SCORCHING SO CAL SUNDAY POST FOR AUGUST 19, 2012

Hey,

What a weekend. Last week I picked up the Bonne Belle paint on Tuesday, then the engine on Wednesday. I was on the verge of panic as my daunting list of projects unfolded. Fortunately for me a team emerged just in the nick of time, including Nicole Brosing from Australia, Tobey, our official certified welder, Dr. Willie, Gordon and Kyle, and of course Richard Kranzler, the Bikernet licensed, heavy load truck driver/engineer. Hell, even Dr. Hamster showed up and helped out today.

If it wasn’t for the non-stop action, intelligence, and resources from this team, I wouldn’t be on the verge of having a fully operational race bike. Incredible!

I need to jump right into the Sunday Post, still more work ahead. Supposedly the SOA team has been shooting scenes in front of the Bikernet Headquarters in the middle of the night. The sneaky bastards. Let’s hit the news.

REASONS TO JOIN THE MRF–The signs went up without fanfare, one day they just appeared. No Motorcycles Allowed from 10PM till 5am they announced to the citizens of America’s third largest city. One of the world’s most famous roads became off limits to motorcyclists during the late evening. Worse was the very real prospect of the ban spreading. It didn’t take long for the fear to become a reality as the No Motorcycle signs began to pop-up on several other city streets. The reaction among windy city riders was predictable – they were outraged.

ABATE of Illinois, the American Motorcyclist Association and the Motorcycle Riders Foundation swung into action. And after a long and protracted fight the signs were removed. The details of getting them removed would require a rather lengthy volume. For the purpose of the report it will suffice to say that language inserted into the interstate funding act of 1998 – called TEA 21- that would prohibit motorcycles from being denied access to federally funded roads (Lake Shore Drive is part of US 41) gave ABATE of Illinois a powerful tool to have the ban lifted.

The Motorcycle Riders Foundation’s constant presence in Washington was major factor in seeing that language remained in TEA 21. On September 3, 2007 – as is their annual custom on Labor Day weekend – a large group of riders assemble in the morning on Chicago’s trendy Weed Street. Under the Leadership of the Chicago Chapter of ABATE of Illinois they proceed to the Drive and “run it” from the North end to the South end and back again. This “in your face” gesture is a victory lap of sorts. Just to let the city know that we are still around and we haven’t forgotten the attempt to restrict us from roads that we pay taxes on to maintain.

Many activists in the motorcyclists’ rights movement have said all along that the ultimate goal of our enemies is not helmet laws or noise ordnances, but banning motorcycles off the roads entirely. Here was a classic case (there have been a number of others) of that prediction becoming a reality. One percenters, Gold Wing riders, HOG members – it didn’t matter – they were greeted with the same message when they hit the drive. It was that motorcycles are prohibited. 

What can the MRF do for us? This is a question that we hear on a regular basis. The political future and what type of legislation it may bring can be difficult to predict. If past performances are any indication however; the most apparent thing that the MRF can do for motorcyclists is to keep them on the road. 

Fall is a great time to ride. Perhaps it may be a good time to find a favorite road and give some thought while riding as to how the cancerous growth of motorcycle bans has been arrested, but could reappear at anytime. Consider that ride to be your own victory lap and remember the MRF’s legislative team continues to be the motorcyclists’ watchdog in Washington DC. We are working everyday to see that your access to public roads remains intact.

Enjoy the ride. Michael Kerr MRF Vice President Rob R. (Rob) Assenzio Newsletter Editor Abate of Florida SouthWest Chapter

BIKERNET TRIKES READER COMMENT–HOKA HEY MOTORCYCLE CHALLENGE 2012 : I stopped and talked to some of the riders. Very nice group of people. A couple of them in their 3rd Hoka Hey. Good stories.

Next year Irving to ? and back.

THE LEADER OF THE PACK– Arnold Schwarzenegger is out in front as he rides with motorbike gang
By Mike Larkin
He has always revelled in his role as a self-styled alpha male.
And times have clearly not changed for Arnold Schwarzenegger, as the action man led the way on a ride with members of the famous Black Hawks Motorcycle Club in Los Angeles today.
He clearly enjoyed riding the powerful chopper, and gave a friendly smile to fans as he waited at a red light.
And no wonder the 65-year-old was grinning, as the weather was perfect for riding as he zipped around the posh Santa Monica area on his 2009 Indian Chief motorcycle, an updated version of the classic 1940 model.
The actor looked very much like his iconic Terminator character on his outing, and had dressed in a black leather jacket, trousers and brown riding boots.

