big trouble.

Today we went to Eindhoven, to the canalparty. The whole family in the sidecar. While we where riding the highway the shovel stopt. i didn't have the right tools with me so i, tryed to figur out what the problem was, and i thougt it was the carberator. but i got back on the road. after 5 minutes he stopt again, and i phoned the "wegenwacht" Nice guy, helpt me cleaning the carb. It was all filty. You have to know i cleaned it up all saterday,and fixed the fuellines, becaus the gas always dripped. so this week i got to do it all over again. Well the kids had a great day. But what makes me mad, why didn't stop any of the bikers that drove by? fuck them, i would have stopt. And it wasend just one, more than 20 passed by. Sure they waved. fuck i'm realy pissed, where is the true biker spirit?? tell me....

aarle rixtle show

Went yesterday to "aarle-rixtle" to liberator, they always have a show at the begining of the season. But always the same shit, softtails with ape's or beach bar's. great if you like that type of bikes, but not my kind of bike's there where some sidecar's but this was the best. The best of show was this old school sporty, bold on hardtail, pretty primaire case. and check out the spoolhub.With brake. pretty cool..


took a picture of this sporty, don't like the style, but i love the pipe's.

nice for mine...

tvs

since a few days i've becom part of this forum. it's great. i reele love the english style of bikebuilding. thanks for the inspiration.. http://www.thevelocityshack.com/forum/index.php

sportster

With the idee in my head to rebuild the sportster, i start looking for some nice pics for insperation. i asked marlies what she found of these bikes. and i think that this is the style it's going to be. a narrow sportster low on the back, stock frame old style wheels reposition the gastank, small rear fender lower the front, hand made exaust, keeping the midcontrols. hell yeah great idee. let the surge begin. now we've got to find the time.

tsunami

i came along this pic a few times. And i couldn't resist staring at it. you can almost feel the pain, so i thought i should put it on my blog for respect of the japanese biker. I pray for you that you get it running again. and ride the hell out of it. respect. big thumbs up, even for the man who puts it on the net..

shovels

i think 2 of the coolest chops i found on the net. don't know where i found those pics, i can't remember. But i think there awesome.

gs 550

It's finnaly ready, so, what do you think?
the paint isn't exactly what it should be, but we will have to deal with it.
got some racing numbers on it, 717 , it's our lucky number.
I even took it for a little ride, don't tell Marlies, cause i haven't
got insurence on it.

I notticed that i've got to do some finetunning on the carb's cause it doesn't ride smootly.
will see, i think it's becaus of the open airfilters. I don't think ill be riding it for more then 50 km, i think it will break my back. But it's great to drive it around the house. It sounds great.
Im really happy with it. so, up to the next one....

Second step, I've put on the stripes and decals, stripes in silver and de decals in green metallic.This is the style i want for it. Now i've got to wait . ther's something more to come. and then, the final paint. Last things to do, a stud for the excaust and a little mirror. maybe il find one next week. And then it's done. Damn, i've got to find a new project, or wait maybe i'll first finish my new sidecar.

Yesterday the postman brought me my new footpegs.

But they look fucking cool on my bike. black, always better than chrome or aluminium.

Got my first paint on it, so fucking green, it hurts on your eye's. But who gifs a fuck, i think it look's great. Wait till you see me finisch it, it will get better by the day. keep looking.
O, ofcourse all by ratllecan.
It's so shining that it glims on the foto.
The neigbours came looking over the hedge, they wanted to know what that bad smell was.
O my god, it looks like the hulk...

sportster.

My wife's sportster.
She's beginning to like te caferacer, she said that if it's ready she wants to ride it.
so i've got a great idee.
You ride the caferacer and in the meantime i turn your sportster into this one.
I Think it's the best looking sportster i've ever seen.
i am thinking of using flh wheels ,wide glid fork, 6 degrees,
and a 2 inch longer rearfork, and lower the bike.
other gastank other excaust ,
great idee. will see, will see...
