Nice read to see the progress of the boofmobile since it was first bought.
Don't forget the aluminium tappet cover.

Nice 1200.. I'm still debating cutting into my dash for a Head unit, leaning towards the glovebox I think.
Is the old girl still sporting the 'dektite'??

Hey Boofhead,

This is a good read, very nice ride.

You are still holding out on the info on those lights though! Any chance you can drop a hint? Or even PM?!

Locked Out

Cheers,

Chris
