    powder coating

    Wel I electrocuted myself 13 times, gave the dog lung cancer, probably increased my electric bill by 26% and figured out at least half of the wrong ways to powder coat. But at least i don't have to pay for it anymore.

    Does anybody have any experience with cerakote on exhaust systems? I am doing the motor and was thinking about the exhaust. Its a set of stainless hindle head pipes if it makes any difference.

    New motor build

    I am mulling over engine options for a new motor. I am thinking about a venture1300 build is there a better set of cases/ liners or are they all the same? 1-1.5 mm bore is all i need a 1327-1344 motor would work. Will the venture tolerate a 1.5 bore?

    swapped front end

    I swapped my front end today from a complete 85' assembly to an 03' fork with an 85' wheel. After setting it down I realized it was lower even without all of its parts. If anybody has time I could use a measurement from these two points. From the bottom edge of the lower tripple to the...

    mirror i.d.

    can anybody i.d. these mirrors? the tall/long one is on both of the 85's so i believe they are correct. the short mirror is on the 03' parts bike and i only have 1 and I would like 2.
