I'll give a shout out to VastMoto, Metric Motorbike, and Maine Moped Factory for their continued support and influence. Also, Mike Rieck of JMR Cylinder Head Porting, for building a supremely strong motor for me.
 
I just may be able to do that. We will be rinding through Maine to and from NH and was thinking of swinging by Scott's shop. Will be in North conway from May 11-14th and may make a trip into Portland or may ride home through there on the 14th.
 
Cool, Fishing? Or Freight? Or Tug? Whatever way be safe on the water and I am sure I will be riding through Maine again this summer.
 
If anyone wants to follow, I'm doing a rebuild over on the sohc forums with a gixxer frontend:

Re: CB750K Mainely a Dream

That's real clean. Interested to see how it turns out with the Gixxer front end.
 
How do you like that Acewell gauge? I've ordered some mini gauge for mine, but looking into it for later. Seems like it pretty does everything in one.
 
It's pretty snazzy for the price! Have to pay real close attention to how it's mounted, as the angle of view will wash the LCD out if not spot on. Otherwise, it's dope.
