I was born in the wrong era!

1948 was the year racing officially resumed in Daytona after the war. During the war, hard-core racers and servicemen on leave showed up for "Outlaw" non sanctioned races held on the beach.

NOTE TO ALL THE KEYBOARD MECHANICS:

The vise is bolted to the bench through a 2 inch receiver hitch. Yes it moves a little, Cry Harder.

Yes I have Map Gas, Propane, and Oxy/ Acetylene torches, this method is another great option. And guess what, it worked, Cry Harder.

Yes, I used a Crecent Wrench, and it worked, Cry Harder.

Yes, I used candle was on a stuck 50 year old fastener, and it worked, Cry Harder. (After soaking it in penetrating oil for a week.)

It doesn't get much better than breaking something loose that's been together longer than I've been alive!

Also, what's up with the mad faces? Are you made that it worked or at your life choices?

The Bolt Buster and candle wax to the rescue!

Shout out to Kevin Thibado for making life easier with the Bolt Buster!

Last week I showed you a wheel with zero bearing end-play.
Today I'm showing you why. RUST!
This is why I always inspect Timken style wheel bearings when changing tires or doing a service.

This bike ended up getting new front and rear USA MADE Timken wheel bearings.

This weekends 38 Sport Scout scores.

1 40 tooth rear sprocket!

B 22 tooth generator sprocket !

3 motor mount spacer with the generator adjuster hole!

D original coil bracket that mounts under the tank!

I love finding original parts instead of china repops.

Thank you to Conner for helping track it all down and verifying that it's correct.

This 16k original miles 92 Ultra Classic came to me for a handling problem, a high speed wobble.

Could be the low tire pressure, but new tires.
(Who does new tires without repacking & checking timken bearing endplay?)

Could be the dry neck bearings.

Could be the leaking forks with original mud, I mean oil.

Could be the rusty front wheel bearing.

Could be the tore up rear wheel bearing spacer.

Stay tuned.....
