107. Every car USA, every m/c Japan.....

Jul 2012

95 saturn Sw2 Spring Hill Tenn. only has 128k miles, using all Amsoil oil & coolant & lube I expect 800,000 miles easy.

82 Suzuki GS1100E Japan (w/ megacycle cams/wiesco pistons, Falicon crank, Mikuni 36mm mech carbs, Dyna Ignition system & much more..) goes over 170 mph, 33 mpg, premium req. Rated best M/C made 1980-1983 & #1 drag racing engine for 20-25 years!

95 Suzuki RF900 Japan, & stock, comfort is not yet ironed out but speed limit riding = over 50 mpg & 87 octane gas a-ok, only goes 165 slow as new 600's but this is being made into a touring machine.

No harleys ever, to many owners gave me the finger in the 70's-80's. And stolen too often.

Old cars...2 more Saturns, a LeSabre , a Celebrity, a 71 catalina , a 70 GTO. I think thats it.
