I spent a lot of money back in the day riding Bultaco's. I was paying $54 for a Mahle pistons while Rm and Yz pistons were $8! I burned through 250 Pursang connecting rods like they were designed for self destruction! (broken transmissions, busted fiberglass, mangled pipes etc) I worked in a...

Neat bike!

They also have a 1300cc Suzuki Bandit powered machine. They are real eye openers for experiencing acceleration. When ridding a power wheelie you feel like your on a ladder. I need double shoulder surgeries so I stay off the dirt bikes.. otherwise I would still be doing hard enduro and...

That is indeed a Husky. I still service and rebuild dirt bike engines and suspension part time, so there is usually a pretty good variety of machines setting about. I am doing the service work for our local national hillclimb team: "SOB Racing" (Southern Oregon Boys) Here is an example pic of...

Hey all- I have been exploring the idea of building my own E-mountain bike for rough conditions. I have mountain bike rode thousands of miles, but most of my experience is on motorized dirt bikes and older mountain bikes, back when I was really into it. (early 90s) So most of my newer tech...

We also have a fairly busy highway with shoulders 199 / Redwood Hwy. I have rode on it for quite a few years when I have no other alternative, but its not pleasant or low stress for sure. No way that I would take my wife on it. I am going to pick up a tiny enclosed trailer just for the Ebikes...

Good input. How about the small led's in the wheels for side viability? I have never used the pedal/ankle or the wheel lamps.

Thank you. I will do future posts on builds and ideas!

I remember the Zzipper.. I made a few of my own for winter riding from plastic sheet around that time period. As a former off road rider we would use both a bike mounted headlamp and a helmet mounted. It worked well to see the dips and depressions that a lower mounted headlamp can obscure...

I have tried out helmet mirrors on my duel sport motorcycles and have unfortunately not found one that is strong enough. (still looking) The primary reason that I want one for this application (that will also apply to the Ebike) is that I spend a lot of time in a standing position and cannot...

Thank you, great input on the subject.

Some cool bike faring shots. Thanks!

I use higher quality safety glasses as mentioned above. I just found these insulated versions that should give the protection from airflow of a goggle but set close enough to the eye to prevent tunnel vision. I am going to order the tinted version for BC skiing when they are available...

Adapt or build a version of the old school motorcycle helmet screen? The bubble design or the simple, flat lexan sheet, that can be flexed in an arc across the face area of the helmet. Bubble design example...

Thanks. It is still under construction and organization. I am adding a rear storage area of 24x60 off of the back of the shop with a 4' wide man door between the shop so we can keep the equipment and projects out of the shop floor area. It has already filled up and become too cluttered for...

Thank you, Being semi retired now, I look forward to some experimental projects and putting in a few miles on them.

Thank you.

Thanks!
