Yup, for sure. I retired at 48 and thought I’d be able to complete some projects. Nope. All kinds of time, only one kind of money. None.60something wrote: ↑Mon Apr 30, 2018 6:17 pm...a truer word never spoken. Having both at the same time is the trick.The biggest problem is time and money/

Awesome, can't wait to see what you come up with. Do you have any numbers to compare with a KX300? I really think that's the direction I want to go with this one.

Re: Project Clapped out 1998 KX250... what works?
Cool, that was what I thought you were going to say, pride in workmanship... Rare these days, but I have a guy I take my stuff to here in Temecula (he's actually in Murrieta) and other than myself, he's the only one I've trusted for years.
