Here is a little update on the status.  Been waiting on parts which have been on back order for some time now.  It is looking 1ike I might be able to get things up and running here by the end of August.  Still cant start it up because I have to replace some coolant hoses and yup... they are back ordered too.  I put up some pics later tonight of my current progress.

Call up Leon @ Carolina Cycle, I can''t advertize this guy enough! Carolina Cycle is a site sponsor, and Leon is a member here that is awesome to work with. They have the best prices I ever found and they also...have the parts

Not sure if you can get your money back for the other place, but I guarantee that you''ll be happier with CC

Hmm... they are cheaper by a few bucks.  What is their policy for shipping, I wasnt able to find it on the site.

Just call the 800 number and ask for Leon. It will be well worth the call. I had a large box of stuff shipped once for maybe $12 and yesterday I recieved my clutch kit with a bunch of other little things for about $6 I think. Leon''s awesome to work with and I have never had any issues with them.

AAARRRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!  This is getting extremely frustrating!!!!  I just found out that my chain & sprockets are back ordered for at least 5 to 6 weeks.  Seems 1ike nothing is being supplied for the ol F3 anymore and everything is on back order which is weeks in waiting time.

Damn marc that bike is CLEAN.  Glad to hear you got it running.

Good time to put an HID kit or f4i gauge cluster on

WOW
that bike looks brand new, amazing job
I would give you like $300 (low ball, lol) to do this to mine.
My dad hogs all the garage space with shelves and all that serve no purpose (not even cars in our garage) so I could NEVER do this.
I might try to steal some of that space during the winter, or just hang a tarp outside and start
