That's my plan but I haven't been able to get exact measurements for the hole location. I took some measurements from a '48 stem but now I can't find them so now I'm back to square one. It seemed...

No worries....I completely understand. I'm sure it will go to a good home.

I have a '47 offset springer but I need a '48 with the neck lock hole. Interested in trading rear legs?

Robbie - Would the speedo be a deduction? I was under the impression that if a 'best available' repop item was used and it looked close enough to the original it would be acceptable? The unit in the...

Are you masking and then sealing the bung with epoxy?

Yes, it would be a points deduction if the paint saver system was installed during judging. It wasn't an original HD factory option available...

Steve - I recently titled my '48 pan in PA and when the title came in from the State it had a "z" on the end of the VIN. I transferred the title from NJ and for some reason they added a "z" to the...

Here's what I use for my 45's....a combination of Chris' idea and the jack that sirhrmechanic is using. The rails go under the floorboard support rods. I made it and then realized that the cam chest...

I had a similar issue with my jack and a '47 WL. I took some square tube steel and a couple of pieces of angle iron and viola....1/2 hour later and I had a couple of rails I could use. They...

Rich - One of these days I plan on taking a trip out to Harrisburg to see if I can charm somebody into issuing me some plates. It's only about an hour a way but I never remember to do it when I have...

To my knowledge everyone pays. Make sure you bring your membership card for the discount too. No card, no discount. This is the only meet with a fee (fees are listed on the website:...

Gerry - I picked up a '48 pan and attempted to get an 'Antique' plate here in PA....I'm not aware of a 'historic' plate. Since PA uses tag shops and messenger services you really don't get an...

Chris - just realized that picture looked kind of real. Is that the fabeled '35 protoype?

that's awesome. I'd add that to my collection along with my '47 Panhead and 1980 Delorean.:D

I think I've got a clutch setup laying around. I'll check it out tonight and get you some pictures.

I picked up a set of inline bars complete with switches and wiring from VTwin (Tedd's) and I had the same issue with the switch so I'm interested in hearing the remedy. I haven't put them on the...

Thanks everyone for your input. I found the same issue when I was putting together my estimate for her. I looked at Craigslist, Ebay and this forum among a couple of others and I thought I had a...

Hi all,

I'm trying to help someone sell her 1970 CL 350 but my experience is mostly with American iron. I've sold a bunch of Yamaha's but most of them fall in the '80 - '83 timeframe and I want...

Pretty sure it's the one in the first picture. Those are the only types that I've seen in the top end sets for my 45" models and I think they are the same for all flatheads.

Thanks Cotten!!! That's more information than I was expecting but just what I was hoping for. I'll be working on a Yamaha carb problem this weekend (a perpetual project) and this will come in...

Hi All- I've got a set of '48 heads and I'll be converting them back to plumbers in the near future so I appreciate all of the above information. One question though....I've seen these leak tests...

Will - Rob is right...it's a small town and pretty easy to find the meet. Once you get close you'll see the AMCA signs at it's only a couple of blocks (I think there are only 2 in the whole town)...

I've heard of people using brake fluid, transmission fluid and gasoline as options to soften hard rubber. Apparently you just soak it in any of those fluids for a while and the rubber swells and...

Any chance that a couple of C clamps or maybe welding clamps could help to keep the walls compressed to allow it to fall in the rim?

Ok, how about another fork question....

Does anybody have any idea why someone would braze the laminated plates above the fender tabs on this '40-'46 fork? It also has another reinforcement on...

MikeDT,

It looks like you've got a '47 and later leg. The spring fork perch was changed on '47 models which are discernable by the lack of the two inside grease fitting bosses used from '40-'46....
