Good to hear you going all out Jim... Can't wait to see the Vandit in action....

I just put another alternator in my car today... Autozone pos wasn't charging at idle.... Thanx to Terrible I got an oem one and it works perfect...

I'm in the process of getting parts together too... Brand new green is coming soon.... Got an o2 housing already... I need a stock mani to get ported and coated.... And that's it... Hopefully second week of March.... Would like to do cams at the same time.... Hehe

Yeah, car batt goes on the tender in the winter, as does the bike battery. I got 5 years out of the battery in my GSX-R, but can't with these Odysseys. I spoke to the guy at batteries plus for about 20 minutes today, and he said the lead acid cores that Odyssey uses don't react well to being trickle charged or being on tenders, and that you can't let them deep discharge, or they are done.
