Shovelhead

Can't get enough of this bike....found on Bubble Visor

Gettin' it!

So Matt decided to post this picture on the 'book and claimed that it's what Mike and I will look like in 40 years. What's amazing is that this is dead on. Straight up anti only no pro ever. Can't won't.

Strippin'

Shop Work

Finally got into the '68 to find out why it's jumping out of 2nd gear.


Timing side apart with transmission removed. Forgot to check end float before pulling. Damn it!!


Transmission out on the bench


Disassembled. The gear dogs are pretty worn and the cam plate was just a bit worn but really just didn't seem like a good cut. Really harsh lines and sharp edges in the tracks. Luckily I have a spare '70 trans that I'll swap a few parts with. The '70 has a thicker cam plate so I'll also need to use the cover from it as well.


Clutch side apart, since you need the clutch out before the trans can be pulled.


Time to reassemble, check end float and possibly take it right back out ;-0

Auctions

While the rest of the internet post photo's stolen and otherwise of fancy auctions in Las Vegas, Carmel or any other playground for wealthy douchebags, the CycleGoons give you this guy....because like the CycleGoons, he didn't give a fuck about fancy auctions either.

FREE AT LAST! GO AHEAD EAGLE HUNCH!

Still on tour and not blogging much, so here is a photo of a camera that I think looks cool.

Cycle Goons Ramble To Steel Valley Vintage Drags

First year for the Steel Valley event so low turnout, still a good time. Cool bikes, found an awesome little time warp town and tavern followed by possibly the best road in Ohio. A couple dudes even let us ramble on their quads while they wrenched their KZ1000 back to life....and failed.

Power

We look and wonder......

Damn Right!
