Lol. I drove 250 miles with a socket stuck on a bolt inside my frame rail on an idler arm.

It's amazing how hard a little masking tape can make it to get a socket off of a bolt.

Apparently no Locktite, lock nuts or lock washers were available

You talking about the "Buick" bike?
He got it on the road, but it was pretty top heavy.
Also, the bike in that video is much nicer

The only motorcycle museum you will ever have to visit. They have it all.

The AMA runs a nice museum, so I hear. There's a good one on property at the Barber Motorsports Park in Alabama, too.

I think Bean'er might have a couple of screws loose but the video gives you some more of the NMM in Anamosa, Iowa. I spent about an hour just looking at the Road Dog bike. Its hard to imagine that that guy put something like 30,000 miles on that thing. When it came to a stop 4 hydraulic legs came down to balance it.

The creator of that thing met a violent end.

Just installed my first set of MDC-supplied Borla headers on a Workhorse P1 with a 6.0 . It ran so nice!

I haven't heard that story. Tell me about it.

 

[1BROWNWRENCH]

I'd have to research it up. I heard he died to a police confrontation. I remember it from a MC magazine article.

I miss the days when you could actually see where the key was suppose to go. My wife's Ford Escape is terrible. Apparently the engineer who designed it was blind and didn't feel the need to put it where it could be seen.

Needs a W.C. Fields keyhole finder. (a funnel)

This is a car we saw parked in Newport this morning. It's a '62 front and a 2005 rear.
