Default Projects, I'm gonna be busy!

Have you ever found yourself with just too many cool things to do and not near enough time? I usually do. Here are a few shots of my winter projects, just too bad the winters here in the south are not cold enough to keep you inside for 6 months!

Might get back on the suzuki project.

The 618 project.

Adapting a gearbox to the 100HP BMW project.

Mark the engine is out of a 1988 BMW touring motorcycle a K100rs 1000cc fuel injected, Dual overhead cam, 90-100 HP 170lbs 76kg? it is kind of cool, a four cylinder but layed over sideways.

And have you ever seen a BMW bike broken down on the side of the road?!
