Ha!  That would've been cool as hell....  Too bad I parted out the engine already....

But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

The big-motored cranks won't fit into a small case engine (IIRC). 

Here's what I relate to:

I'm at like 400% of initial purchase price and the bike is in pieces YET AGAIN!  I'm so F'd.  Oh well! [drink]

Yep, that's why you need to skip "step 1", and go straight on to "step 2, click on Monsters For Sale"...

I barely got room for the one. unless I park a bike inside my apt.

in which case, said 'parked in apt.' bike would be very, very specific. and a long term project type bike, at that.

I like my wet clutch bike. It keeps me from having to explain to all of the people that don't know about dry clutches that it's not a rod knocking and there's nothing wrong with the motor and that it's all supposed to do that.
