I'm back a few days now and between unpacking etc. I neglected to post here. Mainly to say a big thank you to Ichiban for his support. I'm afraid I didn't do him justice. I've put a supercharger on the Weslake and having a lot of fun trying to get it right. Had a lot of fun and for a brief...

I've been working on supercharging my Weslake for a while now. You think you're done and you discover something else. I finally got it together and fired up. A bit of tweaking and it sounded healthy...

This is too good not to post. I'm an unashamed fan of 50s. I don't know who the rider is but he doesn't hang around. http://youtu.be/1kBaZ1GdoUs

This is my '64 Fairlane 500. Bone stock except for an alternator. I got tired of the generator breaking brush springs. It has the usual 289, C4. Was the daily driver for about 5 years until I bought an old Dodge pick up. Now its just a cruiser. By weslake at 2011-12-01

I meet some friends on a Thursday morning for the weekly BS session. One of them gave me a handful of bike mags from around '71. I saw this in a CW '71 issue. Sure wish we could get things like this nowadays. I don't need 12" of travel. By weslake at 2011-10-30 Burrito was one of my...
