Richard,

    Did you see the movie titled "The Worlds Fastest Indian" ?
It stars Anthony Hopkins, and is such a great story about a man and his motorcycle.  

  Certainly, we are all cut from similar cloth, but you may be Burt Munro reincarnate. To see you building your own composite housings, Burt made his own piston engine, rods, cylinders, pistons, etc. Such great creativity, like yours.
