Did a little refresh/rebuild before the CALVMX national. got a very special set of shoes for it for the race. so special they dont show up in photos and cant touch asphalt

frame was stripped down and pivots were repaired, then frame was painted. Swinger got same treatment. motor got a little update too.

Whats up with the seat?


its FUNKY to say the least...and rock hard. i have the seat in the first pictures at the upholstery shop having a NOS hi flite cover stretched over. Hopefully it wont turn out as...um... flamboyant.

We need to start a 185cc circuit, those thing are cool, way before they're time.