 

The safety-conscious star also went for a retro cool look by donning an old fashioned open-faced helmet
And the Austrian Oak, who shot to fame as the world’s greatest bodybuilder, is clearly feeling the effects of his renewed efforts in the gym.
For the former governor of California looked in exceptionally good shape for a pensioner as he went racing in the streets.
Perhaps he is in such good spirits as he is enjoying his return to prominence as an action star rather than being an unpopular politician.
He received a rapturous reception from fans at the recent premiere of The Expendables 2, and will return to the big screen again soon in modern-day western The Last Stand.
The trailer for the film shows the star playing a small town sheriff who has to step up to the plate when a notorious drugs kingpin escapes from the FBI and turns up in his district.

 
 

WISHING YOU BEST OF LUCK AT BONNEVILLE– I still have my 883R 2003 Sportster, it’s a 1200 for a long time (think I had it done at about 10K miles) now and runs good with 58,000 miles…Still want to get a new or used Dyna soon…Either a Low Rider or new Fat Bob with the 103-inch motor…

Well anyway your site has helped me thru a lot of times…Started reading Bikernet when I was recovering from a back injury and it helped me keep going on with a more or less positive attitude…Started reading Easyriders with issue #2…that was a while ago.

Good Luck on the salt.

Here’s a bit of my blog; Buckshot’s Belligerent Biker Blog of Facebook:
Howdy, Madtown Mobbers! I thought I’d tell you a little about our trip to Sturgis.
As most of ya know, after being invited for several years, Reggie and I headed for Sturgis with Arlen Ness and the West Coast Hamsters. Every year the route is different, and this year the ride took us through Yosemite to Mammoth Mountain for our first night on the road. Keith “Bandit” Ball, of Bikernet, met us there, but had to leave in the morning to meet his deadlines at his infamous Bikernet.com and the other magazines he writes for.

I haven’t seen him in several years, but keep in contact almost daily through e-mail. We had a great visit, a few drinks, and caught up on chit-chat about the industry, our projects, and good whiskey. He’s looking for records at Bonneville this year, and time is tight for getting the effort together.

From Mammoth, we headed into Sun Valley, Idaho for a two day stop. There was a party at the home of a local Hamster, and a 100-mile lunch ride to a beautiful lake in the Sawtooth Mountains. I noticed an interesting bike called The Stewart Special, and after talking to Paul, the owner. I found out that it was painted to match his father’s race car. His father is F-1 and Indy legend Jackie Stewart. Due to other obligations, he left the ride not long after, but it was a pleasure to meet him. Some of you may wonder what the icons of the industry are like away from the “Biker Build-off” cameras and the autograph table. Like everyone else, I had some preconceived notions, but none were accurate, and I was very pleasantly surprised.

Over the nearly three weeks we rode with, hung out with, and talked to Arlen, Donnie Smith, Dave Perewitz, Rick Fairless, Paul Yaffe, and other legendary builders, we were treated like part of the Hamster family, and felt right at home on their company. Not many organizations can claim to be an extended family, but that’s what the Hamsters are, and every ride is a family reunion.

The fourth day found us on the road to Missoula, Montana, traveling through some of the most beautiful country anywhere. At every stop, the bikes were cleaned, and then it was time for drinks, dinner, and comradery. We ran into some rain, but not enough to cause a problem. We discovered a problem with the valve train in Reggie’s engine, and for a while it looked like she wouldn’t get to ride into Sturgis, but again, friends came to the rescue, and that’s a story for another day.

Buckshot-

THE BIKERNET BLOND ARCHIVES NOW OPEN–I urgently needed a few days off work, but, I knew the Boss would not allow me to take leave.
I thought that maybe if I acted ‘Crazy’ then he would tell me to take a few days off. So I hung upside-down on the ceiling and made funny noises.

My co-worker (who’s blonde) asked me what the heck was I doing. I told her that I was pretending to be a light bulb so that the Boss might think I was ‘Crazy’ and give me a few days off.

A few minutes later the Boss came into the office and asked, ‘What in the name of the good GOD are you doing?’ I told him I was a light bulb. He said, ‘You are clearly stressed out.’ Go home and recuperate for a couple of days. I jumped down and walked out of the office…

When my co-worker (the blonde) followed me, the Boss asked her, ‘…And where do you think you’re going?

