Now that the weather has changed and the bike shop has slowed down out come the boss's projects. A 64 honda CA77 dream 305 barn find and 2 old Yami 2strokes that I cant even ID.

[Dragonknee]

Thats cool, Its the right time for it...thats for sure

Got the mighty 500 up on the new stand and began the rear disc brake project, the swingarm pivot is being obstinate but I am not easily beat. I will turn down a bronze punch tommorrow and I will win the battle. It sure was fun to share some of my world with you guys on Sunday!

The bike shop has slowed down a little so it's time to roll out the winter (the bosses bikes) projects. We gotta keep Miller busy or gets confused and forgets were he is. 1st up is a '64 CA77: Honda Dream 305. She's a barn find but not too bad. Terry K of Retro Bikes should be a big help on this one as far as those hard to find items. Its a black bike and will look spiffy with white walls. And we have 2 little old Yami 2smokers in the wharehouse that I still have to ID and the fleet of CT 90's. Iam going to talk the boss into a "cafe" bike like a XS 650 or a Z1 or a CB 650 or a GS 550 or H1 or a GT 380 or something other than litlle slow boring bikes!! Or a street tracker TT500 or XR500!!

I think he needs to get an old Penton.
It could live on the floor with its younger brothers.

I should get to work on the first bike I ever rode.
1968 Benelli Dynamo Trail Mini. 4-speed, clutch, great fun!
Still own it!


I've been watching for a Benlli sei- still wish I never sold it to Glen Long all those years ago.
Of course, I may be sleeping in the garage if I get another bike without selling something.
(Already sold the OSSA for the Aprilia smoker).

Also thinking of watching for a Banshee engine. Some guys bump them up to 450cc and install them in the Aprilia Chassis.
I guess I should learn how to ride it with. A 250 first though.

Hey Jay, That Suzuki is looking good, I'd like for my son to hear it, I bet it would be a motivator to get him on task with the 350-4 project. Doug

Why don't you guys come over some weekend or evening. Tomorrow is good! It's not running yet, needs wiring harness put back together but I have a buddy assisting me with that.

[Da Nag]

You guys are having waaaay too much fun. Here's what I'm working on.



Getting ready for the 42x60 barn/workshop. Had to have 300+ yards of dirt moved. And no...I didn't do all that with the Kubota.

Once done, the two wheeled projects can proceed full speed ahead. And...we'll have another local BBQ and party location.
