I hate you for making all of this public.
I now have a large container with some well used, lonely one dollar bills and pocket change.
It's not nearly enough.
Seriously, thanks for all the info and updates. I wanted to do a stock wheelbase turbo bike the second I bought mine, but wasn't sure that I wanted all that comes with it. Now being a little more educated on high hp turbo bikes, I feel like it's very liveable on the streets and I'll probably put it in my plans to get it working sometime in the winter. That being said, I have no real use that I can use to justify building a turbo bike.... but I never had one for anything else either.
When I finish the 64 Catalina, I'm all over this.
If you don't mind (for those of us who haven't owned a turbo bike) could you explain the upkeep and maintenance, riding weather vs non riding, etc...?
