Different looking and I like it! I have sent the link to my laptop so I can watch the video at the library. (to slow out here with my internet usually)

I like the cantilever shocks too.  Very neat ride!

The way you have the cantilevers set-up it looks as though it would have a decreasing motion ratio.........

Yah, I think we all have wife issues....  On certain days anyway.  ;D

Looks like that thing really goes!  Looks like it needs some wide open spaces!

I like the wing.  Fabr knows his lumber...

I looked at that pic for several minutes before it dawned on on me what was really getting my attention! So far as wife issues and spending money. I can honestly say I have never had a problem with that. It's MY money and she has HERS. We each do as we please with the money we earn from our businesses.  Simple.

Dude serious?  Money issues with a woman saying what can be spent?  I have heard these tales but have yet to see them in my world.  Weird.
