I NEVER KNEW OUR R* WERE SO DAMN POWERFUL. WHILE AT THE DOCTORS YESTERDAY, THEY KINDLY PUT A 195 JET IN, CLEANED THE MANIFOLD, PUT LARGE SPACERS ON THE HYPERCHAGER AND FINELY TUNED THE CARB. WHEN I TOOK HER OUT FOR THE TEST, IT NEARLY PULLED MY ARMS OFF. I COULD REACH 4K RPM IN JUST THE FLICK OF A RIST. THE MECHANIC WHO TESTROAD IT FIRST TOLD ME THAT WAS THE TORQUIEST V-TWN HE HAD RIDDEN (DONT KNOW HOW MANY HE HAS BUT). SO, NOW THAT I HAVE TO WATCH THE SPEEDO BECAUSE I CAN BE AT 85 BEFORE I KNOW IT, I WILL KEEP HER AND RIDE HER WHILE I AM MAKING METTALICA.

AS FOR METTALICA, I STARTED MAKING THE FRAME YESTERDAY. I AM WAITING ON THE MECHANICAL SPEC FROM MOTUSE SO I CAN PUT ALL THE MOUNT PIONTS IN THE RIGHT SPOT. I THINK I WILL HAVE EVERYTHING DONE TO THE BIKE BEFORE I GET THE ENGINE AND THATS A LITTLE BIT SCARY BUT A RISK WORTH TAKING. IF I SCREW UP THE MOUNT PIONTS, I WILL SIMPLY PUT AN XWEDGE IN IT AND START ANOTHER BIKE BUILT AROUND THE ENGINE.

THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS THAT WE HAVE GREAT ENGINS AND WHEN WELL IN TUNE, THEY ARE INCREDIBLE TO RIDE, THAT COMING FROM A GUY WHO IS USED TO A HYPED UP VALKRIE.
