After so much time on them it is almost hard to let them go isn't it? I know it can be for me. Of course that payment at the end helps.

Re: VAINCRE PROJECT BLOG
Richard,
Having seen this bike just before you wrapped it up, I have to say to everyone, pictures do not do it justice! As awesome as it looks in the photos, it just blows you away to see it in person!!! The attention to the details is AMAZING... BEAUTIFUL... Just a couple words that came to my lips while looking at her.
Great job, you should be proud.
Thanks for letting see her,
Mike

I'm late and it is irrelevant anyway but the water pump I just replaced on the Dragon Wing ('81 motor) was bakealite.
