Sounds exciting, anxiously await.

Long story short, Billet wheel turbo didn't go as planned, as of right now it's on its way back for an inspection, and the sportster is back to sitting.....again.

I've been preparing my Virago Bobber and cleaning it up to get it ready to sell, and it's 95% of the way there. Just need to get a few small details squared away. Once that bike sells, the funds are going to go towards buying and testing a Genuine Garrett Turbo. I'm in talks with a a new turbo supplier that says they can convert the them for $250. The turbo's are $800 pre-tax, so after everything we're looking at $1,100 for just the turbo. Ouch.

That said, if it all works out, it's better for both the customer and myself if we have higher quality components. This sitting without a bike sucks, especially when I have a shortlist of "ready to buy now" prospective customers who are just waiting on me at this point.

Just a waiting game now.
