I'm yet another admirer of these bikes. They're just great to look at and I'll bet they're even more fun to ride. I'd like to get one, but I just don't think that's gonna happen. Whoever does get one has to promise to get one of these to complete the package...

I was looking around on eBay (I'm a little addicted) and saw this BMW. I thought it was pretty cool and then looking through the pictures I noticed there is a brake failure indicator light. My first thought was that it's a little unnecessary because I'm pretty sure I would know when the...

Well, I guess if you found the strength to part with it at least you took the time to find a loving home :D

I would say I like all the ideas except the off-center stripe. The only reason I don't like the off-center is because of the shape of the top of your tank. I would think you should incorporate that in your striping by either doing your single stripe covering the raised section or your double...

I'm not sure I could have parted with that great looking bike.

I found a couple of bikes on eBay that seem pretty nice. This first little 350 is pretty nice but not worth the buy it now, is it? It's only like 10 miles away from me...

What a tease.

Please excuse my ignorance, but are you going to still use a battery. I was thinking of going without a starter and was wondering if I still need to have a battery. Someone told me I do because the alternator will put out too much voltage for the system to handle without a place to store it...

Looks great. How do you like those tires? I was thinking of getting the same ones.

Thanks a lot for joining up. I looked through your slideshow and it was full of nothing but inspiration. Makes me feel like I'm really slackin on my bike ;D

I'm going to get a new throttle and was wondering what you guys thought of this. I like the look and everything but i'm not sure about the quick pull. I think I remember ProTeal saying he had one and didn't like it. I'm not going to be racing or anything so I'm just wondering if this type of...

Those are some great pictures. Check out the rearset location on the supercharged 1949 Vincent Black Lightning.

Whoops How does K5 sound? ;D When I got the bike the guy gave me an owners manual that said K6 on it.

Hey thanks. It isn't riveted so I think it would be an easy rebuild. I'm gonna check out those fuel taps first, though.

Not in KC but I'm pretty close in Wichita. Closer than these Canadians anyways ;D
