Heart Throb: Ann Margret

Ann Margret could be anything you want. The ultimate babe.

No gain with polished flywheels

Jerry Branch said that he found no gain in horsepower from using polished rods and flywheels over non-polished units. The gains (if any) where insignificant.

Louvers

Nobody makes a cool air cleaner for an old Mikuni. I'll go nostalgic.

Dennis Hopper

Did you know he was originally from Kansas? . . . and that he once married Michelle Phillips?

That breather is totally trick. I never thought about that - or saw one done before. The intake is paper-thin. Anything for extra horsepower - and an endless supply of parts from the factory when shit goes awry.
(you ever use the word "Awry." ????)

How to . . .

Wrap your headers. Nice Job.

EL Gordy

Cases together for total goodness . . . original pump with 1/4-24s all functional now. She'll be a runner !

Chvrch Mail

I had to hang the new postcard up next to my desk. Just a few more pop cans . . . and I'll be able to pay Jeff for that bike.

Mullins Kicker Pedal Review

Review: Fast Shipping. Quality Product. Solid. Quality Construction. Cast Aluminum is High Quality (when I sanded the outside edge - aluminum is hard and non-porous). Grooves inside pedal housing retain grease. Quality machine work and hardware. Very nice - I'm very proud to use it on my panhead. Looks awesome. Thanks Brandon !

JJ Kicks Ass

Who gives a F&%* . . . I love Joan Jett !

Be nice to your girl . . .

Wanted: 18" M&H Slick

Glass Packs

" Destroy and Rebuild . . .

Kelly's tranny had "welded" rollers (not spinning-see the flats). Countershaft junk. Surfaces breaking up. Missing (3ea) thrust washers. Bushings totally shot.
He said, " Actually, it shifted fine . . . !"
This could only be a Harley 4 speed. The best ever.
Starting the rebuild with fresh Glyptal.

Hux? A distant relative?

Don't you think this guy kinda has that Hux-type-o-smile? He's got that nice "hey you MF'er" like he's got something goin' on that he wants to tell you. All in a good way. Darrel, where ya been? Cool bike. Cool pic.
80 Incher FLT with fiberglass batwing - totally cool then - and now.

Crazy Bike

Looks like somethin' outta Sweden or Germany - plate says, Ohio.

Roller Bitches

What is it about girls bending, leaning, screaming, grabbing, poking and touching each other on rollerskates???? Come and see for yourself as the River City Dames of Anarchy battle at the

North Iowa Fairgrounds in Mason City, Iowa

this Saturday, Nov 12th at 6:00pm.

Total Goodness . . .

. . . love that dress - those heals. Yum Yum.

The chop rocks too !

Eddie Glass

I really like my Nebula album.

A former axeman of Fu Manchu (who I like too)

Kinda Cool . . .

This Sportster is very custom.

Looks stock, but there's a lot of work done here.

I like how the cocktail waitress is losing her dress a bit . . .

Alva

Note: Alva is the guy I stay with in the black hills. He had motorcycles for years. Rode in many Jackpine Gypsie events . . . and has many stories to be told. Like the time "Sturgis Justice" was upheld in a local eatery. A jealous husband came in to confront the "gardener" who was having a flirty affair with his wife. After the gardener told the husband to split or "get beat up" . . . the husband finally left. He returned and shot the guy dead (in the adjacent booth from Alva). Sturgis Justice sided with the husband and he got let go. Moral of the story: Don't mess around with married women from Sturgis.

Cable Fray

I've noticed my bike making this very slight clicking noise when I wheel it back and forth. I thought maybe the sprocket was getting worn, chain? . . . it's coming from under the sprocket cover.

Better check it out.

HEY - Cable was breaking up.

If this breaks - you go flying ahead into something.

Notice: If it's not right, check it out . . .
Ride Safe !

CK Print

Hey Bacon . . .

Micro Twin

McFarland is building a complete micro v-twin engine from scratch. Here are the cast iron cylinders I finished honed to 1.002 dia. for special pistons. The pistons will have a rubber o-ring for compression. He will manufacture the complete engine (4 stroke, overhead valve, single cam) from the cases, crank, rods . . . to the cylinder heads.

Honed

Gordy's connecting rods are ready for assembly.

Where should we park?

Street Shovel

. . . parked at the bar.

WLA

" Hey numb nuts . . . get that thing sanded and let me sleep ! "

38 mm

Anybody got a cool little air cleaner for a Mikuni 38? I probably should've went with a 40 or 44 or a flat slide - but the 38 is the first Japanese carb they used back then - and it may just give a bit more torque and economy than the big ones . . . ?

First, a little dew . . . then frost . . .

. . . . then snow is next. Millville, Minnesota
(that was fun this year, Pat. Tell Ted "hey" for me)

Wind Tunnel Tests Confirmed . . .

. . . the best place for most efficient air slicing is with the left hand just above the lower triple tree. To see Parker draft at Springfield confirmed these findings. (from my Camel Pro Series archives)

"It's all there . . .

It wasn't all there - It was missing many pieces like:

(2) thrust washers, all the loose rollers (needs .001 over), the lower case studs, the kicker cover studs, the main sealed roller bearing and spacer, all the kicker gears, spring, stud, nuts, plugs, counter shaft bushings . . Oh, and the wrong thrust washer behind the kicker shaft . . . " It's all there " - famous words of somebody trying to sell you something.
