Lunch Trip

Here's a lunch trip from a few weeks ago.. Andrew's been packin' the skateboard lately!

Aso Chopper

Took a little break & went down to a camp event called "Aso Chopper". It's pretty mild as far as biker meetings go, but it was a good time.

The old '77 Police Special went to a good home yesterday... thankfully to a good owner who wants to ride it in it's current condition.

I had several interested buyers who wanted to chop it, but glad I held out since the old girl's fine just the way she is.

One of the last OEM hand shifters BTW!

Stuck a valve...

Well.. got a little rambuncious and stuck an exhaust valve! As long as I had to overhaul I thought I may as well throw an OE type pipe set & muffler. I got a bit tired of all the noise, and she sounds really nice now - new top end & all.

Gold Frame Refresh

Haven't blogged for a while - it's been crazy here.....

Here's the gold frame chop from a few years ago, back for a bit of motor work & clean up.

Little Helper

He's everywhere at the same time.. probably be taking over next year...

Matsu!

Here are some examples of excellent leather craft done by my friend Matsu.

He relocated back to the Ito Shima area (close to OSI) recently after almost 20 years in So Cal.

Nice old school design!
