That's where it looks like it's heading Lucky.

I'm conflicted tho.

A friend stopped by yesturday, had a guy with him that was real interested in what I had going on.
Maybe some of the good mood that comes with starting something for the first time rubbed off.
I wasn't trying to sell anything, just talking bikes along with where and when this one came from.
And what it is gonna be.
The guy asked what it would be worth, hadn't even thought about selling it, heck,
if I have 600 in it I'd be surprised.
I thought about the hours I've got in it, and what the bike is, and said "around 3 grand."
Now he wants me to call him when it's finished.
I found another one already, it's waiting in the back of an old gas station.
An '81 K model, missing a headlight, good paper, the guy wants 500 but told me to make an offer.
Winter is coming.
3 grand, I bet over the winter I could dig 6 of these DOHCs up for 500 each.

Do I keep this one, a bike with 2400 miles on it, or sell and really go at it with Spring in mind?
