How's is going!

Post by courville »

Hi all,

My name is Chris (age38)
I live in Worcester (pronounced "Wursta") County Massachusetts USA
I live with my lovely wife "Ali", cat "smokey", and dog "Fox"
I'm the Operations Superintedent at a nearby Electric Utility.
I have many hobbies, which none am I a master of.
I like to:
mountain bike (have a Trek EX7 Fuel)
Snowmobile (1979 kawasaki Drifter 440, 1980 Kawasaki drifter 340, 2001 Polaris XC 700)
Street Motorcycle (1975 RD350)
Build and Ice race minibikes (Lil Indian, Murray, and RAMBO..a frame up custom I'm working on)
Trail ride with my Friends (1999 Kawasaki 250)
Ameteur AMA sanctioned hillclimb racing (custom 1989 Honda CR500)...taking this year off, will do a couple of races to stay active
Old lawn tractors (Jacobson, sears, Ford)
Disc golf (lots of fun and almost free...have to buy discs once and a while)
Old military vehicles (1974 Mecedes Benz Unimog 406...Ex-German military airport tug)
Basically anything else with a motor..

I ordered Chinoy's Ignition system for my RD 350, just received it from Economy Cycles, and ready to install it. I bought it a couple of years ago. It was being build as a cafe racer (see pic) Motor was done up out in California, however I'm returning it back to a road bike.

Happy to of found this board, and look forward to interacting with ya all

Take care

Thanks for the kind words.

The motor, rear sets, seat, clip on bars, are all from Moto Carrera in Ca, USA. The motor is one of their stage 2 set ups. Right now it has a PVL ignition with no lighting coils, as it was setup to do vintage racing. I am returning it to the street, and am headin out to the garage to remove the PVL and install Chinoy's CDI kit right now with complete new harness and everthing. Wish me luck
