Street Chopper Magazine's 40th party

We rode out yesterday afternoon to the 40th party, and the bike ran pretty good the whole day. It was in Garden Grove at Henry's, a nice place, but kinda small. But that's okay, the beer was cheap, and the food was really, really good. And the best part was the pretty girls that were there! I met one of the owners and she was really nice and concerned that the customers, us, were taken care of. There was lot's of bitchin' bikes to see, I wish I could have stayed longer. I should have, I had to… Continue

The economy and time.

Money is never falling out of the sky and right now it's almost as hard to find as time. Giving up bikes is not an option so the projects continue on. The race season starts this weekend in Byron Illinois, the CX has been brought back to life and runs the streets at 50MPG even if it's not the coolest wheels on the strip. The GSXR1000 has been set up as a straight drag bike, tires and clutchs went up in price again so no more street riding this year. The 7/11 is almost ready for the street, if… Continue

Conesville Iowa.

A big wet mess with drunken fun thrown in. Drag racing naked chicks and more that should just never be talked about. Out in the middle of nowhere thousands of people doing what they do with no one watching over their shoulder. Crap food bad beer loud music, you really should check it out some time.

You can't see it because the bars are in the way... but I bet there's a smile on my face. Hope you had a good weekend, because I sure did.

Took the heads off, diggin' it!

I took both heads off early last week and cleaned them up. Put new copper gaskets from 'The Chopper Place' in Riverside- 5 bucks each not bad. Tourqed them down and broke cheap ass 9/16 socket. Don't buy cheap tools. I buy craftsman, at least I can replace them. So I had adjusted the heads so the S&S intake manifold was square, and now she runs so much better, and HAULS ASS!!! I love it when my bike runs right. Life is good.

INFIDEL LIVES ! ! !

INFIDEL LIVES ! ! !, Got busy with the air brush yesterday. It was problematic because tape would not stick to the nylon tank. I tried a lot of different things, bottom line....I wound up freehanding some art on top of my vinyl lettering and then pulling it off like a stencil. I've only done one side thus far because I'm not so sure this is going to stick. It took a lot of clear and seemed to be soaking it up, I'll be going today to try and color sand… Continue
