One could always just have every last piece of a bike powdercoated and have the "best" and/or "longest lasting" finish of all. At some point, you do reach a point of diminishing returns. Personally, if I still own a bike when a rattle can paint job needs re-done, chances are I'd be ready for a...

Free? Dang I need to start hanging out where you guys pick up used tools! :)

Would you like to double your money? That is a sweet mic for just $7! 8)

While I would not build or ride a bike that still had the swing arm and just struts instead of shocks, I see nothing wrong with a legit fix rear frame, so long as the seat has some form of movement. If I were still young and had not had so many orthopedic surgeries, I would still have a rigid...

A 1979 Kawasaki KZ400 that I made a nearly 12 hour round trip to pick up last week. Engine is seized, points cover and kick start pedal are missing and it has old RTV oozing out of nearly ever cover on the engine. Pulled the plugs and poured in a little marvel mystery oil. Put it on the back...
