Yes...I did hear from Dale just today! The TT pipes are going out of production because of the low demand but he said that he would do another run up if he was able to get enough people interested. The only catch to this is that the pipes are going to be $440 instead of the $350 that they were getting sold at. That is a little too rich for me so I highly doubt I will be getting them. As I suspected as well, there is a center stand issue with the TT pipes and some modding would be involved in order to try to keep a center stand. I don't know about you all but I am pretty much addicted to my center stand much like how a cop is addicted to donuts! I don't have a large work space where I am living right now and that center stand is very convenient and that is not even considering how nice it is if you have problems on the road...I'm keeping it.
Soooooooooooooooooooooooo....plan B. Make the '67 aubergine and white Bonnie, just not the TT version. I will just keep my TORs on it and thanks to this forum, this is what I have coming:
eye badges
air box to do my own removal
stock signals that I am going to cut down and make sleeker
I have the stock black side panels and a trip to the vinatge sticker store so I can clear cloat the "oil fill line" on to it. I have a set of stock fenders on hold that looks like I am going to be able to score. A buddy of mine over here does his own chroming so I will chrome them out to throw on. So it is looking pretty good right now and I am less than $200 into this, all from stock parts. The last big item I need to hunt out is a carb'd T100 tank. I don't care what color it is or if it is chipped or if it has been key'd. Just a tank in good shape with the eyelets as I don't need the badges either. If I can hunt this down then I think I might be able to make a nice Hinckley aubergine and white Bonnie...hunting it down is half the fun!
