Hello, Greg, Yep, the one plunger has been chromed too, so it's likely they had to hone, but did so poorly. Chrome throws about 1/2 D IIRC, so combined with a ...
Great pics, is that owned by albany PD ? I have never seen it around . Looked up your bike , also nice. I was thinking my brother had the only loops around ....
Toms got an assortment of unmolested splitters- nearly 110% zero failure rate on the splitter - i cant believe a po chroming a hidden piece -chrome in those...
Hi Ross, I like some chrome, but I've never been a huge fan of chroming everything in sight. Please don't take this as any dig toward any particular brand of...
I guess I should still give Tom a call and see what I can find, at his largess. I do have pieces nickeled that were originally zinced because of the high...
Hi, Greg, Didn't call Tom yet, took time to cool off instead because I am lousy company when frustrated and hot. I prefer polished aluminum over chrome, though...
Hi, Ross & All. Marv here. I realize that the term "the alternator" refers to the belt driven alternator, as in the Nolan/Fields conversion (or something...
Hi Ross, Two broken cables would not impress me, either. It was the single upper cable that runs from the throttle to the splitter that broke, yes? Both times...
Hi, Greg, Yes, the long cable but it has been the nib at the other end, the splitter end. I can't find anything written that details the liner nor can I see...
I'm trying to locate the knob portion of the push/pull switch on my 1973 Eldo LAPD. Any body have one or know where to get one without buying the whole darn...
Ross. I still don't have the original style cables. Probably another week. But I went out to the warehouse and pulled a good cable and complete splitter...
Curtis, You really didn't have to go this far, but I really appreciate it that you did. I will install this weekend and follow up with a call to you on Monday ...
Hey, even though it's been a problem. I'm just happy it's not my fault. I screw up enough without any help. I called Barnett and was immediately met with "they...
Hey, ya'll. While on the subject of fork tubes, I had Franks make a set for my disc brake Eldo and they went together fine but the thing rides like a truck....
If you spell Wolfsburg with an 'e' instead of 'u' you get a site that sells VW parts and Russian and Asian brides. I'm the only one who can do things like...
Well, if my wife leaves me that could be handy. Russian women with a touch of Asian are certainly, uh, exotic. Nice eyes and cheekbones. K. Ross Raymond ...
"I then got some sort of "we don't use solder any more, they are swedged on and they never fail". Of course I felt like swedging the kid I was talking too." ...
i have done something like 2 dozen this way. always install the nut on the end of the crankshaft first. this way you can't buggar the threads. lay a short...
I believe Moe at Cycle Garden sells high-end Teflon-lined throttle cables. I think they're expensive (over $50 each), but perhaps they would interest you. ...
I think it was a Griso on Numbers tonight. I haven't heard one yet, but the sound seemed to be from a four cylinder. Hope someone else saw it to confirm. Tom...
in Sears tonight trading in a dull phillips and walked thru the toys on the way and theyve got a toy craftsman tool kit with an american Vtwin and when you...
her's my method. works fabulously.. neanderthal: place case on wood blocks (rear carrier side down), get a friend to catch crank..(important) place block of...
Mike, that's good info and if I try the Superpractic B in the future I may do that. Here is where I am at: 1) The splitter Curtis graciously sent me made no...
Call me old fashioned but I rarely buy cable, I usually make them, as I used to do with my bicycles in my racing days ... I buy all the materials (inners ...
