Too many here this year.However, I'll try get em all done but one.
Have to do a bottom end swap on the wifes Suzuki 650 Savage and typical maintance and a new tire and belt on her 440 LTD as well. My Kat is on the table this winter for maintance and a few upgrades. I haven't done a thing to her since I got her so I figure this years the year..
I also have a ground up project going. It's a 77 Kz 650 that is taking on all new goodies.Front clip, rear clip, motor work, new metal work and maybe a few other things as well. I'll post this one in the projects section towards the middle of winter when I have some thing to show of her.

I'm sooo jealous. I'd be even more jealous if it was a 928s (my favorite Porsche ever)...but your project is soooo cool.
This winter, I'm working on the $1100 seven fiddy from new york ciddy. I will probably wind up stripping it down to the frame and finally learning about engines, the hard way.
You want a Porsche? The kid that has it never did anything with it. I tried to sell him my BMW but he bought the Porsche and I don't think he can afford it.
Plan on cleaning the carbs' and putting in new fork seals, and new tires on.

My favorite is also the 928, but way too expensive for me, i picked the 944 up pretty cheap.
