    It's just my old 76 750F that I will probably never finish.

    Not that you asked, but that bike is waaaaaay to pretty for that fuggly box. Reminds me of a drag bike delay box setup. Those came out about the same time I stopped enjoying drag racing.

    Depends on how small you cut em up!

    I bought it at a Classic Car auction in Palm Springs around 12 years ago because it was so outlandish looking and I wanted to give my friends a laugh when I pulled up to their place in it. I can't tell you just how much gold plated wire wheels are so "not me", which is one of the reasons I bought it. On the other hand, the wheels were around $2,800.00 and the Continental kit was around $1,800.00 and they don't make either anymore so I could probably sell them off to the boys in da hood in Compton or LA for some good coin and probably make enough to almost recover what I paid for the entire car...providing the don't just "wheel jack" me instead of paying for them.

    lol, yeah, that might amuse the crowd up there but I actually have never really driven "overly" aggressively. I have seen the gruesome results of driving stupidly way more times than anyone should have to and have no desire to be a statistic. Other than doing a few stupid things when I was young (well ok, a lot of stupid things), my most common grievous driving offense used to be going just a little faster than the speed limit on straight roads when traffic was light. I raced offroad so often when I was younger that doing so probably helped satisfy my need for speed so I didn't "need" to do it on public roads.

    It doesn't take much for that old boat to lean over........maybe 5 mph over the speed limit!

    Your right........there is so really yucky accidents on the Ortega...... especially bikes vs autos
