I've always liked the looks of the 900SS and especially the CR.  That is until i get to the front view.  I would do just about any thing to get rid of a rectangular headlight.

square light stays.   Parts of what makes an old SS, and old SS  [thumbsup]

(I do like the round headlights though)

I really like the stock headlight nowdays. Its part of the bikes character and identity. Im even going to put the beer tray bake on the Monster, albeit with number plate tidy. You know, keep the character of the older model with subtle modification.

ARRRG!  Went to bolt on the starter, and I can't find the gasket for it.  [bang] [bang] 

Hopefully someone has it in stock somewhere, otherwise it's ANOTHER 2 weeks :(

I got a few. Send me a mailing address and we can work out the 2 bucks or whatever another day

I hit another snag.

Dealer sent me 4 orings of a size I only need 3, and 2 orings of another size that I need 3.  Great.

Also....one of the dowel pins didn't make it back from the cleaning/head job, so I'm trying to hunt that down as well.

Are we happy with how well PC transfer heat and how it will look after a few heat cycles?

If we are, I'm in [thumbsup]

Dunno about PC and heat transfer...that's VHT engine paint after a lot of elbow grease.....

Thanks for the compliments!

Anyone have one of those dowel pins laying around I can buy?

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Dowel pin, that goes between the cylinder and head.
