   I'm waiting to see how you're gonna hook that bar feed up to the bike. ;D

Oh, and since you didn't return my call, play around some with K8 and see what it does. I believe that's the one we were looking for.
I also e-mailed you a couple of pics concerning the tailstock assembly.

 Apparently one or more of the previous owners has done some tinkering with the machines parameters.
  Kevin has worked his way through a few problems already and i'm helping when and where i can. [popcorn]

Hey ML,

how bout you design a top triple that can be used with either bar or clip-ons ... without removing it from the bike ...

Just a thought ...
