rotella has been recommended for many harleys and perhaps other bikes that have separate transmissions from the engine crankcase oil.

excellent job by sean at roc city cafe racers on making an alloy seat to fit my mid 60's triumph using stock hinges and hardware. a little trickier than bikes that have the much more common straight tube top frame rails. stock tank was painted by val at the Flame Shop. paint was done over 15...

good deal!

Re: 1948 Dodge for sale or trade what hapt 2 the pic?

any updates, seth?

congrats for undertaking such a challenging project. i think you are best letting the bike tell you what it would like to be as you work on it. dont force it into any one style, or you will risk coming up short on either. try diff fenders, bars, tanks seats, whatever. just mock up diff stuff...

Re: My new XS750... agreed. OT, but do any of yuz guyz remember Sweet Shop Louie?

TR6 update new shocks and rebushed swinging arm.

here is my last project. a BSA i hard tailed and made into my vision of an early 60's bobber. as i said, i unfortunately lost the pic of my last cafe effort, but here is an idea what i was doing.

i have a friend whom works at Bic, so razors arent a problem here. now if i only had someone inside dennis kirk i would be a happy man! dennis kirk had a lot of brit stuff on their discount web page. that was while ago. but one might check it out.

hey guys! its all good! we are all the same , ya know? i do have several projects under my belt, but many of those worked because of guys just like we have here. people pitching in. unfortunately, i cant find a pic of my last cafe project. not one of it finished. but so what? its past. i been...

thanks! i will need luck! the titan is a great bike! not as quick as the original machIII kaws, but really more ridable and reliable both. its one of my fav jap bikes of all time. best of luck back at ya.

i am in hamden, ct. i dont mind a thread going off topic. it maybe a week or so before i get more done on the bike. so let me say again, i dont have any issues with jap bikes and the folks whom are into them. i started on them. i currently have an H-1 i might do something with someday. i also...

they told me they are moving back to manchester proper. they got screwed by zoning up where they were. i went and hung with ray an todd at the hungry tiger after i left the bia dinner. i THINK they have a place in mind, but i dont want to speak for them. i come up from hamden, and really, i...

well its true that i many cases, cutting up a clean britbike is both morally and financially repulsive. but with all the basket cases and half built rollers around, it can be done. depending on the japbike, i wouldnt want to cut one up either. but as i say, depends on the model and year...

yes and no. that motor will go into this project with a single carb head. the frame was a stock T120 with a BCS plunger rear section. i was in the process of trading both out to a dear pal, whom since passed away. that frame was still titled to me. the guy died suddenly, and his daughter was...

this is the tank that will go on the bike. actually i will use those bars as well. its mocked up on another project in the pic. it will have the badges. i cant find the pic of my fresh painted frame. so i will post that some other time.

yes , brit bikes seem to be in the minority here. i have my thoughts on that, but i will keep them to myself for now.

some states accept a notorized BOS from non title states. new jersey is one i have sold bikes to and the guys registered them. i did NOT have to register them myself first. i have registered pre 1981 bikes here in Ct on just BOS. not even notarized. no safety check. but they will want to...

thank you men. i was fortunate to get the wheels and tyres for this build from Dragon. as such, this machine will be in part a dedication to him. as to CW magazine, and the forums, i subscribed (still do if any of you want the issues before i burn them, lol) since the late 80's. i was a...
