Picked up a 2d monster on Tues

Woot! The Blonde finally let me pick up a second monster. I've been scouring the classifieds for the last nine months until we finally landed this one. I'm normally not into naming my monsters, but we're calling this one "Nadav", meaning generous, noble.
The specs? 9 lbs wet, 21 in. wheelbase. Pretty much all stock 'til we mod the emissions equipment at the bris on Weds. He runs ok, but needs a bit of work. He's backfires a lot. He's ok at idle, but pretty loud at full throttle. If he doesn't get fuel every coupla hours, he suddenly loses power. We've been keeping him covered, hoping the cold nights won't affect start-up. Cosmetically, he's pretty much what you'd expect from sumptin' that old. He'll look pretty different once we get through the break-in period.
The original monster is a bit aprehensive about sharing a garage, but she'll get used to it when she realizes that the new arrival doesn't mean that she's gonna be parted out. Since all threads are useless w/o pics . . .
