We had one of those at the shop where I worked. I'd like to have one but when I started looking the prices made the idea seem less attractive...

I see what you did there!

Forgive me quoting myself but it gives a little background so it seemed not all that inappropriate... So yeah, I have an old Rockhopper Comp. I thought it was too small. I made lame attempts to find another one in a larger size. gave up. And then stumbled onto one! I'm pretty sure I posted...

Allen Millyard (Who I think built that Viper powered bike) has built a lot of auto engined motorcycles, and some really cool engines for them by making inline 4s into V8s and I'm pretty sure a CBX into a V12? I envy his skills... I'm thinking a V8 motorycle engine in a car could be pretty dang...

Please excuse the following rant. I promise I don't feel as strongly about it as the post might indicate. It's not meant to be a flame towards anyone who's posted. Trigger alert - as a long time motorcycle fan there are a few triggers in this thread that have awakened my grumpy old man mode...

After years of thinking abotu building up a Typhoon frame, I saw one sitting on the side fo the road while on my way to dinner one night. It was still there when I went by again so I took it as a sign and decided to finally do it. Here's what I started with I bought a fork and chainguard for...

Not for nothing but you can buy these things for about $3 in metric and stupid, er, imperial sizes. Doesn't help sizing nuts I suppose but for bolts and axles and things...

Are you going to remove any more of the paint before you weld? Cuz if you leave it like that you're going to remove a lot of it WHEN you weld...

I like your frame stand! I also prefer the lighter color if you're asking. ;-)

I've gone back and edited my reply to this thread - turns out I have no idea what I'm talking about. Of course I was 2:30 am and I was just about to drift off to sleep when for some reason this popped into my head, so now I'm wide awake again... I tell ya if it's not one thing it's another.

EDIT #2 - And as I was just about to fall asleep tonight it occurred to me that the following would be true only if the bike had a fixed gear. If the wheel is allowed to coast there is no fixed relationship between the wheel position and crank position. So... Never mind. If you have a 1:2...

I like your bike's bike trailer. ;-)

Chrome doesn't rust - the steel under it does. There is no chrome under the rust. If there are pits they are in the base metal. Prep, prime, level, and paint IMHO.

Is this the same rim as in the other post that shows it so bent? That rim is trash even if you fix the holes.

If you want to reinforce the stem, screw the locknut back on the top.

I'd like to be in, but I haven't got a great idea of what to do. Well, that's not true. I have a good idea but I'm not at all prepared with parts. Plus, it'd be another bike for me... What I need to do is put something together for my wife. She has a bike now but doesn't like it, it steers to...

I'm pretty sure I saw where the Camaro is taking a break but won't be gone for good? Edit: https://www.motortrend.com/news/chevrolet-camaro-discontinued-ev-sedan-rumor/ Looks like it's coming back as an electric vehicle...

Same type if not same brand of clear as the base. Do a test shot before comitting as the clear can wrinkle/lift the base coat and/or dissolve the decals.

(some) Guitar guys like the way a nitro finsh starts to crack and check as the years go on. It's a feature for them...

I used a sealed bearing bottom bracket in an adapter on my Typhoon. Worked great, I'll be buying more of the sealed bottom brackets in the future I'm sure.
