Great looking bike!  I like the retro Ducati n the tank too!

Back from another ride after making a very slight fueling adjustment.  Two unintentional wheelies (we're talking a carbed M750, not exactly a wheelie king of a bike or rider for that matter) later I think it's pretty good.

Uploading videos to Youtube from my new mount location.  If the EVER get uploaded, I'll share them.  Youtube is SLOW on uploads it seems.

Thanks guys . . . the Alpina wheels are already with me at home, friend who is doing the ADSS powder coating[almost free] I am not hurrying up; when it is done, the following changes will come:

replace metal DSS with ADSS pc black
install adjustable height rod, custom made, I had install it once but, took it down
install of 749 rear shock
install Alpina spoked wheels[all black] in OEM sizes, 3.5"/4.5"[last one]
lower gauges
will purchase, but only install for shows, Rizoma Retro bar end mirrors, will get another chinese set for daily use, would get real pissed if someone took the Rizoma . . .
oh, and new 14/48 DID rivet style gold chain with JT fr&rr sprockets . . .

Now, to continue with work, which pays for all of these nice things and others Grin

Dilemma, job offer, out of the blue, technically more challenging and interesting, $10K less pay, ( 90k vs 80k ) same conditions, car, phone laptop etc. Working with a guy I know well and respect. Contract may end here August 31 so I could be out of a job then.
So stick around and see what happens and remain bored, or go back to what I know I'm good at?
Writing this down, I think I may have just convinced myself which way to jump.
