On a road trip with my wife and seems I brought the wrong bike…at least for Sedona. Started off paved, turned to gravel (perfect for my grinder), then single track, followed by me walking/carrying my bike through pretty technical stuff as I...
I recently got a carburetor in for rebuilding with a note from the customer saying that it had a flat spot after the last shop worked on it. Now those of us who've fussed with carbs for any amount of time know that there are many, many reasons...

I removed as many emblems and parts off...
Found an original tie rod end clamp bolt and put a Cruiser Cult/City Racer coolant overflow tank on over the winter. The bottle is a later version but keeps the coolant contained and is easily reversible.
Since the mixture screw is the same setting from factory and you can't get it to idle, something was installed/setup incorrectly during rebuild. I wouldn't recommend chasing the mixture screw as the factory setting will be more than sufficient to...
Still just doing my 70mi daily commute, truck is doing great. Took a small break and ran up to Spokane/Coeur d’Alene for a ve-pump motor. Decided to stop in Pendleton for a burger and a beer…one of my last decent burgers and beers until after...
Thank you both! I haven been helping a family member deal with a sudden cancer diagnosis. Unfortunately it was caught too late and we are just working to make sure they are comfortable. :( One of those terrible life lessons on how fast things can...
