First pics after pulling it in the shop

2001 - bought it used and haven't changed anything yet. Currently on the way are some riser extensions though as the drag bars hit the tank and I don't want to commit to any real purchases before I've determined a good direction for the bike. Previous owner did the drilling to the muffler. I had not realized that wasn't a standard issue detail until reading on this forum. I've got a welder though and fully intend to correct that. If an engine displaces less than 6 liters or won't turn more than 10k rpm, nobody benefits with it making a lot of racket.

What's that car in front of it? Is that a Troy Bilt Junior (I own one...I put a new motor in it three years ago. It's over 20 years old and I'm the original owner)?

It can't be a Delorean.... too skinny.
I want to know too!

Nah, that's my DeLorean.

//that is my friend's Troy Built tiller. We're putting in a new garden and he loaned it to me. My current mower is the Murray lawnmower that my father bought from Wal-Mart in 1988. I've rebuilt the carburetor once several years back but aside from an ignition issue that just cropped up last week, I've not had any issue with it. I'll tear it down and replace the shaft key and test the ignitor when I get time later on this week or so.

Ya, I had problems with my mower and weedeater at the start of the season,
they BOTH started.

The license plate is a dead give away.

Couldn't read it in the first two pictures.
Custom liscense plates can say anything - assuming that first letter is a "W" would have just been wishful thinking.

Dickey, is your car complete with Flux Capacitor?
