From the Salt Torpedo to Austin, Texas Another whacky weekend settling in after a run to Austin, Texas and back. It’s cool and I visited with Jesse James. I returned and dove back into the Torpedo. I’m working on my “Splintered Road” screenplay. We are looking at taking the Salt Torpedo to El Mirage for an SCTA event on the dry lakebed in November.

It’s all about Motorcycles and the Salt Torpedo I’ve fixed somethings and hunted others. I need to address my gas tank once more. It started as a mini-Sportster tank from Paughco. We just needed to add some mounting bungs and securely braze them in place. No Problem, right? READ THE WEEKEND ROUNDUP IN THE CANTINA – Join Today

It’s a Mix of Madness and Metal By Bandit with shots from Wrench and Michael Lichter, the good ones. Oh and girls from Barry Green I rode to Camarillo to Jim’s Retirement party after having lunch with Rebecca, my 5th wife. In a world gone mad and bikers from hell roaming the city nights, it’s cool to see a solid family like Jim’s unit blossom around motorcycle parts and everything is made in America at JIMS. Mike and his son were returning to the Headquarters after the Born Free Weekend. CLICK HERE TO READ THE ROUNDUP IN THE CANTINA – Subscribe Today

You know me, I can’t sit still and talk about old times when we’re burnin’ daylight. I had to monkey with the Torpedo exhaust system again. The turn-out was going to be an issue. Micah and I got together on Monday and hammered at the firewall. We had a long discussion with Drew, who is a Bonneville AMA, and FIM tech. We kicked around the massive fire suppression bottles and whether we need two or one for both compartments.
