I am trying to get them to go to Road Runner but there is one hold out so I'm not sure where we'll end up but it's one or the other.

I swapped the front spindles & hubs out for some Z-400 ones. Then I had to modify all 4 A-arms to accept the spindles. This gave me a little more negative camber. I also changed the pre load on my front shocks.
I'm going out to Grays Well for a few hours today to see how it handles. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed.

Ok, if I can find a gas tank for the zilla, then I will be there. Let me re-prase that. If I can find a gas tank, small reed intake, carb to filter funnel, new plastics, & a new pipe.... then I will be there. Don't ask ... lol

I got a 500 gas tank if you need one, $20
Has OEM gas cap, petcock, & rear rubber grommets, needs front rubber grommets which you should be able to rob off your current one.

You crash again?

 Not really a crash, more like a very hard landing. I went over a 12' drop off &  pancaked in. Somehow my knee put a mild dent in the pipe (1.5" high x 2" wide x 1/8" deep). The gastank didn't like the hard landing so it **** all along the back side.
The bike still rides straight as an arrow & nothing structural got tweeked so i'm really happy that my revised new front suspension is able to hold up to the equivilant of being dropped off the roof of a house with a 180 lb rider. I think it's time to tear it apart now for the cosmetic overhaul (new powder coat & chrome). The other parts were already plumb wore out.
Bret, i'll take it!

Tell me more. There is no crease, just a gradual shallow spot.

Brian are you coming this weekend we're all headed to roadrunner?

For the rest of you it's confirmed we're all headed to roadrunner even the AZ group.  Some will be out there Thursday morning, I'll be out Friday early AM and some will be staying until Monday possibly.
