    Your waisting your time here CB. Little Johnny ain't gonna let you in his thread cause he feels you dumped on him. He does more talking about his bike than anyone I've ever seen. You would have it done and out riding a long time ago. The others are just playing with you but of course you probably already know that.

    CB, no, my bike is not running yet. The head work is just wrapping up. (I gave my indy a lot of time to do the heads as he has had no less than 20 bikes in his shop at any given point all winter. I figure since I am no hurry, because of the weather, to get out riding, I would give him as much time as possible to do his thing without me calling and making him feel rushed. The last that I checked all that needed to be done was to install the beehive springs and set the spring height. Next step is to get the cylinders done and we are a good as gold.

    I am in no rush to get this done as it has been a fairly cold winter with a decent amount of snow and a lot of salt and sand on the roads. I refuse to ride in that stuff. Not sure what other information that you are looking for because all progress has been stated here.

    Everything had a set time to be done by and I have accomplished that. It's all good CB, no worries. :D