She said…’I’m going home, too. I can’t work in the dark.’

KYRLON JOHN REPORTS IN–
I’m back, I put over 4,000 miles on the coupe. From Anastasia Island, Florida, straight up through Georgia to Chattanooga, Tennessee was the first leg of the trip. For a tech article to appear in Street Rodder, at Coker Tire in Chattanooga, the bias-ply Coker Firestones were swapped for Coker Excelsior radials. Corky spent a good part of the day showing me his collection of motorcycles, and cars, and everything in between.

Everyone seems to have a favorite brand, and as evidenced by Coker radials bearing the name Excelsior, Corky has a real fondness for all things Excelsior. That’s Corky pointing out in his office a tank half from an old Excelsior that was just about as mint original as mint could be.

Behind the straight 8 Buick powered Coker Special is a rarer than rare Excelsior SOHC engine intended for automotive use, but never made it past the prototype stages. I saw another engine almost just like it at Speedy Bill’s museum in Lincoln, Nebraska. I believe theres’ only 4, or 5 known to exist… Maybe Paul Wheeler has one out in his backyard, I’ll ask Gary Chopit to look the next time he’s there.


Here’s Corky, and Butch swapping the tires out on the Chadly Coupe.

Here’s the Chadly Coupe out in front of Honest Charley’s Speed Shop right before I left for Lincoln, Nebraska to visit my friends at Speedway Motors.

Corky was insistent his guys put the coupe up in the air at Honest Charley’s and give it a through safety check, and change the oil before I left… It’s great to have a friend like Corky.

I’m kind of burned out on writing, but if anyone would like to read more about the trip, I’ve got some blogs up at StreetRodderWeb.com

 

BUCKSHOT ON FREEDOM–Here’s an answer to your 3-paragraph challenge in the Thursday News:

In America today, we only have the illusion of freedom. If that sounds harsh, just look around you. We’re forced to wear helmets and seat belts, forced to pay taxes that are used to subsidize causes and programs that we don’t agree with or condone, and forced into narrow parameters as to what we can and can’t say, negating our first amendment rights to pacify the politically correct factions of society. Sure, we can say “fuck” in public, but just try making a racial or religious slur and see how quickly it becomes “hate speech”, and prosecutable.

Our second amendment rights are under constant attack, compounded with each shooting by a deranged “loner”. The politicians and talking heads on the news capitalize on each new tragedy in an attempt to vilify guns and gun owners. When will we realize that gun control isn’t about guns, it’s about control? Our constitution is already being circumvented by “Executive Order”, and without firearms, we would have no way of regaining the rights being slowly and steadily usurped from us. That, not hunting, is the reason our Founding Fathers wisely included the 2nd amendment into our Constitution.

If you don’t believe how rapidly our freedom is disappearing, just look at New York, where 64 ounce sodas have been outlawed. Did you see that one coming?

One city in the Bay Area is in the process of initiating a ban on smoking anywhere within the city limits, even in the supposed sanctity of your own home! Our property is no longer ours to do what we want with due to restrictive ordinances against most anything that could possibly annoy anyone else, and where it can be taken by Imminent Domain at any time, for any reason. New businesses face outrageous fees and restrictions, especially in California, where each government bureaucracy has infinite power without the limitation of common sense.

Our government is like a runaway train, carrying us down a one way slope into servitude, and if we don’t realize that, and act quickly, what little true freedom we still possess will be irretrievably lost, and our forefathers who fought and died to leave us that legacy will have died in vain.

OFFICIAL BIKERNET SUPREME COPY EDITOR’S NEW RIDE–I decided to pull the trigger. Traded the RK in on a black FLD Switchback. 103 cubic inches, torquey and mighty nimble. Got a fair price – it’s a barely used 2012 with 780 miles on the odo – but a so-so trade on my somewhat long-in-the-tooth 2007 FLHR (61K miles). But I just didn’t have confidence in the mechanical reliability of of the King anymore, especially after the problem I had a couple years ago when virtually everything in the primary went tits-up. It’s been intermittently acting up again and I’ve had this feeling that it’s fixing to take another dive.

Seems the original buyer of the FLD decided he needed a trike to lug his and his OL’s asses around instead.

