John, I gotta call B.S. on on that comment. Even though some of these bikes are as you say, " just a bike that you went and bought" I know the sacrifices me and my wife made to have a V8 bike and know that there are those with less time and ability that are just as proud of their accomplishments and enjoy riding their V8 bikes as much as anyone.
Really I have to admire those that have been successful in life to take the the time to join in the fun and stand shoulder to shoulder with someone like me, a part time construction worker living in an area where the average income is 25,000 dollars a year. Takes all kinds is all I am saying and one of the things I enjoy the most about riding a V8 Bike is all the cool people I get to meet and how much fun it is to be in the V8 Biker family. WM
Wildman, Thanks for sticking up for us who either don't have
any wrenching skills or the time to do our own work.
If John thinks his shit stinks any less than mine he is
sadly mistaken.
I also agree on supporting single moms and I am
a steady customer.

Ulli: Very nice looking bike again! What work did you do besides paint and some custom body work?

I got no problem with it. In fact I think its pretty close to what all of us think by buying a V8 bike in the first place and I been to enough rally's around the place and I dont remember seeing 2 V8 bikes that look the same. I dont think BJ was belittling non-wrenchers or those who scrape through into the club by giving up solids, just that KP is entitled to take extra pleasure in doin it himself.
take that MF's!

Forget the popcorn Fong as I gonna try to make peace.
BJ mayhaps I read more into it than I should have.
I guess I just ain't been getting enough tail and am cranky
in my old age.

It really is a cool new look Ulli! Who put on your Holley and how is it working for you? I went to a professional to get help with my Holley and sure am glad I did. You got any stories?
I can't wait to see the pics from Pullman City this year. Should be a lot of nice things to see!
Hey Mike,
Andy Mueller inserted and adjusted my new Holley.
I am so happy with the new carburetor, my Bike go off now as a rocket or like a Big Block with NOS-power, unbelievably.

I hope you aren't referring to seeing Kiss's tank as it was hidden in a van at Pullman City while you were there.

Wow! spanktabulous work! I'm diggin' Steve's wheels, and the swing arm as well. The tank suits the bike like all of our tanks should!
And wasn't it W1ldman that stated... "I'll stick with black, until they come out with something darker." ??
Gorgeous scooter!
