Magnificent 7

Great Job. I may try this for my old Triumph which seems to be needing two feet to stop the darn thing.

" I can totally relate to this! 1965 Norton 750 ....1/4 mile lead time PLUS the 2 feet!!

Every time I look at one of your posts Darin I have to see bling bling !! What up!!

Keep us posted how it turns out?

Been like that ever since I was a kid. I enjoy doing it.......

DFA, You are slipping! You didn't notice the colored cables?

Friend of Mine's 78 that I did engine for.

Had to use two pipes to make one then blued it.

Other than a leaky Karkoma (That I had to rebuild) She fired 3rd kick.

Other than getting Oval Number plates mounted and set of chain and sprockets, this puppy is a done deal.

Moto X Fox Husky frame is going to Powder coaters!

Really Nice!!

Thanx Steve!

What paint did you use on the rims?Mine are in need of a paint job or getting Anadizing.

We never touched the rims since paint was fairly decent on them. Just elbow grease.

I usually do all mine the anodized route in antique gold.

Send rims to anodizer so he can strip rims and send back.

Then sand and polish them.

Send back to anodizer and they come out like new.

On the tube side, I just bead blast area, then use soft wire wheel on a stand. You never see it anyways.

Bill,

Another option might be?

Use a coating on rims from KG Coatings (Gunkote).

There are two colors Dull Brass or Pale Gold that might match up. I have Bright Brass in my inventory and would think it is too bright. Its the gold im spraying over the black on my cases.

You might have to run a silver base under them? They could answer that.

Basically, you just bead blast rims. Clean with acetone, Spray with Gunkote and bake @ 325 degrees for an hour. Stuff is bullet proof! It's all I use from now. Fuel proof, chip proof, etc....... Looks expensive but it goes a long way. I use an air brush from Harbor Freight to spray it on. I have a set of rims that are polished that I am going to add Gold and Black to. Rims are going on 125 some day.

Like to get this puppy fired by Monday!

Going back together since I did final welding to modify the frame for Fox Shox and sent it to powder coater.

Darn thing should rip since I ported it, made the snail pipe and still have yet to my carb mods.

More Bling for you DFA!

Dang!! That is BLING BLING!!

[quote="dartyppyt,


Nice job on that snail pipe, looks like an old "Baker" Pipe.

Got her fired last night, so just need to button some things up like, raising the front forks up some in triples, getting the rear shocks aired to my weight, packing the silencer, filling the forks, and machining few things.

Anyone have some good jetting specs on the 82 CR 250?

Thanx John and Justice Bikes!

John, Sounds awesome but I had Gary send me jetting info. Lil Blubbery on bottom and previous guy had wrong Idle screw in carb. Plus I have to pack the silencer.

I had two ziploc bags with 250 carb parts in them. One for 83 and one for 82. I cannot find one of the bags. So might of ended in trash can by accident. I do have the carb body, cap, float bowl, etc.... I have needles, slides, jets on there way, so that should clean things up with help of Gary's sheet he sent.

No snow yet! Just that darn friggin wind! Gary was filling me in on some of your projects and racing accomplishments. WAY TO GO! Maybe towards spring I can give you some extra horses help?

Thats why i wanted to build few snail pipes, cause it is a lost art. You are correct...... Can Ams, CZ's, Elsinores, YZ's etc...... Takes me about 25hours total to build one, with bike in front of me.

Good Deal! Glad you are doing good race wise. Yeah, Gary is excited that you guys are doing the 390. Prob one of my favorites. Funny how just few pipe changes or silencers can make more performance. I don't know what is up next? Got 4 more to go. It's either the 82.5 500 or my 83 CR 250??????
