Come on man don't be such a tease. Take the time to do a proper thread, or at least give us the specs and a couple pictures.

I think Rich is still getting the pictures developed at Walgreens. IIRC they'll burn his photos to a CD for an extra $2.99.

Thanks for hosing it down?
Shakedown happened today. Drove it through to rev range up to 4k. Gotta say, it feels strong, sounds good, and so far, is staying together. Can't wait to really drive it. It's hard to stay patient when It pulls so smoothly at half throttle.
