What color is it, and in what state?
Only can run racing fuel, 93 octane is no potent enough?

RED, Washington and I don't know what fuel he uses.

 

[1BROWNWRENCH]

Dual fuel pumps, bigger injectors and overdrive pulleys for the latest upgrade.

Stupid stuff

Have you seen the videos of the undefeated charger?
Cops hit the lights, he blacks out and is GONE!
Only comes out late at night, little or no traffic, and smokes the 5.7 pursuits.
They end up chasing air!
In one, he pulls over, cop walks up to the car, he slaps the gas with no wheelspin.
By the time the cop gets back to his car, undefeated is gone!

That's a hard NO from me.

Nice---but too high maintenance---even worse than a Harley.

Even worse. It's a collectors bike. It's never ridden.

1973 Sport. Under 3000 miles.

Just some valve adjustments and stuff but I do my Enfield's myself.

If its NEVER ridden its worthless to me.

Desmodromic valve adjustment takes special skills.

I remember those prices!
During the first gas shortage, I thought 40.9 was too high for a gallon of gas...

Reminds me of the time my younger brother thought his 650 Triumph could beat my 1956 Chevy-327- 4 speed. We raced on a straight road about a quarter mile from our house. My Dad happened to be outside raking leaves when we pulled out of the yard and heard us racing. Usually that would mean keys taken away but for some reason all he said was "who won"?
