Noot

Torque Fest . . . a bit more.

Can't really say enough about this event. Heard all sorts of opinions . . . had to find out for myself. My total grade for this deal is an A+. If it was broke from before, they fixed it. I went to Viva Vegas the last (2) years - and this is better. really super cool. Only in Iowa !

Square Boards . . .

I told this guy I'd put his scoot on my blog, but the pics are kinda dirty (and I hate blurry pics), but here goes anyway. He had it set up neat - Way Bad Shovel Chop ! Runnin' 'round Sin City . . .

Bay Area Style

Hey Klein . . .

. . . "he's such a dapper lookin' dude ain't he ????" Hey, why don't you come ride with me June 2nd to the Knuckle Shuffle? Got anything goin' on that week? Maybe get Jeff to go? A couple more good folks . . . maybe, just maybe . . . might be fun? Oh, it would be a blast !

Hi Fi Red and Birch White

Camera Shy . . .

PBRs in Keokuk . . . poor Cheryl . . .

Rocker Arm Oilers . . .

Chains, Belts and Aviators . . .

Bike names . . .

Linkert Manifold Adapter

Whoever made these did a great job. They are even tapered from end-to-end. You can now run a Bendix or Mikuni (with flange adapter). Nice !

Big Noot & Tator

. . . discuss the latest news . . . and what Jeff Wright is doin' . . .

Bore Gage Breakdown

Had a problem with our Standard bore gage. Can't work on stuff if I can't measure it properly.
Big Noot took everything apart and fixed it. Whew. I hate down time.

Very Important . . . and very True.

You must true each flywheel 1/2 before reassembly. In this case, the sprocket shaft was +.003 to 4 out at the bearing race location. Too much. We replaced the sprocket shaft. Now? Dead Nutz !

Packed (for a Mojave Run)

S.H.P.A. (Shovelhead Pinion Abuse)

My wife said . . .

"No more motorcycles parts in my new stainless sink . . ."

(But, this is Jeff's and she's at work)

'52K is back runnin' . . . break-in time

Rake It . .

Another configuration of the same motorcycle . . .

People keep shipping me stuff . . .

Girls Nite Out . . .

Loyalty

Stripper Shampoo

Willie G's idea of wrinkle black cases - this was not designed to come off. After a hard days work, come home and take a bath of paint stripper, carb cleaner, brake kleen, parts solvent, spray paint and silicone sealer. I always smell like chemicals . . .

Gonna try & make a Silk Purse . . .

Love Cycles

Jeremiah's got a neat shop. Just what he wants - and a real swell bro. I really enjoyed my visit. If you're ever in Phoenix, check him out on N. 7th Street. You can't help but like him. A real genuine builder with Harley vintage chops . . . His shirts are neat too - I've worn this sweatshirt everyday since I got it. Still a bit brisk here in Iowa !
