Red Baron (Hessian Nomad)

This photo is cool. A man with his trusty panhead. When Lil' Joe first moved to Vegas, the main outlaw motorcycle clubs were the Hessians and The Gents. He bought parts and rode with them a little bit. His stories are the best. Pictured above: Red Baron (RIP)

1/4 Speed Breather

I picked this up from Tim(Negotiable) at the Sturgis Swap Meet. It's the 1/4 speed oil pump breather for an XLR, KR and KRTT. For prolonged high speed, high rpm race applications.
I don't have the pinion/bevel gear that goes with it. It will be larger (more teeth) than the standard gear - maybe you have one? Check your spare parts. Thanks !

Got the Knuckle runnin' again . . .

Once it got gas - two kicks - oil is pumping - smooth as glass !
