Stolen Magnum

Ugh, I guess it was bound to happen. Marks Magnum was stolen outside of one of our frequented pubs. Really lame since mark had just got it running perfect and we both had a lot of sweat equity in it. Pretty easy to pick out in AZ since there are only like five magnums here and I have probably owned or had my finger in all of them. Currently its tan, one red on silver snowflake, black simo, polini, bing, 2.75" gazells. If you are the guy who stole it and read my blog, watch out. Sigh....

Im the worst blogger ever.

Seriously, its hard to get around to this sometimes. Im working more since the holidays are coming but still finding time for the ped stuff. Its starting to get cold but we are actually riding more as a gang, even have a whopping three new prospects rising in the tom cruiser ranks. Its nice to get new blood and new bikes flowing. Other than that im developing some new shite for the community, working on a requested adapter for dio blocks to hobbits so you wont have to mod the case, but hell, how do you guys stuff it in the subframe?!? Snowflake disks will be here soon as well as a new batch of 5 star disks. If you have other ideas im open to them as it seems the tomos intakes are on the horizon too. Here are some pics of the last ride, yay!

Just been doing stuff.

Well, whats been going on this week? New guy johl came by and worked on his sweet hobbit. Apparently he did not realize the arrow on the piston points down and toasted the original. Its running a DR kit, proma pipe, blue springs but he still has to dial it in. Marks almost done with his magnum and is putting the final touches on it while I type. Its Running a e50 with a metra 65, a reworked simo (by me of course) and a bing. So far a good runner. Me, well I happened upon a good deal for a polini powered maxi that was totally built to 90's spec and a UPS magnum, and yay, Ive owned all the magnums except that one...it is in pieces though. Hey you, know anyone who wants 3 busted za50's? I got them cheap just for you!

Intakes! Thats why I havent been updating.

Sigh... a sigh of relief since Ive been slaving on this order for a friend. Lots of intakes. Look forward for some big ol 24's for your gila or malossi reed polini kit. What, you have a treats read kit and need an intake for a four petal setup? No prob. I even have some 19 intakes for you dudes rollin dirty on your athena sachs (Not for the novice though). Word. More disk, clutch rings etc. Whats new with you?

Easy Halogen Headlight

Yeah so Cody wanted to upgrade his headlight on the Pinto since it has the treats CDI. It was pretty simple to do actually, 10 minutes tops. We took the OG bulb holder out, trimmed off the back portion, filed a groove in the halogen bulb assembly itself so the retaining clip would work, wired it in, started it up and BRIGHT light action. He used a 9006 bulb, 85813 harness and a few electrical connectors. Take a look at the pics, it should make sense. Terry made an appearance and shot the shit as well. Yay.

Sachs Uber Clutch

Ahh, it been a while since Ive been on here. IM starting work on a friends Sachs, he had a kid and has become too lazy to tinker. We had already installed an 80cc athen kit onto the bike as well as simo snail exhaust and a 21mm carb. We actually milled 2mm off the base of the cylinder since we found a HUGE squish clearance. Since this was an A engine we opted to do so since the D engine have a 2mm longer stroke (or rod?). Its a ripper, as in rips the clutch appart. Justin did manage to score one of these Uber clutches from germany any I have high hopes. One thing I doo like about it is that the big washer thingy had been milled down in the center to give more room for a lock washer. I will let you know how it works out.

blockhead...

Nothing really new, Baretta runs good, gonna try points to see if my CDI is faltering. STILL waiting on my parts from the water jet guy, and its hot. I like blockhead.
