Well !!!, seems obvious to me! The greatest bikes ever built were only the ones I wanted and bought. You guys have had 'em too, I'll bet. Even if the Hodakas forks bent, the Vespa seized, the Hondas carbs stayed stopped up, the Harleys leaked, the Norton never would start, the Guzzis brakes could not be freed up, the Ossa had no compression, the T-500 had a hole in the right hand piston, the Puch "twingle" wouldn't do ANYTHING, the BSA had a mean, violent, kicking temper, the Triumph electrics were, well, Truimph electrics, the Cushmans carb always hung wide open, etc., etc., you know, GREAT bikes, had to have 'em. Now, what is worrisome, I'd do it again. And no, so far the RE hasn't done anything wrong except the smoke if you don't TDC it. Now, that was fun.- - -and all true. John
