Noot

Bryan Smith again !

Smith wins the Springfield Mile - edging Chris Carr at the line. Bill Werner and Springsteen take the credit for tuning this fast bitch. Carr said the Kaw was too fast to draft . . .

It's more than just: No Windshields & No Front Fenders
If you really want to know what it's like to be a rider. A rider of classic Harley-Davidson choppers . . . all the feelings you get - All the gas stops - All the bugs, winds, animals, rains, the earth, cold, hot - everything . . . just ask these guys. I always look over their machines. They are built to run. Precautions have been taken to make sure they run. And the few times I see them - and say a few words to them - they are always smiling.

Eugene

One of the coolest, nicest cats you'll ever meet.
(Just for the record, Bacon's knuckle is in that pickup box,
you just can't see it from all the stuff - if you zoom in, all you
can see is the sissy bar and part of a handlebar)

Coolest bike at Davenport

I kept lookin' around, but couldn't find the owner.
It was just plain ass bitchin' !!!

Can the tuner team of Werner/Springsteen and their Kawasaki

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 !

How to pack a bike

This in-line 4 ticked away like a sewing machine, steam rising up from all the oil leaks. The rider asked for directions, never shutting off his machine. After 25 minutes - off he went !

Magnuson

Not naturally aspirated.

Bake's XLX

Big Noot with the drag bike - late 80's, early 90's - former Pro Stock National Record Holder. Iowa corn-fed iron at it's best . . . (photo from the vault)

Holland is in my blood . . .

Nijmegen Gelderland is where I come from . . .

Anyone want to go in on buying this motorcycle before it goes overseas? You need:

1. North Iowa address
2. You have to know how to set solid lifters
3. You have to know how to time a magneto(wait, I'll do that)
4. You can't be SR22
5. You need a garage(no outside storage)
6. If it starts making funny noises - pull over.
7. Includes FREE Church of Choppers T-Shirt (maybe)
8. Maybe I should rethink this? My ironhead is runnin' good right now.
9. Saddlebags NOT included.

Seriously, only $13K ? I mean chics will be leavin' their phone numbers, handles like a dream, runs like a mofo, be the baddest on the block for once in your life - just do it !
