where you located at in Indiana man, im in cincy would love to come check out this bike in person and ask a few questions. I've got big plans for my next bike (turbo a 400-650cc). Right now i'm in the middle of building a 78 kz200 scoot around town cafe bike. I'm up in Indy sometimes with the VW shows i attend in the late summer and fall. good work man, i've thoroughly enjoyed reading through your build lots of great ideas that have inspired me.
