I really want to make this happen on my bike. they look so sexy. i dunno. These carbs look kickass

Hello again. I didn't have much time to do things tonight but sanded the epoxy on one side of the tank smooth and a compression tester came in the mail! Also another thing came in the mail as well. 3x 33,000uF 50V capacitors @ $3.95 each from apexjr.com (not on his website but he has them)...

Like this ;D I am curious. For racing you could have the tool charger and a gutted tool to plug the pack into the bike and delete the bike charging system. I am not sure how many Ah you need to complete a race fully....

I was thinking trying to use a Lithium 12v power tool battery pack for a battery.... could this work? i've already deleted the starter motor. hmmmmm -eric

Looking at purchasing this to stick down to the seat for padding. I may make several seats with varying amounts of padding that I can switch out if I am going on a long ride with more padding or short jaunt/race padding. What does everyone else use for seat padding? -Eric

I had some time to tinker on my petcock this evening. First I wanted to increase flow into the bowl of the petcock. Boring the holes into the bowl to a diameter of 9/32". This was the exact size of the new 4 hole rubber seal in the rebuild kit that I got. Starting with the hole entering the...

Not too much has happened since last update. I received my petcock rebuild kit for the tank and will plan on doing that soon. Also I will bore out my petcock a tad to give maximum flow. I epoxied my tank on one side and put a coat on my seat. I have damaged it and exposed it to too much...

Small update. So I noticed some rust coming out from under the tack welded side badge mounts on my tank. I had to nip this in the bud. I am going to fill both sides with epoxy and repaint. i think... Also got some exhaust flanges off of ebay. Old. New That's it for now. Cheers, Eric

Thanks for the advice. ;D I have too many projects as is anyway.

I figured with the motor in pieces it is hard to tell if it is a runner or not. What price would be a deal, but not insult the guy?

What would you offer this guy? http://burlington.craigslist.org/mcy/4904312672.html

Truing stand 2.0

I reset my Honda speedometer. Not sure of the legality of this action, but I never plan on selling this bike. So this is a quick video I took showing how it is done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ysq_5PxGW7k Cheers, Eric

tach block off plug! also here is the process of how i built my seat pan. I decided to do a two piece unit. the seat pan then a rear fairing. a one piece seemed too complicated and i was still in the process of deciding how i want it to look and if i wanted to have the option of a brat/...

OOO boy, got the wheels laced this eve. I hope when trued the spokes do not stick into the rim and require a little grinding. I will need to build another jig for truing. maybe a little more accurate than the last time where i had less than 1/128" hop or wobble. this time the spokes won't...
