Witness Slips Needed Today (2/20/24) Lawmakers to Consider Enacting California Air Emissions Restrictions on Illinois Bikers & Off Road Riders

Late last night, ABATE of Illinois learned that HB1634 will be heard in committee today at 4pm. This bill would subject ALL Illinois vehicles to restrictions passed by the unelected bureaucrats of the California Air Resources Board. 

This bill would ban internal combustion engines by 2035, and severely restrict your ability to work on and maintain your motorcycles & off road vehicles.

Part 7 of VLXAFL5: Final Assembly Begins

The Paint Returned from TNT

It’s been awhile, but I haven’t dawdled. I’ve been working hard on various projects. That guy in Deadwood, who was once 45 John bought a 1960 Panhead roller/basket case and I’ve been helping with the reconstruction. I rebuilt or built and trans from a case and a sketchy box of parts. With Fab Kevin we built a front disc brake. John rebuilt the rear star hub and I helped with fitment and the rear brake.

We slid in the engine after I stumbled. I used the rear axle and a flat lift jack to jack up the bike, so I could block it, remove the jack and start to install the 5-speed trans in a 4-speed S&S case. The trans didn’t want to go so I filed and ground all the paint out of the 4-speed slots and the slot I made and welded for the 5th stud on the right. I even had to grind the rear tab on the trans case more for additional clearance.

I couldn’t run an old school 4-speed trans for a couple of reasons. It’s an alternator S&S engine and I wanted it to be electric start.
