Argh ... that is going to leave a mark

He might have been ok with the "backflip" but the entire wheel/tire assembly across his back at the end ... OUCH!

Once I knew to double click the magnify glass it was MUCH better! Unbelievable bikes on display ... going to add this to the must do list!

Anybody make it to the Long Beach Show this past weekend? I'm hoping to make the show somewhere this year. I think NY City is next stop but not worth the hassle to get in there! Maybe I can do Cleveland but that's not till the end of Jan. Been looking at an enduro machines and Husaberg is now merged...

Try again. I monkeyed with the link. It works for me. I have it set to "Public" Working now ... THANKS ... now to go find my favorite! Wish the pictures were bigger, is this a Cushman? http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x187/johncallin/Vegas%20Auction/th_DSCN1627.jpg Wow ... 4cyl Indians ...

Here are some pix that I took. Sorry, I only took 115 pictures ;) http://s187.photobucket.com/upload?location=Vegas%20Auction I wish I could figure out how to make them bigger Shit ... I got excited and clicked on link but it won't allow me to see pictures. Not sure why, I don't have experience wit...

Bill -

The part number for switch is SL134 (Napa). They're cheap ... I paid $11.34 with tax!

Maybe Jack will jump in here, I remember he changed his pressure switch to an electrical setup ... I think it was a Honda setup but don't remember exactly. I think it worked real well for him.

Bill - BH uses a pressure type rear brake light switch. There is no adjustment that can be made. If it is working with heavy pressure I would guess either it is starting to go bad or maybe you have some air in the line? I know you were talking about bleeding brakes in another post ... or I think you...

Thanks for your service and all other veterans

If they allow pictures I know I'd like to see some of the more "rare" models ... I'm sure others here would too!

Jack -

When building my Boss stroker the AL block weighed 95# and I believe the cast block was barely shy of 200# ... I don't remember the exact weight.

Now that's funny Dave ... how many AL engines have you sold!!!???

Not sure I would find a use for this, couple reasons why. First off I like to have my weapon on my person ... I can't see a situation where I could ask the "bad guy" to hang on, let me pull over and stop then giive me another 10 seconds to retrieve my weapon (sure can't access while riding...

My personal opinion on AL block engines is while they look awesome they require more cleaning and polishing as Bill mentioned to keep them looking good too! They are lighter weight wise, while I have not owned one in a bike I have ridden a couple bikes with AL blocks ... noticeable difference in wei...

Beautiful bike Dave!!!!! Watching Bill's video looks like a lot of fun too ... I guess if they let you guys riide Boss Hoss' and Kawasaki's maybe they would let me ride one of my Beemers :group_hug: If you remember, give me a little notice next year! http://v-man.org/Gallery/albums/1973-R60-5-For-Sa...

Ricky is doing good, saw him and had dinner a couple times while I was down in October. He is a land surveyor and was doing a couple jobs in the Daytona area. He was in town the week after Octoberfest. Ricky did sell his Chopper last year with Stan's help. He doesn't have a bike right now but I know...

Jeff - Very nice ... I wish I could weld like that! My welds are plenty strong but they're ugly ... booger welds! I'd like to see some pics of the front tank and the hidden compartment too. I'd like to check it out sometime in person ... maybe when Spring rolls around, I ride out past you pretty oft...

Dave - Well it took me a couple days to be able to watch the whole video ... GREAT find, thanks!!!!! :badtothebone: I always had a blast playing in the dirt, in fact I'm in the process of deciding (always over analyze everything) between a Huskvarna, KTM or Husaberg ... I still have a few bones that...

Thanks Bill, appreciate all the effort you put into the site. I voted for the "new" look ... easier for me to read anyway!

Happy Thanksgiving To ALL ...

Happy Birthday Clint

Thanks for the info Don. I noticed that the EB has 8 fuses. I see the screws to connect the wires to the other side but not where the fuses slide in? If I go with Blue seas I would want the 5029. Is there any way you can find out which P/N yours is? Mine currently has the Bussman and has 10-12 fuse...

="V8Bikers"]Is this the one? http://www.starmarinedepot.com/Blue+Sea+5029+ST+Blade+Fuse+Block+With+Cover.html?gclid=CL63uLWb5rQCFUjZQgoduxYAgw It does not say that it is waterproof but its on a marine supply website. Also, does it mount up to the same holes? Hello Bill - I should have loo...

found the problem. When I pulled the fuse for that circuit it was not blown but did not feel as tight as the others in the slot, bent the prongs slightly and it has worked fine for several days now. Bill - I'm sure you know this already, you've been around awhile. The fuse block that BH uses is tot...

That's great news Barry ... thanks!!
