Unfortunately no, can't you tell with all my posts I don't got nothin fuckin better to do. I was plannin to get some parts for my motor when I did my taxes last weekend. And like on tuesday when I was gonna get the check I jus got a call from H&R Block sayin the Federal is withholding it and I had to call here and there to find out why. And I guess they took it all for back child supprt, motherfuckers. I was pretty pissed most of last week cause I was counting on it like Christmas ya know?

That's cool man, you got em all wired up too? But the question is, is when you gonna ditch the single for that DOHC motor u got collecting dust?? You'd be orgasming if just the fogs make you happy. Were all here to help you if you need answers to any questions you may have bout it, but its a pretty easy swap.

You really don't need any high end mounts for the swap stock ones will work fine. Fix the wheel and swap the sleeping horses you got, there ready to roam free and run the streets. They told me in my dreams last night, they told me to tell you to let them outta the stable.
