Lucky Tim...

...has joined the STILL KICKING blog team. This crazy fucker rides the piss out of his sportster, got hit by a semi, kept the rubber side down, and lived to tell the tale. If you see him, buy him a beer.

Get a Bearing...

I pressed out the steering head bearing races on two Hondas I'm working on. One, a budget build due to a tweaked frame from 3 crashes and fuckin Lucifer is still alive... and the other a racier build for myself and soon for sale. Or maybe I'll sell the Kawi, who knows.

Since I'll be using a Yamaha R1 front end, plans include a new stem to fit 750 neck and bearings, derake the bitch and move it forward and down 1-1/2". I got this bike with the backbone hacked off, so it gives me a fresh start as to how I want to redo and reinforce the existing frame. I'm thinking Norton featherbed meets Multistrada. I've been collecting bits and pieces this last year, and the wheels I found fit the bill and will work with the R1 front rotors after some tweaking. Front is a 19" 5-spoke mag from a 80's Virago and rear is an 18" 5-spoke from a KZ550. Before all this can happen, I will start making an adjustable frame jig. Wish me luck!!!
