SUNDAY POST SUMMER–DON’T READ THIS–RIDE GODDAMNIT!

deacon thru wheel 500

Summer fun. This summer has been a blast, but I’m missing my long ride for the season. I’m still working on plans for Durango on Labor Day. We’ll see. The women are trying to tie me down, projects around the headquarters, sex in the morning to keep me weak. They both work, one much more than the other.

We’ve been fortunate to have a couple of weekends catch us in the middle of the week, unsuspected trips and parties. Workin’ on bikes and playing harmonicas at midnight in the middle of the week. Can’t beat it.

Let’s hit the news:

CAN YOU EVER BE TOO COOL?

During the hot summer months, riders seek to insure that their bikes don’t overheat. If you own an American bike, and its not a V-Rod, you’ve got an air-cooled motor. Most of our metric bike friends, and the V-Rod riders, have water-cooled engines. As basic as this sounds, either water and air, or oil and air cools your bike’s engine. Why? I’ll tell ya. Because you are being propelled down the road by an internal combustion engine. Combustion (the explosion) of your fuel (gasoline) moves the pistons in your motor, which generates heat. On top of that, the movement, in close proximity, of the internal components of your motor (rods, pistons, gears and the like) create friction, which generates additional heat. If you don’t control the heat associated with these mechanical functions, all this metal stuff in your motor will melt together like candle wax and you’ll end up on the side of the road. Not good.

Yeah, yeah, get to the goddamn point, John. Watch for this tech to be posted in the “Free” area sometime today.

Billy’s Dog Died One day, Billy’s dog Buddy died. He went to his father and said, “Dad, why are Buddy’s legs like that in the air?”

His dad replied, “It is so the angels can take him to heaven easier.”

Well, one day after work, Billy runs to his Dad and says, “Daddy, something happened!”

The Dad thinking there had been an accident says, “What is the matter?”

Billy replies, “Mommy was laying on the floor with her legs in the air like Buddy yelling ‘Jesus, I’m cuming for u” and if it weren’t for the neighbor holding her down on the floor, she would have left us!'”

Only In Texas

On a hot blistering summer day, a redneck cowboy come riding into town on his horse with his dog following. He tied the horse and dog under the shade of a tree and went into the bar for a cold beer.

About 20 minutes later a policeman comes into the bar and asks who owned the dog tied under the tree. The redneck cowboy said that it was his.

The policeman said, “Your dog seems to be in heat.”

The redneck cowboy replies, “No way dog’s in heat, he’s cool cause I got ‘im tied under the shade of the tree.”

The policeman says, “No! you don’t understand; your dog needs to be bred.”

No way”, the redneck cowboys says, “dog don’t need bread, he’s not hungry, cause I fed him beef jerky this mornin'”.

Now policeman gets mad and yells out; “NO! You don’t seem to understand, your dog wants to have sex!”

The redneck cowboy looks at him and says, “Go ahead. I always wanted a police dog!”

beach ride flyer

Beach Ride Project Bike By Bikernet, Update Well, my photography sucks but the bike looks really good at night, under the lights. The Stadium Club in Fullerton usually gets a pretty good crowd of bikers on Friday nights, but they didn’t show up last night. However, I did pass out two bid sheets and about 20 Beach Ride flyers. I cruised the town with the bike on the trailer and put out about 10 more flyers.

Sunday Sex Humor A young girl and her boyfriend are driving down the road one day. Her boyfriend suggests that they play road games and that whoever loses has to strip. They play every game known to man and the girl loses every time. Soon she is bare naked. The boy takes a long look and runs off the road. They slide into a tree and the boy is trapped in the car.

He yells to his girlfriend, ”Quick, go get help!”

She says, ”I can’t, I’m naked.” He hands her a shoe to cover with. Desperately she covers her ”lower parts” and runs to the road.

She flags down a truck driver and yells, ”Help me, my boyfriend is stuck.”

The truck driver looks down at the shoe and replies, ”Honey, if he’s that far in, I think he may be gone for good”

48cyl - carl

48 cylinder motorcycle engine. This Is Guaranteed Not Photoshopped.

It is a 48 cylinder, 4200cc engine made from s1/kh250 cylinders, by Simon Whitlock. “Each motor is basically 8 “s1 /KH250” cylinders bolted on to cut up standard casings, with a 8 cyl built up crank, in turn they are bolted to a housing, gear linked and driven thru a BMW road bike gearbox, as the bike is pretty long already it would be difficult to put a transverse drive thru a gearbox. It has taken almost three years of hard work and he has overcome some huge problems to get here – – where do you even start to think about building a bike like this?

Oh, by the way, Simon is not an engineer of any kind. He oversees the building of shopping precincts.

Don’t look at it as a bike, look at it as a pure feat of engineering . . . and Simon built a Nitrous injected, fuel injected, water cooled, supercharged H1 about 5 years ago! . . . . How will he top this one? He can’t – WHO CAN? I think as you say, his next project may be reverting back to a small engine and gaining the maximum horsepower from it ”

“The bike has a small 75cc “Donkey” engine undr the seat to start it.” The ignition is by 6 x 8cyl E-Type Jaguar distributers. Oh, and not only does it run – but it is rideable – JUST! – the engine and box alone weight just over a ton!

Deal Of The Week

It’s me, old Bill May from Vegas. The site is really looking good. I seem to have collected a whole garage full of iron head Sportster stuff. I was wondering if it would be worth while to show up at the Long Beach thing with a couple of bikes on a trailer behind my bitchin’ new 70 Monte Carlo. I also have a rigid ’67 Triumph basket case. Good Horse projects.

Thanks, Bill

chase & shovel on lift 500

That’s the bulk of the news– Anything else isn’t worth repeating, at least this early in the morning. I need to feel the sun, run my hand up her soft sensual leg and pray for a night alone.

Life is wacky, full of ups and downs. We can only hope and pray that we can handle all that life slops on our plate, and keep smiling.

Oh, watch for the tech on the 1928 Shovel. Nothin’ like a party workin’ on bikes. Let’s get the hell out of here.

Ride Forever,
–Bandit
