...and I've still got my 550 waiting to be put together. It still needs some
hard-to-find parts though and I'm broke so there it sits....

They call me - 'I've got this Nighthawk, do you wanna buy it?' What can I
do? it's an obsession, a sickness.
At least I don't fixate on triumphs or BSAs or Kawasakis or Yamahas or
Suzukis .... so much any more.....
My wife just said that's a lie, I do. (She obviously snuck out and looked in
the garage!)
I can't help it, what should I do?

Okay but I have a 550, two 650's two 700s and a 750. I have to get
friends over just to ride them for me.

So, do you think I should keep my 550 then?

It's a shame to let it die. The 550 is one of the rarest of
the breed. When it stops, it'll be a whole lot more work to repair. If you even
want to. Whatever...

I've put 6K mile's on it w/o any problem's
The odometer says 30K
After I bought it, I noticed the speedo & tach looked
brand-new, compared to the other faded light indicator's
Who knows how many "real" mile's are on it
It was $850, but I still feel duped!
I'll ride it until it fails
I don't rev it much past 5K
The enjoyment that it has brought me over the past year is
priceless
All I've done is change the oil & plug's
I bought it when gas was $4.20 a gallon
I didn't ride for 15-yrs because of my Ex
I told my Dad a pilot, "Could you imagine not flying for
15-yrs?"
The pic's are what I worked on in the 80's & my Dad's
homebuilt "Baby Ace"
If I have to, I could do a rebuild at my Pop's place.
As Spicoli said in Fast Time's , "My Dad has a killer set
of tool's"!
It was a beautiful day today riding, after hurricane "Bill"
passed
