Ok- ya'll have convinced me.  The scoot stays!  I have spent so much much money over the last 5 years on either scoots or cars, that I was delusional in my thought process to get the Camaro upgraded.  I guess I will take it day by day, eat hamburger as someone suggested and do it one day at a time.

Glad it's not a vette, wouldn't have one! What this car is (for those who don't know), is a fine piece of mechanically engineered machinery.  I for one am blown away by the amount attention to detail that the GM engineers have built into the automobile, nothing like my under engineered MOPAR retro POS that is now someones  head ache.

Sad thing is, I think I am done with building the scoot, all except the crank being pinned and welded-guess it's time for a winter project  :wink:

later,
Tre'

I doubt the Slomaro will still be in production in another year!  My guess is it will go the same direction as the last generation of Camaro.  Too much $

Tre'_09UC I'm not doggin' you but I just don't get it why someone would need 420 HP to do 70mph on the Interstate let alone 600 HP.

Keep the bike because you will enjoy it more than the knowledge of having 600 HP under you.

Tre, I am with the gang, keep 'em both and just let the newness wear off the car. Before long you will find yourself back on the bike some nice sunshinny day just a grinnin' and thinking what the heck was I thinking, selling my baby? Then slap yourself pretty hard on the face and make sure you are awake and it wasn't just a bad dream.
Now like Dennis said, Get the Hell out of OK!! Yee Gads man!!! The best part of OK is seeing the Leaving Oklahoma sign as you pass into Texas. Go hit Texas Hill COuntry Run with the gang from Texas and all that anxiety over selling your bike will be gone especially when you see gramps take one of his flying leaps over the jump on his bike with Hippo following, airborne and you will know the world os once again a good place. LOL Spidey.
You can ride my hoss, Ride my woman but don't ever ride my bike.

Hate to see that bike sitting in Oklahoma rotting away. I'll bring it to Colorado for you, keep it well oiled. Then when you blast over to Colorado in your Camaro you're bike will be here for a short ride.

Mike, take the motor out of the SS and put it in the UC.  If BossHoss can do it, so can you...good winter project, eh?  lol  Best of all worlds, a 420HP Ultra...nice.

We now return you to earth.

Take it from someone that owns 2 Harleys, 2 Corvettes, 2 Boats, Several Dirtbikes any many other toys. You just never have enough toys. I ride the Harleys all year round. Boats in summer,dirtbikes in winter. Newer vette as daily transportation, old vette as a hot rod. Im only im my mid forties but when im a old man I will never have any regrets. I will not be the guy that sitting in the rocking chair saying I wish I should have done anything. If I make it to old age I will have that same damn grin on my face that I have today.

Damn Harley parts made in China!  Not an American Scoot anymore.............Just saying

Spidey- Love you man and I have seen the light!

Last project was 704HP 713TQ- You would not understand.  :hyst:

Dennis- Fire Mission !!By the way thanks for send the corrections and getting me back on TGT

HarborJohn- I agree, I have no regrets, I love my toys!

I can't believe anyone on this forum would question more power in a vehicle - car or bike!! Did they miss all the cam questions? Or "How can I get a little more power out of my new Harley?" questions?
Tre', when you get the resources, supercharge that SS within an inch of it's life! Do they make better cams for superchargers? Get 'em! Tub it? Re-gear it? Do it!!
Just 'cause you can.
But do not sell that bike! ....Maybe a turbo for the bike? No, that would be silly, who would want to do that? :wink:
