Electric Loopframe
« on: October 08, 2016, 05:14:10 PM »
Saw this at Barber today.  It's an Ambo packed full of batteries.  Have seen diesel conversions, but never an electric loop!

No. The owner wasn't that chatty.  Just said it was an Ambo and walked away.

Hey, Cam!
I would have said Hi Cam, but that's a whole 'nuther subject.
This is the time of year when I reminisce over how many times I promised to take myself to Barber.
I know you're having a great time.  Good fortune. Keep safe.  R3~

It was an awesome 3 days, AND I met EldoMike!  Hit all the nice roads down and on the way home.  My V7 Special has already carried me over 1500 miles.  Did the Cherahola today....

If have never been stop making excuses and go. If the world class museum, road racing, motocross, swap meet, bike shows (plural) and great people isn't enticing enough then all hope is lost.
