    mods vs rockers

    Really haven't met any British Bike posers,most of the guys I have been to events with are the genuine article,some of the old timers have owned there bikes for years sometimes since new.If you look on this board most everyone on here wrenches to some extent on their bikes.

    The only time I use the tender is in winter months,when the bike isn't being ridden.This time of the year I don't use it and I have started up on 40 deg mornings with no problem other than a rotted squirel condom one morning causing the bike to be tempermental.Check connections,if have a multi...

    Norman Hyde mufflers

    Thanks Rocker,there are a lot of muffler choices out there,I mainly like the look of the NH as opposed to some of the others.But I also want the right sound,that 270 motor has a nice sound and I want to hear it in all its glory.:)

    Open-faced helmets?

    My Fulmer came in but it was a little tight,so the parts guy ordered the next size up and he is going to let me do a side by side comparison.Helmet is nice though,it goes great with any British Bike,hell if they made a full face version I would buy one for a full time helmet.

    Boy do Cops get the breaks

    Sounds like the guy didn't get away with,but when his case was appealed there were extenuating (hope I spelled that right) circumstances and his job was reinstated.This happens in many other lines of work other than law enforcement,especially when a union is involved,but some states have appeal...
