Well - It's good to see that MY secret to the long life of a lot of my *Junque* is not really a secret. Hahaha!! Tune it, love it, get it right and DON'T F@#K WITH IT really DOES work. Maintenance is King, here .... Heck - I've managed to put 40K klicks on a raggedy DNEPR by doing that - and I've never had to walk home (although some say it'd be FASTER to do so ... heeheehee!!) I'm not near there yet with the old Blue Belle .... but I hope to be. One day I'll be on here, bragging to the "whippersnappers" that I got me a HUNNERT THOUSAND MILES on my Iron Barrel ....
