the vet said I could ride Chucky if I didn't get the bike registered...

he did say something about not crashing though.

I told him not to wave me down from the ditch. ;D

Yeah it is...

It's a 2V 853.

It sounds just like a 748. ;)

Because he could?

He wanted to try to emulate some of the reviness of the 748 in a 2V.

He used a 748 crank w/944 pistons and has short manifolds with flatslides.

He claims it doesn't make much power...about the same as a 900 carby...I think he's fibbing.

Why don't we shot for a time to ride on Saturday.

How does 1:00 sound?  Should be enough time to recover?

That explains why Chucky sounds like the offspring of an angry two stroke and a 748. 


Eric is crazy.   ;D
