Another Pan Project
This is my friend Peter's shop, he's making killer hardtail frames for Sportsters and other kick ass projects. Here's a few shots of a once trashed out frame that he's bringing back to life.
Someone had the bright idea to make this sweet Panhead frame into a softail!! Too bad I didn't take any "before" shots. Stay tuned...
Tech tip
The little buggers where pitiful at best, believe it or not the clutch actually worked somehow.
these is what the cork in my old discs looked like after so many years of faithful service...
Last weekend I decide to rebuild the clutch discs on my 51 Ariel 350 single.
Replacement discs are very hard to find and cost good money.
The original ones are made of cork, so why not use the wine corks I've been saving for so long?
The cost of this endeavor? ZERO!!!
Now that's more like it.
Cut the cork in little pieces all the same size, if possible and all a little larger (I'd say 30% larger than the hole on the discs.
Boil them up for about 5 minutes, make a nice cork tea out of them (also known to be good if you can't stay out of the shitter)
The cork becomes nice and soft and don't hold any heat, so you can convince them quite easily into the discs.
Then all you have to do is grind them down to size , oil them up and voila! brand new discs for $ZERO!!

Depois de um photoshop bem creisson, dá pra ver uma boa possibilidade aqui ou eu tô ficando louco?
Correct me if I'm wrong...
Cool custom on the cheap
Yamaha SR 500 x Suzuki Intruder 125 & 250
Agums já devem estar familiarizados com a cultuada Yamaha SR 500 mono, não disponível no Brasil.
Analizando bem essa moto, reparei como é parecida com a nossa Intruder 125 e 250
Com um pouco de criatividade e pouca $, acho que dá pra fazer uma paradinha bem louca...
Pra quem quer viajar um pouco mais, se liga no site: http://sr500forum.proboards.com/
Ou de um search no google por custom SR 500
