Not a bad idea if I can find her twin at a good price... and you're right, what a wealth of knowledge to be had. That's definitely on my shopping list, if one comes up at a good price this fall/winter I do like what I see in your sig pic

that is my plan. i have two 1983 VT500c and one 1984 VT500c basically the same bikes. and one is getting bobbed this winter one is a parts donor and the other is my daily commuter.
