Somewhere in the wilds of N California there is work afoot in a secret workshop.Here's some spy pics.Just starting install.I labored today in the terrible weather(sunny,65 degrees--very hard)     | ||

So Jim, what'a you going to do? Did you get the stuff for the kids bike? How about the turbo and related parts? -JW:>  | ||
| Henrik |
Jim; you just have too many toys ... Henrik (no, I'm not jealous - and the weather sucks here) | ||
| Mikej |
Henrik, Turn the S3 into a Streamliner. | ||
| Turnagain |
is that a John Deeeere back in there? bet it's got some modifications too.  | ||
| Phillyblast |
dyno chart on the JD please  planning on running MPST/PF (Modified Partial Streamliner Tractor/Pushrod Fuel)? | ||
| Firemanjim |
No,John Deere is running in the RM/WB-G class(Riding mower with blades--gas class,)I honestly don't know if its pushrod. Henrik,no such thing as too many toys and your always welcome to come on out for some sun. Jim,have tentative deal working with Derbi--maybe get a new 50cc as it is a much better platform with way more parts available.(They want to see Aprilia records fall) | ||

true tale of the truly sick: when I was a teen, many moons ago, my friend Joe took his Dad's Snapper riding mower, removed the blades and reversed the drive pulleys. He got a running start (and he needed a big one) from the top of the hill where he lived, and all I care to remember of the incident is a reported top speed of 40+ miles an hour on 6 inch plastic wheels with tiller steering, and Joe going flying into the bushes when he tried to turn the corner at the bottom of the hill. His dad came home, after the Snapper was put back to it's original configuration, and tried to cut the grass, and the tires were lumpier than a shopping carts, because they had partially disintegrated during the "speed run" any wonder why I love the LSR thing? Man, one of these years I have to at least build a bar stool. | ||

Not quite Bonneville Barstool legal (if I understand the rules correctly): Koz5150's...  | ||

true tale of the truly sick: Several years ago, my Father figured out he could do wheelies on his riding mower. Good. One day, shortly after all of us had arrived, he decided to do so headed UP the driveway. Very bad, in retrospect, decision as he failed to factor the incline of the driveway into his control inputs and turtled the mower. Fortunately, he'd disengagd the blades of the mower that, now, was atop him. Ooooooops. Court | ||

Right before the incident, was he heard to say "watch this!"?  | ||

Jim...I think you need another S-2, Red with White frame for your son...Then the both of you can ride similar bikes together...In fact, I have a Red S-2 that would be perfect for you....thanks, REX (then you can keep the Bonneville bike together like it is.) rex |
