You’re a bloody magician. Freightliner Tutor in Melbourne builds custom one off guitars. There are some well known artists that exclusively use his products. Builds 2 or 3 a year time dependant

Dads just bought one, but a trike. 03 Electraglide with Champion conversion. Is a ten footer. He’s a convert after years of jap this jap that. Bros got some big cube cammed dyna wideglide, number 3 Harley for him. I’m not interested in going fast and for that the Vulcan is fine. Good stepping stone I suppose. Another that’s piqued my interest is a Rocket3 but suspect my gammy knees wouldn’t be able to keep it upright. Struggle enough with the Kawasaki

Like like like. Choking to buy a Harley myself. My Vulcan is ok but the whole “fake Harley” stigma that goes with it gets to you after a while. I don’t even care if it’s an EVO. But money is also an important requirement…..

Nice work my man!

Went down the shed week or so ago and thought “Shit, the bike looks like it’s fallen over!” Clear all the shit stored in front of it and yep, almost 300kgs of Vulcan is almost on its side. When I parked it up the ground was dry (dirt floor dugout) and with this wet weather the dirt floors gone soft, and side stand had sunk into the ground. I managed to get it back up on two wheels and put some thick ply under the side stand. Today I got it off the dirt. Back wheel had sunk 100mm into the ground. I pulled the tank and guards off AGAIN in preparation for paint job number 3.

And as of yesterday this project (and my 850) are on the market. Financially and time wise we cannot afford to do anything on it. It’ll be on marketplace once out of the storage unit. Sadface.jpg- 123 replies

I’ve scored a conventional spray gun that’s been sitting for years. It’s been left unwashed for quite a while. Anyway I managed to get the pot off the bottom, it tore the seal unsurprisingly. I managed to get the needle out and strip it down to the best of my abilities. I’m assuming it is enamel as person I got it off would only work with enamel. Anyone know what I can soak this turd in to get rid of the build up? Also is the saying “you can put enamel over lacquer but not lacquer over enamel” correct? I want to use a high build primer underneath that I think will be lacquer I don’t trust paint shops after the Vulcan paint debacle….

Thread dredge. I’m in the process of emptying our storage unit. We missed the property boom so our intentions of selling up have been shelved. Soooo drag all my shit home over next few weeks….- 123 replies

Too friggen right. I was saying to old boy I’m gonna rattle can it satin black. He told me to take the remains of the gloss black he got as part of his sponsorship for his dirt cars. After almost 49 years of speedway he has finally walked away, and he won’t be needing it. And to make all the more cringey I’m thinking a set of these in red or white

About to turn around and strip the tins a 3rd time. It’s going to get a satin black paint job from left over tins from work.

Did you do anything regarding upgrade to the valve springs? I had one with a cam and a little head work in it in my first stockcar and they were the built in rev limiter at around 7500rpm. You probably know this but pay attention to the oil pump drive. They’re a great little motor apart from those two things
