Thanks, Ted. But, don't be sorry. I'm not. Big V twins are the only kind of bike I ever liked. I still love to look at them.

My thrill now is big 2 stroke outboards. I've got an old 21' Allison XTB that has run 87-88 mph, and we're in the process of putting a Merc 260 on an Allison XR 2001 Drag. It should run well over 100.

A buddy and neighbor of mine set the record for a single outboard on a multi-passenger boat a few years ago. He ran 151.5 mph in the Savannah River .....upstream. Measured by two GPS speedometers.

The thrill is back .......
