Glad to hear your still kicking. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif I've been missing all those vintage tractor pictures you dig up.


Now about that motorcycle? What you got, and whats you doing to it? /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

 

[Thomas]

Thank you sir..and I'll pass long your good thoughts also!

 

[Thomas]

Well Paul.
I had my crayons out for sometime now trying to figure out the m/c I really wanted since this will be the last bike I'll tinger in heavy.

The parts are starting to arrive slowly,but as soon as they do I'm justa wrenching away..if no more unfore seen boo-boos happen.

Ridge frame,38 degree w/4" rake,trying to stuff S&S 124cu motor w/a Bker 6 speed tranny in the frame..but it doesn't look good so I'll have to settle for 113cu S&S motor and 5 speed tranny..oh well,250mm rear tire,belt drive,just enough polish chrome, triple tree,and if all goes well around mid July..its alive..its alive..opps forgot to mention this muscle bike has ownly one seat,and maybe extra goodie or two later on.

It seems the old tractor are safe in the barns for now and no sign of mud season yet.

Hope you new born baby doing well,and your just about ready to turn the door knob on your new home.

Take care out there and let me know when the peepers start singing so I can get ready for mud season.

Here we were worried that something might have happened to you and you were just playing with a motorcycle instead of the tractor. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Sounds like quite a ride. Hope it comes together for you. I have thought of building my own bike before, but just have not had the right insperation. Plus just anouther vtwin will not do it for me. Maby an oid Vincent motor, or maby some kind of small custom built V8 using Gusey, or BMW jugs. Something strange like that.

Baby good[OK great, best thing that ever happend to me /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif] House sill a LONG way to go. Tractors on hold /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif[see house, and baby] but it will be good come summer, when everything is set.

I must say I'm surprised /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif I had these thought of someone on a nice mellow ride, hitting the corners hard on occasion, but just cruisin in general...

Now though /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif A ground poundin 100+ci tire smoking light to light racer? Cool /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

What made you go for S&S ? I've heard the Revtech's run good too. Know guys with both; they are pretty nice.

Did you go with a partial kit, or are you piecing the whole thing together? We're going to need some pictures... As it comes together, and as it runs!
