Re: Benelli 250 SuperSport (egg)

I was thinking you might make a classic racer with your second Supersport. 9th Elan does sound like fun though. Is this going to be a restoration project?

Re: Print your own timing wheels

I used this program when degreeing the cams in the Triumph twin engine drag bike. Without a spec sheet for the cams which were stamped 'nitro' I was able to produce a degree wheel from the program.

Re: Vincent for sale

Looks like a nice bike. John Ulver rebuilt several Vincents and also had a Bonneville Salt Flats bike that run in the 150 mph range. His wife also rode a Vincent.

Re: OSSA Super Pioneer

You're not running out of room are you?? I keep saying I'm going to sell a bike or two but after detailing them and updating them I change my mind.

Re: A pack of TY175's!

Re: Shadow Build

With everything else going on, I did finally get some work done on the upper frame member. After 70 years of sludge buildup in the oil tank and no real good way of cleaning it out I decided to install a cleanout.

Re: A pack of TY175's!

We were discussing this very topic today on a vintage bike forum. Many vintage bikes had magnetos that were marginal at best. Of course some of their weakness was due to capacitors.
