And you thought we spent too much $$ on bike?

Glad you decided to keep the S and slowing returning it to its glory.

Good for you, where is the top coming from?
Jeff,, when you have the hardtop do you ever take it off for some topless driving?
Levi
It is coming from Missouri.

I never took the top off last time I had one. If I didn't find one with the OEM hardware kit like I did, I probably would have ordered the bolt in brackets that make the top not removable without taking bolts off. I doubt this top will ever come off once affixed. I have long held that if the S was offered in coupe form, I would have gotten that instead of the vert. The option will remain though, in case I ever get the itch to go top down. If ever, I could see it off on a nice summer night but never on a hot sunny day. I don;t like baking.


Ben, your bike hobby is still way expensive!!!!

hmm, that is some expensive ball bearings. The probably rival prices of bearings used on aircraft. Looks like regular huffy bearings though.

This one will not be sold. You can bet the farm on that

They will have to pry it out of my cold dead hands along with my guns

I'm not a gambling kind of girl but I might change my ways, I'd make a few bucks on that bet someday.

Well, I will tell you this. Only way the top goes is if the car goes. Looks like I am hanging on for a while now

I may be able to sell other parts and change things around, but I have come to learn that I NEED the top!!!
