Thanks for bumping your thread aerohead. I need to make myself a sticky note about that $200 bellypan idea.
It was your story and the movie The World's Fastest Indian that got me to Bonneville. The odds are good I'll be back next year, but it will be a year or two before I could run anything. The guy my son and I went with will be back next year with two Ducatis.
What needs fixing? Swapping in the quick-change rear end? It would be a good excuse to hit a few swap meets while they're still in season.
