Here's another cool motorcycle museum that was in the next town over from my old hometown. The Doering family owns this as well as V Twin...
Kaplan is about a 2 hr drive east from my old hometown. I'm planning on checking it out on one of my returns to NY.
I/M/O, it's a must have if you own an 86/87. Great price too Six. :wheelie:
Today was a nice quiet Sunday around here, so I decided it was a good day to work on the air duct repair. I took my time and it took me a little...
That's similar to the 6L I looked at. That's the size I'll probably go with. It will be useful when I start refreshing my late brother's 87.
Thanks Rogue. She's coming along nicely. A few more things to address before I consider it "job complete". But we are really close. I think I...

No progress to report this week. I had family in town and some other matters to address so that consumed my time. I ordered new fuel lines from...
I'm going to use another piece of fuel line when I pull it apart again. I'm leaning towards a problem with that fuel line that I just didn't see.
Baz, Like you, I also reattached the breather line and fuel line to the tank before I put the tank back on the bike. I quickly realized there's...
Thanks Baz!
Thanks Joe!
Thanks Baz, I got her running this morning. It fired right up and purred like brand new. I was all good and smiley until I saw fuel leaking from...
I got quite a bit done in the last few days on my 86. I finished up late tonight with the mechanical stuff. I was too tired to run out for non-...
