I have lost count on how many years, its way over 10 years that we've been caravaning to Run Ruidoso carshow.
Its that time again, in less than two weeks. You know the drill. Oct 2, 9 AM at Edge of Texas Steakhouse meet up and caravan with us, then from there we'll head to Mad Jacks BBQ then to Inn of Mountain God's Casino through the Lincoln forest, after that its the parade through the town.
Come and join us, so much fun, with good peeps.

Panhead adventures. SoCal.

Was a very long day, after a full day at Bornfree motorcycle show, traffic was blocked off due to several accidents, so we headed to wait it out at cooks corner, then back through the canyons.

I'm happy with the tuning, which makes it a one kicker.
For the last couple weeks I been throwing miles at it, alone with the other bikes I've been working on to make them reliable for the upcoming trip to PCH, and the panhead reunion!

Happy Monday! Machining a pulley system to incorporate the panhead to my original open primary belt drive and transmission, at the same time having a bearing support. The nut and adaptor was first made as a prototype making all the necessary adjustments, then made a single piece for strength and shaft support. Im very happy how it came out.
