gas spark explosion! working with my hands mentally relaxes me I have played with bikes (pedal and motor) and messed with cars. Luckily I have the best wife who understands my "Mechanical Issues". Now I am restoring a Burley Samba for us to ride as I go thru it

sad day in the man cave
I put the 200cc bridgestone cafe project on the lift to change the coils
she fire up great and then Wham dead stop
Pulled the motor to find a clip disolved into the pistone and the cylinder
On a lighter note I have a 175cc set up with a little flakeing at the bottom of the cylinder
is this okay?
yea I know crappy photos

george wagman's black Duck
wareham tom
Harley Davidson and Buzz's Duc cafe racer
fall moto giro #5.1
looks of a great weekend
I made it day 1 from Mt Snow to Salem NY before I had electrical issues
A lousy condensor put me out of the game
It happened after stopping for gas I could not get it to fire thought it might be my kill switch but found out 3 miles down the road it was the loss of a clean spark
On sunday I did make it to the top of Okemo MT
went back down to get my camera for the photos and on the second trip the same gremlin showed it's face - loss of spark

well at least they used a shot of my bike in the press photo
