rebuild is off, sort of...

Fork put together and on newly painted frame. Queries about bars are imminent. What to do, what to do? 3/8 distance to be made for front motormount - knuckle aint a straight fit into a bentleg I found out...
Another small issue is getting stuff chromed... this time of year... but we'll see? Brake or brakeless front wheel? Questions questions... Got a neat 21" with a laced in neat small double cam Honda 450 drum. Think it would fill the slot nicely, but that will means axle worries I guess. Consequences, consequences.

A friend and former colleauge came visiting the garage today to sandblast (is that the english word for it?) som Cuda parts. His Cuda is a number of years in the making and is going to be something totally awesome when it comes out. It's going to be a 100 pointer or more. I'll try to get some pics of where he's now.

Today has been a good day - and that's important to take to heart. And to be grateful! I am.

The great outdoors!

Good ventilation is real important when painting shit... specially when painting shit. But even so when painting an oilbag and re-painting the frame cause you missed spots... Spring is good to us and keeps all stuff inside the garage from getting a shade of whatever paint yer using.

A great moment in time! 1999!

Three flatties on the loose around the frogsea in 1999. I think we did like 1200 km's in three days. And we had a blast. Men on my 47 with Flathead power jugs and lids to keep it from overheating. Freudo had my 46 U mill in his 41 (I think it) to keep him moving since the US-renovation he bought blew up after 500 meters the summer before. And G the old Zapster with the... G... ran like a MF...

Might have posted this pic before. Shit the same. It makes me feel good and now that the sun is back out here up north things are looking good!

slowly but surely...



...things might be coming together. And the summerlike weather we're graciously experiencing right now makes me wish I was further along the way... But thats never been the case all these years. So why this year. And I still haven't started in the Flattie chop...

Bad service and incompetence thy have a name!!!

I have never ever been met by a more stupid or rude person than the moron who worked at this place.

When I asked if I could get half a Lasagna for my 5 year old the idiot replied in a clearly aggressive fashion... And what do you want med to do with the other half?????

I know what you should do with it...
