Could use a stock front rim for Bonne/Scrambl/Thruxt if one is hangin on the wall.

Ba da Boom it should be jingling your wallet.

Could use the footpegs, pm sent.

Well the positive part is they caught two of them...From the Cal Moto Facebook page Memorial Day. "Dear Friends and Patrons, Unfortunately our Mountain View store was burglarized last night by professionals who rappelled in and out of the store via a skylight thus evading our alarms...

Came out very well! The west coast market is stupid hot for anything that vintage, hope you make some good coin on it.

Dig the swingarm, any thought of welding in thin wall bungs to add some strength?

Unfortunately Kari passed in 2010, but I also remember him as a good man and an accomplished poet as well. I was down at his old dealership last week looking at a used GS and it brought back memories for sure. In the Pines by Kari Prager The trees are always green here. My glance...

Vance & Hines makes a $3500 kit that comes with pipe,fuel controller, oil cooler relocator, number plate etc. for the AMA XR series racing. This one will get a quiet but good flow pipe and fuel map. Too old to hustle something this large for 30 laps anymore lol. My having a moto commitment...

Now to really piss off the crowd, I got this one last weekend. 2009 XR1200 with 1043 miles on it. Always liked the styling and found it by in central California in what turned out to be an all day misery filled transaction, but took the beatings to get it lol.

Thanks, it was a screaming deal too. Needs the usual old bike stuff, fork seals,rebuild brake calipers and replace anything rubber. Its back a bike or two in rebuild que, never enough time for toys. Come on retirement!

Any updates or new bikes? A 77 T140V kinda fell in my lap for a great price so its in the project line. 13k miles and dam near original including dealer ppwk.

Hope this still going together. Akronts and Borrani`s have dam near disappeared from swap meets out here. They have now become vintage fodder and change hands for hundred dollar bills. A couple sites have some repo and are prices decently, one is MikesXS page...

Been awhile since looked at this thread,glad life is coming along well for you. Back a page or so you mentioned replacing some bolts on your Triumph with stainless bits. Please research what grade they are as well as material before installation on critical areas. I found this out the hard...

Hi Allin! Been off here for awhile messing with projects and stuff. Sorry to hear you had a setback but glad you are responding to the treatments. Yes we did go to Bub`s again this year and I picked up 17 mph over last year on my old Kawasaki. Now at 128.704 by adding a 3psi fuel...

Got mine today, looks good. The extended seat bolts do hit so that is the next challenge...

I ordered one, will let you know how it looks when it gets here. 14 day return policy..eh.

When did we stop hanging horse thieves?

I run those (Dunlop 606) on my KLR`s and do not notice the things it does on the Triumph. Amazing what a little extra horsepower brings out in a tire.

Yeah, the Scramblers 270 crank sounded wayyy better with open pipes than the 360 does. If I can find something else to use the up pipes will go back on. The stock Scrambler muffler weighs 17 pounds!

Rode her around and it is real fun. Swapped pipes back as it sounded funky,too blatty is best way to describe it. Looking for some predators/staintunes/etc. to get some better sounds.

Interesting project. Hope to see you at Bubs, been lucky enough to attend the last 5years.

Norton was pitted next to us at Bonneville in 2010 and they set a record for pushrod motor that year. It seemed to hold together just fine. Other than that have never seen one on the street.

Someone rattle gunned the swing arm thru bolt on,probably ride a bit better without it being bound up.

Last year picked up a Yamaha Zuma 50 off Craigslist for 250 bucks. Only 700 miles and theft recovery from kids by the looks of the wiring harness (they jumped the wires to the fuel level gauge to try and start it). While I had it torn down figured lets make some more ponies so went with the...
