Anyone here remember the unleadad Amoco gas? It was water clear, and 100 octane. No ethanol, the southern boys were still drinkin' the stuff.... How about the Sunoco 260? Again, ethanol free.... Wouldn't it be great to get a couple tankfuls to run through our VMaxes? I'd bet a lot of the...

I'm on the fence on this build, but I do admire the work. :clapping:

This guy who restored this bike is a local guy to me. I've been in the talks with him about tuning my vmax this winter on a dyno he has. But the locals know him as a hidden gem. He is an amazing engineer and can build about anything for a bike the way it sounds. He's got cbc machines. His name...
