We are seriously doing the IMS show but I'm not spending that kind of money to get to one of the most expensive cities in the country...not when I can drive round trip for $120 for three to four people... Give us a call during the day so we can meet up. Sorry I missed Wendells last night...my sister came out from Lawrence and we were all pretty beat anyway. I hope everybody enjoys this christmas with their families! |

$73. round trip is the cheapest Amtrak alternative.I still want to experience rail travel to/from NY.May be a hoot,my wife describes it that way.She also noted first class gets free food/drink |

Hi, How are you guys doing? Is it still winter up there too? The roads suck down here, all salty & wet. I haven't ridden in over a week due to an ice storm that dropped a 2" thick sheet on my driveway. Been too cold for it to melt yet, so I've been walking to & from the stores by me. Getting stir crazy too, being stuck in the house with nothing to do but drink beer. Damn, I'm getting fat! Someone tell me a good joke or something so I can tell it to my dogs. P.S. I had no Idea that Eric was gay! (Message edited by saintly on December 23, 2007) |

Any of you guys have the knowledge, milling machine access and willingness to make my rear pulley look like these? http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show .cgi?tpc=47623&post=1033996#POST1033996 |

ditto.We guys' who've access to CNC machines even have to REALLY,REALLY,i mean REALLY WANT to do those kind of Custom machining jobs.And even when considering doing it by paying it's very expensive.Sorry,Scott |

Scott- I got a Dremel & a Black & Decker cordless drill... I'll hook you up. I have a back up plan that isn't to far from that Scotty - just thought I'd see if some of my machinist friends could hook me up before I do it by hand. I know you are kidding, but I'm not! Dremel will be too slow and too hard to keep the cut perpendicular - drill press and jig saw will get it done..... |

Yikes! You're nuts... Hope you have a backup pulley in reserve. (Message edited by scotty_j on December 27, 2007) |

Ditto on the 'nuts'...if you pull that off by hand...you're a much better man than I! Good luck!!! Let us see the pics when you get done!!! |

I agree a back up pulley or even a wasted one to practice on would be nice - I'll watch ebay for a cheap one......but unless the aluminum cuts like steel - I don't see it being all that bad, just time consuming. |

Holy crap, Tripp caught Bigfoot. Just when I was starting to think the 1125 was but a myth. |

CHOO-CHOO WOO-WOO!!! We're Sooooo psyched for the IMS in NY!!!! I got my last measurement of piston to head today.I went with the thinner (.01") instead of (.016") for maximum Compression.It came within acceptable limits. |
