Well, this is a bittersweet moment for me. I've basically finished what I needed to get done on the Maxim, and it's a fun ride ;D , but the last wave of student loans is coming due this month, and money is going to be
extremely tight, which forces a quick sale of the Maxim :'( . I can't leave this thread without posting some halfway-decent pics of it though, so here ya go:
Now that I have it pieced together, there are about a dozen more things I'd like to do to it to make it a bit more cohesive, like larger, custom-made side covers for instance. For all I know, I'll have time to do some of those things before it's sold, but I don't have the luxury of waiting--AES (the student loan people) make sure of that.
One thing is for sure, I will be planning the next project before this one is even sold, and I will stick around here and make corny jokes and throw my two cents around in the meantime. As soon as I land a teaching job, I'll start campaigning for the next bike
. I may need to move though, because teaching jobs in PA are about as common as a three-legged ballerina.
