This guy has a thread going over at the GSResources about his shocks. They sound pretty good, and the price is nice too. http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/sh ... p?t=104250

Update on T20 project progress. Got the pistons unstuck from the bores, sent the barrels/heads out for bead blast cleanup. Now it's time to pull the motor from the frame, extract the crankshaft and send it out ro rebuild.

I received my race bodywork from Glass From The Past, bought an upholstered tailsection and a G50 replica cowling.

Here's a pic of the progress so far, still a long ways to go.

I MIGHT be at Datona either Monday 5 Mar or Tue 6 Mar...depends on my work schedule. I will just happen to be showing our latest Bradley vehicle at the AUSA show (Army trade show) in Ft. Lauderdale 07-09 Mar, if I get the display set up over the preceeding weekend I'm going to Daytona to watch the AHRNMA races.

Ralph, you should be able to stash your bike in that thing before they ship it. Then you can ride to Daytona!

I don't think I'm going to Daytona again. The crowds are too big, and my tolerance for Santa-looking-one-percenter-wannabes gets lower every day. I'd love to see some of you guys but, for me, that's not the place.

If the vintage races in Savannah were on the weekend, I'd do that.

The funny thing is that I had transportation available for my T500 racer to Daytona. With the work schedule I just couldn't guarentee I could get away to race.

Work sucks sometimes...but then again it does pay the racing bills.
