Progress? ? ?

Well I will attempt to get a little activity going here. Myself I have done little as of late, seems no time and when I get the time .............well I'd just rather do something else then work on the bikes. BUT I have finished up the hand shifter on the chop, have to fab up a chain gaurd (gotta have them here) and also thinking about different bars due to our silly laws around here. Can pretty much stick a fork in this one.

The little 48 should see some progress soon as well. Few small things to pick up for it and it will keep me busy the balance of the winter.

Anyone else gaining any ground????

SURGERY WAS A SUCCESS! both sludgetraps came out relatively easy
1/2 chisel an an agle till bothe edges cut into the wall of the tube then a full shanked scredriver driven down between the tube and wall of the crank 1 full turn then the long needlenose pliers and an ajustable wrench and Robert is your Mom's Brother
I will never put a truimph on the road again without doing this operation
You can tell in the pics just how bad it was 1 tube was pluged right at the end Tight as Hell!!
Today it's clean and clean some more!
and we are headed into a bit of a hard freeze in the next couple days with highs of 5 lows in -15 range I don't know how the hell ya'll up in the Great White North do it for such long piriods of time
