R&D Dodge Posted November 5, 2017 Author Report Posted November 5, 2017 As luck would have it, your tooling arrived the same day the guides did Brent! If I could just find the time to install, but for now I must pretend to be a plumber.. Quote

R&D Dodge Posted October 21, 2019 Author Report Posted October 21, 2019 Except for the death wobble.. Quote
T120 Posted October 21, 2019 Report Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) - Speed wobble. I had that experience once many years ago pushing the limits and it focuses a person's attention quickly to pay attention to proper maintenance, and as Dirty Harry would say, " A man's gotta know......" lol Edited October 21, 2019 by T120 Quote
R&D Dodge Posted October 21, 2019 Author Report Posted October 21, 2019 It sure does. Recently got it running since purchasing and took it for a drive, couldn't take my eyes off the road. Fortunately I found tie rod ends and kit for drag link. Fingers crossed on King pins.. 1 Quote

The record was around 130MPH. First run I hit 116. Next run was the last for me as the transmission case cracked and no spare was available. But it was a fun week. I met Burt Munro in person and touched the worlds fastest Indian. Don,Too bad that you had the mechanical problem and missed out on the new BSA Rocket 3, but anyhow you had the opportunity to participate and also to meet Burt Munro...good memories to have! ?
