[FRIZZLEFRY]

I will be there and my wagon "should" be there too. I'm hoping to have it up and running in the next 2 weeks. Hopefully get a couple of shakedown runs in and then I'll be set.

Cool

Lookin foreward to seeing you driving somethin on the trail ;p

Lets just say I overheated less

I need to get this figured out before Dusy in Oct

 

[FRIZZLEFRY]

So I cruised up this fun spot at the beginning of the Coyote Lake trail and the guys takin pics said I went up too fast to get any good pics

So I asked the guys takin pics if they wanted me to back down it and come up again.They said "sure".I dont think they expected me to back down and come up again ;p

Good times

Agreed. Me too.

I can clime the 4-lane faster towing than I could drive it.

I was doin 60 up the 4 lane on Sat. morning
The only way my piggy will ever see those kinda speeds is riding on the trailer ;p

I had hoped to have some fender protection before the Dusy run next month but it aint gonna happen.I will just be extra careful

I tried to get good ones of the piggy by the fire with no flash but its hard with a not so good camera

I love the 55! I noticed the hood locks up front. My hood needs something like that to stop it from rattling when bouncing around. Do you remember where you purchased them from?

I am almost donme with my 55 and just got a bit more motivated after seeing this!

Thanks

I got the hood pins at Kragens.They are pretty nice because they are stainless,not chrome plated steel like most I have had.

SSSWWWEEEEEEEEET Pig!



But I hate those v8 overheating problems! The pig is my very favorite LC body style EVER!!! But if you don't put v8's in them they are slugs but if you do put v8's in them they overheat! That and the lack of creature comforts is why I'm in an 80.

I finally fixed my overheating.A few days before I ran Dusy a couple weeks ago I threw on a mechanical fan (with no shroud)and a hood scoop.And I cut out the hood under the scoop.Never hit 150 on the trail,and didnt break 100 on the road from Hunnington back to Shaver.I need to put the thermostat back in

And for those who dont make it to the 60 froum
