughter, so I'll be able to haul in the near future.

I just found out that DOHC 750's up to 83 use 3ohm coils. $33 vs. $160

Found a nice looking old header on ebay.  Anybody good with identifying aftermarket headers?

I'd like a ride before hand, but doubtful I'll have the cl tuned enough. We could ride afterwards maybe?

Dont know what that is Andy. strange how it mounts. not a yosh, maybe a modified kerker?? I dont know.

A ride after would be fine with me. lets plan for that and see how things go. Andy, are you driving up or riding?

Chances are that I'm driving up.  I'm trying to get the 360 prepped for my paint guy up there, so I'm shooting for bringing it up that weekend.  I kind of dig the spring mounts on that header.  It's gotta be somebody's personal mod.

I'm going to get my o-ring kits for the carbs installed this week, and hopefully be riding around town getting things dialed. If all goes well I could potentially ride it out to the meet. Still need to get some new rubber on the wheels first though.

Looks like the guy finished my old xs650 and has it on Craigslist now.

I really like the chopped up bars you had on that at one point.

I did too, until the broomsticks were put on. I want to see if he will let me ride it. Doubtful.

I'm sure we can push it back till the afternoon. That would give us plenty of time for a ride before hand too. Dipping carbs and putting o-rings in right now....

Oooh. Maybe we can do a taco race for the lunch portion, since I missed the last one. Patrick?
