Thanks Franey !
Its nice to read that you are doing OK and working on your bike. There were some new Indian riders at the BUB meet and they were having a good time. The tribe was well represented. Hope to see you next year.
Likewise ! Thanks!
Glad to know the tribe was well represented.
hey lars-sad to hear you never made the meeting-but kind of glad you were able to erase some problems in the workshop instead of having trouble on the salt-
your thread is still a source of major inspiration-keep at 'em.
for my birthday this year we went to the international indian rally in scotland,we took a couple of harleys and i had my 47 chief-
as always ,on the international rallies,we met some great folk,and especially the fins,who had ridden their aged iron over 2700 miles!!-you vikings are crazy!-
we met some great people and had some great times at bonneville too-
best wishes for the new year-p.j.
Thanks ! ..and best wishes to you !
Lars can you give the list an update on the bike. Have you had it running yet?
Best Regards

Sadly; no...sort of...and yes....not really
I had it all ready, fuel, ignition (what more do one need?!)....it did say PHOURRFFF and then the oil poured out
of those f&%¤g silly oil-line joints , so I've just re-worked every part of them.
Before that, because of the new blower being slightly different, I had to rework/modify
both parts of the intake "plenum", the blower-body, the blower mount, the blower to carb manifold
and the belt cover.
Getting ready to get it fired in a short while ( goodness; I've said that before...several times..urgh)
Lars,
So great to hear your words on a screen instead of thru a haze in the sweat lodge.
I moved the streamliner to Minnesota so the contigent up there can work in a secret CNC machine shop to make the liner tech ready, while I keep the engine and redo the cam profile to prepare for trials this summer up there.
My thoughts have been answered.

Thanks, my man.
Good to know the liner is making progress.
Proper update to follow soon........promise!
