As seen on Cycle Exchange's website here: http://cyclexchange.net/Engine%20Parts%20Valve%20Trane.htm CYLINDER STUDS Kibblewhite Precision Machining was the major supplier for such high-performance distributors as RC Engineering and many others. Many years later, materials and...

Was going to use these for my 76K cafe build but I had a wreck on my 76F last month. My wrist is jacked so no riding for me for a while. Had a double compound fracture of left forarm it was nasty. Anyways, needed to make some room so I sold the 76K. I wouldn't get to it for a year or more anyway...

Its stripped down awaiting powdercoat. Still have much welding and grinding to do on the frame before sending them off. They wont fit in my oven! Lol

Got the tires in and put them on with a $5 tire tool. Apparently the powdercoat IS really tough! Put the wheels on teh bike to test fit everything and found some issues to resolve. Rolled the bike outside to take some pictures, side shot. Front view Rear wheel close up left Bike overall...

I couldnt squeeze another bike in my harem if I wanted to! Have 6 out there right now!

Sweet!! I really like the drag bike and the candy red one!

The frame will be gold, as well as all engine brakets, swingarm, etc.

Many changes this weekend…..I got my bearings from Ebay in two days! They arrived Saturday morning so I pressed them in the hub and went to spoking the rim. It is easier the second time around. One thing I learned that I didn’t read anywhere on spokeing, once the first spokes are attached to the...

Thanks Ken! Looks like they would POP on your bike!! Got my rear wheel spoked. Waiting on new bearings for the front to arrive to press into the hub on my press before building the wheel. The whole assembly wont fit on the press! I thought I had plenty of bearings from the guy I bought the...

YeahI I got my wheels back already! Dropped off Friday, picked up Wednesday! They look SWEET!!! if I do say so myself....

Yes I've seen it done and I have a roll of radiant barrier that could be used to make one. I just dont have the room for something like that witj 6 bikes in the garage right now.

No. It needs to be heated evenly. I am taking my frame to the powder coater I use for larger items. It's about $130 for anything. The set up charge is $75. It's best to get as much stuff powdercoated at the same time because the price doesnt go up much for more items once you pay for set up and...

Yes! Eastwood. They had the complete set up on Ebay. Lots of selection.

Yea me too!! hoping to have the wheels back Friday but who knows.... they had to order the paint I am using. My oven? Its just a 30" house oven. I had a 27" double but I kept trying to do bigger and bigger things. Recently bought a tool cart to put it on for ease of access, and it holds my gun...

Then I opened up my shocks and decided that the chrome springs and white spacers weren't going to work for my on this bike. I love chrome but not for this one..... I Set them up on the press and they come apart pretty easily. Heres the new shocks from Cycle-X one disassembled Springs Hung...

Sunday I broke out teh Gold powder and started with my third color. I strung my nipples and painted them gold! Whoohoo! haha Nipple jewelry... Rotor bolts and bearing cap in gold Side shot And Rotor plate in gold. I think the nipples are going to pop against the red rims....

I dropped my rims off at the powder coater on Friday since they wouldn't fit in my oven. Then I commenced to getting everything ready for their return. I made a spoke holder and did the spokes in a triple mirror black. Then I painted the polished rear hub. With the sprocket in place And...

The tank is sold on Ebay and i cannot remember where i got the seat from. Stumbled on it on a webpage and liked the fluid lines and the foam forming to the seat. Had to have it.

I drilled them, beadblasted, then cleaned them. Then I taped them and cut the tape off around the holes, then powdercoated them and baked them. Happy with my results that I may have to go redo the yellow ones on my 76 SS to paint inside those holes! Gonz

Weather is cooling off and getting in some garage time. Got my wheels broke down and started on the front hub. Sanding the ribs down on it first. Then bead blasted Then polished Then powder coated candy red Have the rear insert done Here are all the parts I have completed in two days...

Don't mean a thing, if it don't jing-a-ling!!

I bought it off of a guy on Ebay that is making them for the 550's etc. Gave him the dimensions and he thought he could get it close.....it was spot on! About $54 or somthing close shipped. Have a buddy with a bender but doesn't have the jigs for this 1" bend radius. I was looking in to...

For some reason, this image reminds me of something from Star Wars!!

Chopped the frame last night and started bead blasting the 76 swing arm thats going on her. Drilled the hoop and frame for some plug welds.

My 76 I have had since 04. Bought it off of Ebay for $1025 in Milwaukee. Flew up and rode her home to Dallas in 20 hours! Been in love ever since!! Actually it is the same as the first one I had back in 85. I moved to Dallas on it with my dog in 86 and retired her in 88 to the junk yard. Kickin...

No I am powder coating stock wire wheels, just trying to pick up a 75-76 SS wheel from a buddy up in Denton. Then I'll be coating the rims in candy red. Tank I got off of Ebay, about $440, actually my wife bought it for my b-day as I had been eye-balling it for a while! lol Can't remember where...

I have my tank in now and set it on the frame with the seat to get a feel for where everything will wind up. Hav ethe rear hoop to install next and scrubbing the foam off my pan to see if I can get this seat to flip open with the key. I like that feature!

I am excited about my next build!! Started with tearing down the wheels for paint but first drilled the rotors and bead blasted them last night. Hope to be powder coating this weekend (have a patio to finish first). Candy red centers and the rims will be candy red as well. Gonz

Daddy needs some CB parts!! Let's go baby!!
