I understand now! Apologies! I'd agree with Teazer's first post. I had one with a dried up O-ring, replaced it and problem solved.

Don't run the fuel line without a petcock... Well, unless you want to fill your engines bottom end with fuel. The petcock leaks in the "ON" and "RES" positions? Sounds like it may need to rebuild or replacement.

Nice, I'm sure you could figure a way to haul a bike in it. :)

I've also just blown carbs dry with air to see how well it worked, pulled the bowls and they were completely dry. Might not work with all types though.

Remove the bolt at the bottom of the carbs, pull off the bowls and dump and dry them, then reinstall.

Matt, I usually use an impact on double nut, make it a lot faster too. What brand wrench was that?

Yes! Love the T series frames...

It's good to have a few extra parts..

I'm hoping to be ready to send out mid July, but not in any huge rush. FYI, the plating company I use, Burbank Plating is really quick, generally the parts are being shipped back to me within a day or two of them receiving them. Large USPS flat rate boxes are a great way to save on shipping if...

I like the Hornet Mike, I'm planning on getting a Honey Bee and hive representing the Beehive State (Utah).

What's He-man without Skeletor?

Bump.

Possibly a batch of Yellow Cadmium as well.

I'll be sending out Zinc again in July if anyone is interested.

Only things unique or from Utah are Fry Sauce (mayo and ketchup mixed) and green Jello with carrot shreds in it. Sigh...

I've had a lot of zinc and black zinc plating done. If you want a great finish on the larger pieces sand and polish them prior to plating. I usually polish or at least run under a wire brush, any large parts I have plated and large bolt heads that I know are going to be very visible. I'll try...

Welcome, the sidecar is awesome, I wish I could get my pup to ride in my sidecar. She's super scared of the bike once it's running though.. Was yours not scared?

Re: The 2015 Distinguished Gentleman's Ride - Four days to go! I'm riding and taking my oldest son in the sidecar. Salt Lake City.. Raised $400 at my work alone. Mounted a pintle on the sidecar for Super Soaker.