Just got back from an early morning ride around the Manassas Battlefield. Nice handling bike. The stock muffler is a little too quiet, but the suspension seems pretty sweet as is. The rear shocks are adjustable, so I need to grab a spanner and play with the preload a bit until I find my personal sweet spot. I’m thumbing through the factory service manual right now over a cup of coffee.

Except for engine oil, service intervals are a lot longer, so routine home maintenance won’t be as labor-intensive. The dealer did the 1K service, so I don’t have to mess with it for awhile. One thing that kind of annoys me is that the steering head bearing is fully sealed (no more zerk fitting). Lubing it requires complete disassembly, but it’s a 30K maintenance task.

Nice cooler weather today. May have to head west and take a cruise on Skyline Drive in the Shenandoah Mountains this weekend.

HOUSE COMMITTEE FILES SUIT AGAINST HOLDER– This week, the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform filed a civil lawsuit seeking to circumvent President Obama’s executive privilege claim and force the Department of Justice to hand over subpoenaed documents. The filing is a follow-up to a June 28 resolution holding Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr. in contempt of Congress for failing to turn over subpoenaed documents about his department’s response to the disastrous “Fast and Furious” operation by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

The resolution passed by a bipartisan vote of 255 to 67. Obama administration officials and the Department of Justice had openly defied the committee’s legitimate requests for documents regarding one of the most deadly and disastrous fiascos in the history of American law enforcement, one which claimed the lives of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry and I.C.E. agent Jaime Zapata. And in a historically unprecedented maneuver, President Obama claimed executive privilege to justify withholding Justice Department deliberations from a congressional subpoena.

A TRIBUTE TO UNDER Boobs–The underboob is hands down, one of the finest aspects of a woman’s body and can be enjoyed in a public venue and it’s achieved by wearing a very short underboob shirt which exposes the bottom areas of a girl’s boobs.

Some of you might think that the under boob is even better than cleavage or even tastier than a side boob, but if you ask me, they’re almost equally attractive. So if you’re a fan of underboobs or just boobs in general, you will surely love this collection of epic underboobs that have been put together for your viewing pleasure.

SHEVOLTM Design Considerations–We always wanted that old shovel style rocker box look with a modern twist for the current crop of bikes. Most of the designs available though well engineered and of high quality, looked like….. well, boxes. So we made our own.

Part of the design criteria was that the new rocker box achieve our aesthetic goals but also sacrifice nothing in engine performance or reliability. To that end, the SHEVOLTM rocker box has several advantages.

Additional cooling finn surface area and air flow were added to help cool the heads and oil that end up in the rocker box. A very simple but highly effective scavenging check valve ensures optimum pressure evacuation and uses the stock external breather hardware. Special consideration was given to ensure that the sealing areas do not leak over time and all aluminum components are hard anodized for longevity.

The SHEVOLTM is made from forged billet 6061 T651 aluminum. This is much stronger than regular billet pieces ensuring reliable use for performance engines.

Material:
Forged Billet 6061 T651

Included in package:
•All mounting hardware
•Viton O-Rings

SCOTT JACOBS HEADS OUT ON THE CANNONBALL–Scott has enlisted the services of one of the top publicists for the William Morris Agency to promote and document his ride in the upcoming Cannonball. They will be scheduling television, radio and print interviews with Scott along the route as well as possible major network appearances.

(San Diego, CA…) — When widely-celebrated artist Scott Jacobs signed on as the first officially-licensed artist through Harley-Davidson’s “Fine Art Program” worldwide in 1993, he had no idea 19 years later he would be running the Motorcycle Cannonball 2012 Endurance Race on his fully-restored 1926 Harley-Davidson J. He will join over 70 other riders of pre-1930 motorcycles from 22 states and 10 foreign countries in a race that begins in Newburgh, NY on Friday, September 7, 2012 and finishes in San Francisco 17 days later.

“To be a part of this ‘rolling museum’ of classic motorcycles on a trek that started almost a century ago is really amazing,” said Jacobs. “This is a test of the endurance of both machine and human body.”

Scott’s wife, Sharon will ride her Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight Sportster and carry a GoPro camera to document the ride, and their two daughters, Olivia and Alexa will join the ride on their motorcycles; Harley-Davidson Crossbones and Fatboy at Stage 7 in Sturgis, SD. Copies of his acclaimed coffee table book “The Art of Scott Jacobs – The Complete Works” will be available at each stop of the race, and proceeds will be donated to charity.

