  1. Too cool! Happy Birthday!  :thumbsup:

     

    ( . . . the other CGP was John Knowles?)

    Yes.

     

    Also, Tommy is an ambassador for a great program aimed at getting guitars in the hands of returning vets to help them in all aspects of their lives back home.

     

    There are over 2000 instructors nationwide that volunteer their time to this program and they buy guitars and strings in bulk to minimize costs so, if you have a spare dollar or two it's a great cause.

    The one real issue with the 160 size is that when you are out on the road and blow a tire hardly anyone has one in stock. Just about everyone has a 180.

    I carry a tire plug kit and a pump.  Don't go any long trip with worn tires....

     

    I actually do that but after running over a nail and losing it at speed I unknowingly damaged the sidewall. After plugging and getting back on the road the tire developed a bulge on one side. I called everyone in the area with no luck. After limping 40 miles to my destination (TWO of Suches) the closest tire was 60 miles away. If it weren't for the kindness of strangers I'd have been screwed.

  3. I am making a custom airbox for a project that I am working on. I just need the parts in the pic. v11 sport specific.

     

    I am going with larger throttle bodies on a CalVin engine and don't really want to go the Pod route.

    Yes youre right. I now have one on these in the 5 3/4 versions for two bikes and this one for my Guzzi which is 8inch across for a 7inch Headlight. 

    The problem is that some of the LED headlights fit in to the shells of the current headlights, but the look so nice open its a shame to hide them in the shell, let alone heat or wanting a change in colour of the shell. 

    Of course the main reason is that these look (IMHO) much nicer and solid than the chrome shells.

     

    I can see why you had to make that yourself as there is nothing out there worth a damn to make a 7 inch headlight fit in an 8 inch hole. Been looking for years.

     

    Nicely done.

     

     

     

    If you ever go to market with those, put me down for 2.

  5. Have seen may good brews in this thread and enjoyed many, Several months ago I became an investor in a crowd funded venture on a sophisticated home brew appliance called a PicoBrew.

    It uses pre-made pacs from various vendor recipies and will eventually include product from large and small breweries that you normally can't get unless you're local. I finally found a way to get beer delivered.

     

    Ran the first couple of batches this past weekend and am stoked at how easy it is. Should be ready by the next so we'll see. I'll report back.

     

    A good marketing vid
