Its almost that time again.....

yes, winter is almost upon us again... in just a couple months start snowing and salt will be everywhere and all that good stuff. but it has me thinking, while snowboarding and ice racing 50's can keep me enterained.... i need a winter project.... i want to build something. something i have to piece together and rebuild or something. something that will take month upon months to do. but i have no idea what.

last winter i built my 600rr (had to swap the frame)..... while that only took a few hours, finding all the parts took forever.


any ideas?

i have all kinds of crazy tools and have no problem buying more if need be, but have no ability or capibility to weld

Hmm... I think itd be pretty bad *** for you to get a wrecked ducati for el-cheapo. Spend the winter rebuilding it. Ive always wanted too. Never found the time or patience... or a wrecked ducati for sale for that matter. Good luck with the project tho dude. Hope you find something.

make a kick *** go kart with a crotch rocket engine in it. that would be a lot of fun out on a frozen lake if you get it done fairly fast.

welding is very simple, just takes practice. go out and buy yourself a second hand wire feed and pick up some scrap metal... Start practicin!
