I've got an 84' Guzzi and we call it a woody.

Hope some people got the reference. Decided to go wood, red oak with rosewood stain, for the side covers and when I start the new tank the sides will have the same. Wish I had thought of this before, might have had the tank done before the Kansas rally.

You might start an arms race - the next fellow could go for redwood, or dashboard burl from a Rolls Royce.
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.

Plus you'll always have a cutting board for those impromptu lunches where prosciutto & hard cheeses need slicing!

That songs been stuck in my head since that thread was posted, thank you for going there first.

I don't think the rally is going to live up to the rest of the lyrics, though   :evil:

I almost made a dash from wood.  Have thought about side covers.  I have a full wood shop and am a little surprised how few have thought to use wood.  Pics afterward please.

Definitely. Hope this new tank build comes out as nice as it looks in my head.
