He got out of it at about the 600' mark, clutch was slipping. Has an open dry clutch, bike was sitting for 3 years, the clutch needs to be taken apart and cleaned. Don't remember what the slip said.
Stopped riding it because of the seating position during a number on my back.
Wouldn't say I'm selling it. In exchange for me giving Skip the bike he is going to buy me a nee 127" motor and trans. For some strange reason Skip has become a buddy. My wife calls him my son.
I have another frame, so the plan is for me to start rounding up some of the parts and build it as the $$ becomes available.
I spent sometime talking with one of Skips best friends. He told me that Skip knows how much I used to enjoy riding...and just wants to help me get back there.
Not going to have any real serious discussions with Skip until after my 3 level fusion...

Well that's pretty cool. Make sure you build one that's comfortable to ride. That way you can actually enjoy it.
