    Good Bye

    Yeah, this is a good one. I'm going to keep a video progress thing on You Tube and I'll share that as I go. Did one installment and maybe another one after today. Going to have the car towed from it's barn to my place. My wife is pitching a major bitch about this for some reason and she is...

    Good Bye

    I sold the Gold Witch today. First time in memory that I have not had a motorcycle. I'm buying this, an 84 Corvette. Long time dream to own a Corvette and it is finally happening. I'd love to say I have had a blast on the Wing, but it has been so much trouble that I think it was possessed...

    Torque Specs Stator Cover

    Thanks Dan. I meant to say I had them at 9. I had this motor out a while back and had changed the gaskets then, but the clutch basket started to leak. I'll go around them again. After this is all back together again I'm going to sell the bike. Want to use the money to buy a Corvette I've...

    Two Stroke Motor Freeze

    She's already complaining that there is "something wrong" with her dryer. You know, she can use my scroll saw anytime she wants.

    Two Stroke Motor Freeze

    I got to the clutch and all of the plates looked new. It turned out to be a PIA putting it back together and getting a circlip back in. I am circlip challenged without a doubt. I have decided that the piston looks okay on #2 as it cleaned up quite nicely. I'm just going to replace the rings...

    Starting my midlife crisis, here to soak up information

    You should get that bike with the packers sticker. That'll get you far. I'd rather have a 49cc Chinese scooter. Run that up and down Route 61. In winter.

    Barn find !! (Mikey!)

    First pictures I recall seeing and it really looks nice. I like the blue a lot, especially on the top of the shocks. The chrome, engine cases and seat are all in great shape as well. It is is worth the time you're taking getting the motor right. I am working on a pair of Kawasaki KE100s. I...

    Starting my midlife crisis, here to soak up information

    You're in luck. I have an 82 for sale and I'm in Terre Haute, IN. If you look at my posts I have done about all a guy can do to these bikes. The bike is beautiful and runs like a top. (whatever that means) Here is the CL listing...

    Two Stroke Motor Freeze

    I used Dawn and hot water to clean out the crankcase. Then rinsed with hot water and used the wife's hair dryer to dry everything out. I have filled up the case with oil to just let it sit and not flash rust. There was very little crap that came out of the crankcase as I was cleaning it out...

    Hello. My first Goldwing 1978 GL1000

    Recently read an article in the October issue of Rider magazine about Tasmania. Looks like a beautiful place with great beaches and mountains. Friendly people. Really enjoyed the article and it looks like a great place to ride.

    Two Stroke Motor Freeze

    Checked out the charging coils yesterday and they seem to be fine according to my guys at O'Rielly's. One of my customers with dirt bikes gave me a good condenser and a set of points. They are not the same but he has a ton of them. Has some flywheels too and I'm going to take mine by and see...
