Glad to hear you had a good time! I assume that the bike was very well-received there.
How many miles was the whole adventure? Is it dumb to ask about fuel consumption?

Re: 79 Dragbike resto
Bike got a lot of looks parked on the main strip , parked it on a corner by a crosswalk so it got a lot of attention was kinda surprised at one point there was around 7-10 people admiring it, and to see motorheads on their knees looking real hard at it was a great feeling , Took 2 motorcycles with me in the trailer so most miles were at the lake did around 120 miles and one tank of fuel , close to around 25mpg is my guess, my other bike is always 25mpg also. It is very impressive when throttle is twisted, Pulls Hard ! Got a Go Pro camera last week i am going to do some video , If it ever stops raining here in New England

Great look, Gregg. I think the most eye catching part of your whole bike is the spoked wheels. Who has spokes on their CBX? Very unique look ... that only real CBX weenies would even notice.
Enjoy the Summer!

Hi Mike,
Thank you for asking. All is well here. George is back to driving again and training new drivers. I think I know that he may be moving to Tenn. to be closer to his daughter and grandkids.
Very Best,
Phil
