5562, Well its time to say good bye!
Posted by MWC, May-27-01 05:17 AM
I am not one to write long post, so this will be no differant. :(
It is time to move on and travel down a differant road.
No I am not buying another import, or domestic car. In fact I am buying a crotch racket. :)
As some of you guy's know already (cuase you were there) I blew my motor again on the dyno yeaterday. :(
I am at a lost as to why, but have lost my desire to go foward. The first motor caused me to miss this season, and now this one will cost me the DSM shootout. I have already reserved "some" goodies from my car for those who were there at the time to share my darkest hour, but I will have more for sale within the next weeks. Please no questions as to why my motor blew, Cause I dont know! Good luck to all you guy's and enjoy your rides as they seem to be a dying breed. Keep the 420A spirit and dream alive. I tried but could not seem to hang in there.
SEE YA!!!!!!!!!!MWC

The face of adversity rears it's ugly head once again...sorry to see ya go MWC, but the bikes are really fun. Check into a new Honda F4i, helluva nice bike. Be careful though, and read up on performance motorcycle riding techniques before going crazy. :)

Sorry to hear about your car bro...hate to hear you'll be throwing in the towel to, but i can understand what your going through. Be sure you get some good locks for the new bike, those get stolen about as much as cars these days. Good luck with whatever you do man, and keep in touch. Later.

It's said to hear that you're leaving us. I could certainly understand your frustration with the buildup, rebuild and tuning of your car. Sometimes I feel that way too. For what it's worth, you've been a source of support and leadership on this board. Good luck on your new quest for speed and life.

Man too bad your car was tight! I'm sure it woulda whooped ass at DSM Shootout. Well hope you have fun on that crotch rocket. I'm pretty sure you can't haul many groceries on those though, well not as much as a 2GNT. :P

That REALLY SUCKS!!! I'm sorry that happened, I feel your pain. We will all miss your much appreciated advice and support!!! I hope you get the bike you want and everything works out for you. You should get a Suzuki Hayabusa ( or how ever you spell it?? ) That's the sweetest bike I've ever seen!!!
