luckily for you Dos Equis has healing properties! Get well soon buddy boy!

she was a cool chick, easy on the eyes and could really ride that beast! Hopefully she is at peace and looking down on Hooneville...the first half liter riding guardian angel.

R I P it up Tina!

**UPDATE** Paul Stoffers has stepped up and purchased the designs for the engine covers (clutch & ignition), and every part I have designed for Gen 1 and Gen 3. Additionally, I have taken possession of all the remaining inventory that my machinist had on hand. He will no longer be making any par...

OK gang...sorry this has dragged ass like a clapped out thumper...but, my machinist is getting divorced....I am tired of getting PM's for low ball pricing....blah, blah, blah. So, if your interested in buying the CAD files for a STEAL, PM me or e-mail me directly at shanimal@live.com . I have no tim...

All, My machinist has moved and is up and running in the new facility. While doing so, he found a drawer full of parts (to be identified shortly) that I suspect will likely be front engine mounts (with the taper for a perfect fit on gen's 1 thru 3 and will work for gen 4), gen 1 head stays, coil rel...

If you really want to run a two sided head stay on a gen. one bike I suggest getting two thinner ones made from steel rather than trying to run the thicker aluminum plates. I ran an FEA model on the headstay I designed and I got it as thin as it can be and still have a safety factor if 2/1. The stee...

excellent progress brother! Keep chuggin' along and you will be roostin' soon! BTW: for gen. one bikes...beyond the conversion: the best money you will soend is to get your suspension DIALED professionally. It forgives some of the rigidity that some complain from on the gen. one bikes. It's essentia...

Not out of my comfort zone, just a big jump from Shans kit. I honestly spent less then $300 for the conversion part of my build and $200 was for the welding. My point for the "high" comment was... Am I paying for just cost of the parts or the work that went into developing and producing t...

I dont recommend trying to bend (form) tubing in the T6 condition...it has a lots of tempering in it and it needs to be seriously overbroken (bent past the desired angle or radius) to get your net shape. Also, in doing so, you will likely cause a ton of micro-cracks while forming. It's best to form ...

and while the Gnarly makes amazing low end, it will ABSOLUTELY crack at the factory gusset in the upper left hand bend............every time. Just a heads up.

Thanks for sharing those Al...those are great...I especially love the two-up shot on the PW50....my son wanted to ride that bike soooo bad. LOL!

the swing arm spacers serve no purpose but to "take up space" and eliminate any side to side movement of the swingarm. The spacer material choice between stainless and aluminum is, well......immaterial.

Nice build brother...very clean!

It was a blast to hang with you all again! That picture Bobby posted with the fellas is funny, because Tracy (Armpump) looks like a midget and he goes 6', 200 lbs. Hoons are for the most part some big mo-fo's!

Hope eveybody had a good time....Moab for the win in '11 BTW!!!

The deal with the dogs sucks ass...we came back and Danny was right...you all had hit the road. Come back out any time boys....would love to give you a tour and a meal and a place to crash for the night!

Soooooo.....anybody out there have a good time?

actiontrae aximusmae!!!! Be there or be riddled with guilt the rest of your friggin' life!!!!! Bwahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!

Shit Ok, is the shelf ride an A loop? AA :twisted: More A than double AA....plus with the traction the short take-off hill climbs will be easier too. The Ledge and the SHIT trails are definitely closer to AA stuff........although any B rider can do them....it just takes longer. The good news is tha...

...yup, supposed to get a couple of days of rain between now and then. With a little bit of luck, that will happen and we will be blessed with what we lovingly refer to as "velcro dirt"! Be sure to have a fresh knobby and grips....holding on to the bike can be a fun challenge when there is...

good luck, keep us posted!

yup, spot on!

uhmmmmm.........ME too!

Love that!

Honda uses two...... nuff' said. Uhem....BULLSHIT! Honda makes concessions for cost just like every other mass producer. If you want to see what stuff looks like when there is no price point check anything Bimota builds. I will say that a single thin, hand bent headstay is NOT the correct approach,...
