Michael Lydon I don't have them do that for me, although Online Metals, where I sourced the steel, does offer custom cutting. I have this, which makes...

(@scott-h) Setting them 90 degrees from each other as I did, in my mind, would allow up and down movement of the chassis for lean adjustments, but mak...

Some progress. Moved stuff around the garage to make room to build this, parked the bike in its spot and got it secured and level. Cleaned and inspect...

(@scott-h) Excellent question. This was my first ride 4 years after I got hit, 9 months after my last surgery, and just released from walking restrict...

Well, I guess that wasn't the final installment here. Cut up an old pedal to make a new one. Made it big, then cut away the parts that don't look like...

I guess I did it backwards, I ran mufflers on this from 81' to 92', when I sold it. Then my bikes seemed to get progressively louder through the years...

Here is a pic of the latest style adjuster on a 06' Harley Dyna. A model with many first year designs, and many first year problems. Self adjusting, b...