The Motorcycle Cannonball 2012 is a motorcycle endurance run with competition based on precision riding and navigational skills on classic motorcycles. The pre-determined 3950-mile route, which kicks off at the Motorcyclepedia Museum, takes riders through a dozen scenic national parks and forests. Highlights include riding along the coast of Lake Erie, through the plains, the Badlands and the Rockies and finishing on 100 miles of the Pacific Coast Highway across the Golden Gate Bridge and into San Francisco.

The 16 stages range from 93 to 326 miles, and less than 100 miles of the trip will be on interstates. Plans call for four stops at motorcycle museums, including hosted receptions, several hosted lunch stops at Harley-Davidson dealers, and a few city-hosted events. Motorcycles will be on display at each stop, and the public is encouraged to take photos and meet the riders.

For additional information about the race, the route, the riders, its history and more, visit http://www.motorcyclecannonball.com.

CALIFORNIA Dangerous Gun Ban/Confiscation Bill Defeated Yesterday,
but the Anti-Gun Threat is Not Over Yet–

Please continue to contact your state legislator to OPPOSE all anti-gun legislation!

Yesterday, the state Assembly Appropriations Committee failed to hear the worst gun ban/confiscation bill in twenty years. Thanks to your calls and e-mails the Committee decided not to bring Senate Bill 249 up for a Committee vote, which resulted in this egregious gun ban stalling out.

SB 249 would have banned the lawful use and possession of California’s modern sporting rifles and would have also led to the confiscation of these firearms without reimbursement.

Unfortunately, the threat is still far from over. On Monday, August 13, anti-gun Senate Bill 1315 passed in the Assembly yesterday by a vote of 47 to 28 and will now go to the Governor. Please contact Governor Jerry Brown and urge him to VETO SB 1315. Governor Jerry Brown can be reached at 916-445-2841.

Let the Governor know that SB 1315 is just a stepping stone to completely destroying California’s firearms preemption law. Such firearms preemption laws are in place to standardize firearm laws across the state. SB 1315 would authorize Los Angeles County to enact and enforce an ordinance that is stricter than state law regarding the manufacture, sale, possession or use of any BB device, toy gun, replica of a firearm or other device that is so substantially similar in coloration and overall appearance to an existing firearm as to lead a reasonable person to perceive that the device is a firearm and that expels a projectile that is no more than 16 millimeters in diameter.

Senate Bill 1315 – Local Regulation of Firearms

There are still several anti-gun bills in the state Assembly and Senate that could be brought up for final consideration and passage as early as next Monday, August 20.

On the Senate floor for final consideration: Please contact your state Senator IMMEDIATELY and respectfully urge him or her to OPPOSE AB 1527, AB 2333, AB 2460 and AJR 45. 

Assembly Bill 1527 – Open Carry Ban (of unloaded long gun)
Assembly Bill 2333 – Liability for negligent storage of BB, airsoft and other toy guns
Assembly Bill 2460 – Ban of Law Enforcement Transfer of Firearms
Assembly Joint Resolution 45 – Reinstatement of Federal Assault Weapons Ban

On the Assembly floor for final consideration:Please contact your Assemblyman and respectfully urge him or her to OPPOSE SB 1221 andSB 1366.  

Senate Bill 1221 – Hunting Ban
Senate Bill 1366 – Lost and Stolen Reporting of Firearms

The following bill is pending in the state Senate Rules Committee. Please contact the members of this committee and urge them to OPPOSE AB 2512.  

Assembly Bill 2512 – ammunition regstration/large capacity ammunition magazine ban

BONNEVILLE SCRAMBLE—
Okay, here’s the list as it stands. I will detail our rear exhaust heat shield, finish mounting the oil filter and hooking up oil lines. Then I just need to align the transmission and hook up the clutch, with the help of Dr. Willie. And we need a top motormount, also of the good Doctor’s design.
 

Next week we will continue to detail the new 2004 Bikernet Van, from Richard Kranzler, replace the tires (maybe). Add some Wellington sign vinyl 5-Ball racing stickers, pick up our Kendon Trailer, and start packing. Oh, we need our 5-Ball racing T-shirts, and Ball caps.

We will wait for the 5-Ball Raycer to appear, and the 5-Ball Honda Sportbike, pack up and cut a salty trail on Thursday. Lee Clemens, the boss of Departure Bike Works is flying out to be apart of our team.

Hang on!
