Not a bad catch...

Tho most of it didn't come from the swap meet. '54 tanks and buddy peg mounts.

Well, I made it to the swap meet

It was fair. Had a few vendors with old parts. Just gotta look around the bagger bling

Never give up

Look at this picture and think about it alittle. This grey beard is still young at heart. He may have traded in his chopper but never his passion.

I'm back up

I got my generator back from cycle electric in the same shape I sent it to them. They would not warranty it tho it still had warranty left. I know right.... So I rebuilt it and took some material away in the cradle area. Then I shimmed it enough where I could just slide the idler gear on and off with the genny mounted. So generator round 3 here we go.

Be thankful

Despite our nation, government, probable rise in taxes, current economic downturn and not having a Christian as president I still have alot to be thankful for. I have God, family, friends and a job. The way I see it is Thanksgiving always marks the "holiday season" for me, so eat drink be marry ride your chop and love your family. Happy Thanksgiving you chopper faggots!

Harley concept ..

This is righteous!!!!  This is a prototype 45 OHV. I believe it was assembled in '39. And was tested hard but to many resources were going to the big twin OHV development. Man, could you imagine the possibilities?

I'm having sever troubles with my '51 genny. The cases have never been repaired there. I've shimmed and went back to 1/4" bolts and even tried to put it in then slide the gear on after shimming. Something isn't right and I can't see it.

I miss my old shovel

This was my first generator bike and damn was it clean. Its the only stock (ish) bike I left alone. Man, she was pretty.
