Chuckles all round there- the colour scheme was accidental and experimental, I couldn't decide if I want red or blue (obviously), saw these colour rattle cans in Repco (auto supply chain), and had to give it a whirl, cut a long story short too much same colour in one place...and yup it looks like it landed on a police car- but no one died....
By coincidence, Mr A.D. Guthrie was coming to town, and I often sing that particular song of his(in my mind- along with the other voices) and it occurred to me that, just maybe I'd subconsciously been building my interpretation of what a "Motorcycle Song Sickle' should look like- for the last 35 years. I did manage to round him up briefly and ask, showed him a pic, and he showed me a pic of his (late model) Indian- but that's another story....
Muskie, I'll try and do some pics of the inlet tract tomorrow, I noticed tonight when I went out(yes- AFTER dark set in), that after a few k's, the inlet tract was quite cold...so have to analyse that one, I think it may be normal..???
The clutch is doing slippy/draggy stuff, and the Carb settings need juggling, but in spite of that, dead set- it's FUN
Thanks for Liking or at least appreciating...
Cheers
Oh yeah Muskie- I know you not fond of trumpets, but I have to get them out of my system..!!
