I say you can ship it to my work, I'll uncrate it and it can sleep in my covered parking at home with my Bassa until you get here.

I promise not to put much more than, oh...(calculates commute, occasional weekend spin) a thousand miles a month on it.

That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.

Since I bounced this off the front page it's only fair that I bounce it back again. [mtiberio] was understandably not entirely comfortable with my putting thousands of miles on his bike, just as I would have not been with somebody else doing that with mine.

So if anybody has suggestions please help him out.

[mtiberio], can I at least get a picture of your bike, so I can know what I'm missing out on ?  :grin:

I am north of SD about 1 hr drive. If you want to ship to me I will keep it in my locked garage. When are your travel dates.

I have some garage space as well after having sold my CalVin. If you'd like to ship it a bit out of your way to the LA area I'd hold it for you.
