The monday that was

Me and Dave-o started early Monday morning working. Dave-o had to adjust the belt on the van.
We picked up our buddy Dozer's cousins bike to do some work to it.

Also on the to-do list was pull the Panhead out of the frame.

Dozer's cousins bike hasn't been ridden in awhile so the carb drained predator blood

My SU carb off the motor

The exhaust off the bike

Primary gone

No motor

The pistons were only .10 over with original HD pistons, I have some .20 over HD 74c cubic inch pistons to go in it.

The rod bearings were shot.

The complete Panhead disassembled

An almost good Saturday and Sunday

First off Wade and Kelly I owe you guys, got off work went to go get the big grill to bring to Dave-o's and put my phone on the rear bumper, well as you can see I forgot to get it, it made the trip with me and got destroyed when it jumped. Thats why I couldn't be reached Sat. night.

So Kyle re-worked this fender for Chip and added to the ridge in the middle.

The plan was Chip to come down from Richmond and give his Panhead a makeover, new tank, fender, and sissybar.

Dave-o torching it

Kyle chopping some of the fender off

Sizing the fender on the tire. Well after all the work we did nothing worked, the fender wasn't radiused for the tire and not working well, we talked Chip out of the tank, and no use in doing the new sissy bar but it does look sweet tho.

Sunday we ate breakfast and went for a little scoot before I had to come to work.

Good to see ya Chip, sorry nothing got accomplished except beer drinking.

Mountain Fest

Chip, Caroline, and Stan rode to Mountain Fest this year looks like a good time was had and some kool bikes too.

The Rock and the return of Shadetree racing

So this is your invite to see the knarliest drag racing on the east coast. The koolest time camping with Shadetree and some of the best eating you possibly can handle. This is where it all began for Shadetree, racing at The Rock in Oct. Maddog used to bitch slap the AHDRA with his jockey shifting Herniator, Booger dragged his Knuckle to high speeds and Nitro Mark tore it up in the Nitro class.
I stole these pics from Speed and Kolor, thanks Casanova. This is the old Maddog ripping it up.

Well Maddog has gained weight, got married, and gonna become a dad. But deep down he had the urge to drag race again, so what did he do, he bought the Herniator motor back. Took some time but him and Dozer have built a sweet frame and are getting this rocket ship ready for October.

The Kiyro Muri is alive.

Mail Call again

My complete gasket kit for the Panhead

S&S oil pump, this is gonna let my mind rest when riding, woundering if I'm getting oil to the top end

And new filter foam and a rain sock for the sporty.

The only thing that sucks is I had to pay for this shit so its kinda like Christmas but not really.

RULER

Coming home from the beach with the family the other day we ran across this cat on the side of the road. Turns out he had just got the bike running and was on the test ride (no brakes).
He ran out of gas and was pushing. We hooked him up with some gas and a bottle of water. He showed his appreciation by firing the bike up and ripping down the road next to us at just under the speed of sound. Dude was high on the world and killing it.
