I have two major ankle surgeries. One on June 27th and one on July 12th.
After July 12 I will not be able to put any pressure on my left foot for six
weeks. We are looking at a small VW buggy and if we get something like that
we will be there!
:shock:

Goler Heights Ride

I had a blast! Weather was great, temperature couldn't have been better. Thursday the wind was just right to move the dust out of the way, the next two days there wasn't enough wind so the riders had to spread out. Today there was just the right amount of wind again. Very little but, enough. Did som...

Ok, I talked to Lewis and decided to put the "Drilled" cast piston in the bike. This will be the test, I have another new piston but, that won't matter because if this one comes apart I will have to bore the cylinder anyways. I will run it hard and see if it stays together. In the end we w...

It's not mine ....well, not yet, He is only a teen and short on money. With the bottom and top end he is looking at around $1K and thought he might pickup a running engine cheaper.

I stirred it up again over on the other post I started about the Pro X honing. I didn't drill a ton of holes, just four down the exhaust side for the bridge and the big one on the intake side. It is forty over 90mm. I have new one also. Can your engine guy fix this bike for this kid? Or TREEMTRUBBLE...

Well, now I have the new piston and the "other" new piston that has been drilled with holes. Mr. Lewis still says I can have the holes drilled and it will be fine. The question is, has someone drilled holes in the Pro X pistons and they came apart? From what i understand Mr. Lewis has and ...

If this piston has any chance of breaking I will throw it away and buy another. I was going by what Mr. Lewis told me, he had the same piston and I thought he said to drill the holes :roll:

At this point I only have holes for the bridge and the big hole on the intake side.

Honing for ProX piston rings

I am about to hone for my ProX piston. What grit do you guys hone with for these rings? 180 grit or 240 grit? I have a 105mm 240 grit for molly rings and was about to buy a 95mm ball hone for this cylinder. It is a 90mm piston. The bike had a weisco in it with no holes drilled and the bridge wasn't ...

Mostly riders that ride long and easy. I think the plan is to go to Trona Pinnacles, Burro Schmidt, Jawbone to watch some hill climbing. At the cabins so those that don't have a trailer can stay out of the wind.
