August 2013 Bike of the Month

[FromMaine]

This months winner has to be one of the most determined members on the Board. Despite 2 engine rebuild projects not ending well, to be polite, he perservered a third time. During this time some members were advising him to "stop wasting parts' or to "buy another engine". He took all this with a sense of humor and patience which I have to admit I admired, and he just, well, perservered.

Along the way he took the time to post a number of video tutorials and How to's. I am still finding new ones as I read up on his restore. Many thanks from all of us for taking the time to do this. So..........

Congratulations Jon, (JonHawaii) your 1984 V45 Magna is August 2013's Bike of the Month.
