No; I'll have to look them up. Many years ago I used to go to hillclimb drag races in Whiteford, MD near the Pa/MD border. They had a big hill and would use several firehoses connected together strung down the center of the hill as the divider between lanes. They had a regular drag strip Christmas tree to tell the bikes when to start. There were some really cool bikes there, but the most memorable were the Kawasaki 750 triples with big paddle tires on extended swingarms. Those went up that big hill so fast they had to shut down the engines before they reached the top and they still would launch into the air when they got to the top. You could climb up the side of the hill and watch from any position. What fun! Ed

when you look at this hill it isnt much till you stand at the bottom. Its not that far from you.

That looks solid, but I'm leaning toward a 2 or 3 piece setup. I know I've seen a couple of street fighters here that's had it done and I've seen some pics of the builds, but I'll be damned if I can find the pics now.

Thanks! It took a lot of cleaning to get it to this point. I don't think it has ever been stored inside since it was new.
Not sure what you mean by "hair dryer"?

From the look of the exhaust header and the square plenum I'm assuming its a turbo bike or am i
Mistaken?
