Engine is scrap as far as I'm concerned. Decent chassis, nice tank, fair rims. Lots of usable engine parts, but the bottom end is locked up solid. Will not part. You want it, come get it. I'm 30 miles north east of down town Memphis TN. No papers, so she's parts or a race project unless you...

Need a couple parts, maybe somebody has a dusty relic in their junk bins? I hope... 1961-67 build dates. Left side cover, paintable steel preferred. Centerstand. Front fender, or the mounting cage for it. Steel preferred. Shoot me a pic and a price including shipping if you've got...

Going through some of my raggedy old junk. Turns out the old 1/2 shell I painted to match one of my bikes has a Snell 1968 approval label inside of it... Manufacturer unknown, the maker's label just says Made in Japan. Anyone else ever run across a Snell approved 1/2 helmet? Seems a bit odd to...

Less than a week from ordered to installed on a hard to find lever set. Thought shipping and handling was high, until I got the package. Heavy duty box, ton of packing peanuts. Could have set a Kenworth on the package without damaging the contents. The roughly one dozen stickers and a 10% off...

Does anybody else think we need a stickied list of members who can help out a fellow DTTer if they are broken down? I've got tools, trucks, small shop, full blacksmith shop, emergency crash space... Willing to cover a radius of 50 air miles of Memphis TN. I work odd hours, but can have a back up...

I'm not going back through all its various cut down and high bar incarnations. As of this morning, the bike has taken on a rather late 40s vibe... Road King bars, Titan front wheel, unknown gas tank, quickie solo seat, Harley half moon floorboard set. Fishtail pipe and small steel pack muffler...

Finally did it this morning. Swapped a Titan hub and a tls brake plate in place of my stock disc brake front wheel. 6 washers on the right, 5 on the left, perfectly centered tire. Adjusted the fender gap, rolls cleanly, no rubbing. Brake stay bolted to the upper caliper mounting hole, the stay...

Been looking for a bit over a year. Non-bike but, gotta do what I gotta do. Mid-level management type gig. Had to lose the long hair, have to keep the ink covered. Held out as long as I could for another bike shop gig, but the scene around here is slow... at least I'll have money to finish my...

I know I can buy this tail off the rack, but does anybody know offhand a source for a thinner version? I know I could cut this one down or lay up a custom version, but, if there is a thinner off the rack variant... Love this bike, is currently my desktop background. I'm building a dark green...

Found out a good friend on another forum crashed Friday afternoon. 30 mph, front tire on his Sportster blew out or came off the rim. He's in the hospital with 4 breaks to one shoulder, and has a compound ankle fracture (bone through skin for those who don't speak medical). He said the bike was...

Stock headlight shell with large oval speedometer. Off a 1963 bike. Needs an aiming screw and spring. Mounting ears included. Want a standard gaugeless headlight that takes H4 insert bulb. And generic headlight mounts, don't like the stock sleeved type. Straight trade only, not interested in...

1996 model, only electrical deviation from stock is a sealed battery. Has power to the key switch, all the lights work. However, I seem to have no power to the fuel pump, horn or ignition switch. To date have disassembled and cleaned the contacts in: key switch, kill switch, ignition button...

Hosting at my place, which is 54 acres. About 1 hour north east of down town Memphis. Open to 2 bike boards and a 33-60 flathead 6 Mopar group and a 61-71 Dodge truck group. Set to run from the 14th or so until the 21st. Should be side rides to Shiloh and Fort Pillow Battlefields, Graceland...

Last weekend started teardown on my 1949 Dodge 1/2 ton. Engine swap, 230 cubic inch flathead 6 in place of a 218. Two springs being removed from each corner. 2 tone paint, dark blue and cream. White wide wall tires I traded a set of chrome valve covers for. Period correct spotlights and...

I moved back here to get away from that crap... Last weekend was nice enough to do some painting and wiring work. 90% chance of precipitation, winter driving warnings from the Memphis news programs. Started spitting light snow before lunch, has been off and on all day. No accumulation, but the...

Left side. NOT the chromed version (I hate chrome). NOT the hyper rare aluminum version. Just a plain old beat down but can be fixed steel one. Thanks.

1963 250 Scrambler. Honda 18" wheel rear TLS conversion from sometime in the 1970s (at least 2 owners ago)... Front 19" wheel/brake will be 500 Titan to replace a standard 19" sls front wheel. Current tires are Goodyears from the 1970s, 4.00-19F and 4.50-18R, no idea how the previous owner...

My "free" CL72 is the first old metric I've found with matching engine and chassis numbers... not a few numbers different so close enough. I mean the EXACT same numbers. And does ending in 0001 mean it was the first for that model year? Or just that they ran out of the first number string and...

1963 CL 72 250 Scrambler engine. Had been kicking through fine, good spark, would kind of run, rough and erratic, but it ran. Has sat with oil/atf and diesel in the entire engine, including cylinders and valve train, since it quick kicking through. I can pull the plugs, drain the engine, put a...
