No the feeling. I started restoring mine this year, it will be ready by summer. I have owned it sense new in 1974. I bored it out to 1140 cc summer of 1975, kerker header lager main jet in the carb. Installed electric ing. Also installed a 16in rear wheel in back and painted the engine flat black and added an oil cooler. Yea, it´s fast.
I also went through the engine and frame every 30,000 miles. Everything worn was replaced. I have over 100.000 miles on it, yes over one hundred thousand miles! I love this thing. It has been parked while my kids were growing up. Now time to ride.
