    He asked questions & we tried to answer them, I even talked to him on the phone once and then he disappeared. WTF I guess he didn't like the BS we give each other. Life is to short to not joke around.:devil:

    O.K.

    I ain't suppose to say nothin. But last time I talked to him.
    He was thinkin about having a Custom CAm made
    All I said is WTF man.
    You want to reinvent the Ball. Its already rolling and doing a great job.
    All you want is a little more power.
    Learn to ride yer bike and enjoy it.
    What you want to do, it walk out to the garage, turn the swith on, hit the button and her crank and stick the chic on the back and go enjoy yerself riding where ever.
    That's what its all about.
    Not workin on it or it being a hot rod
    At that time he has done nothin else to it.
    Sorry I couldn't help either.

    I think a lot of guys here tried to talk to him. He just seemed to never be satisfied and seemed to always want more.

    There is no Best Build. You don't reinvent something that already works.
    You go with something proven and that is good and learn to enjoy it.
    Think he musta been bored and wanted to learn more and more and couldn't wait.
    Hope he takes his wife out and rides and enjoys his new bike when it warms up where he is.
    He has a nice riding bike if he can slow down and enjoy it.
    All he really needed is a cam to give him a little more power for passing and torque for pulling around a passenger so he didn't feel them on Back.
    Wish him luck with his bike and his rides. He has a nice bike.

    Exactly right, a race bike is for racing and a bagger you add a little performance to make it fun yet reliable and enjoy the miles.:D
