heres my one of my ideas for my gas tank. i was thinking of puttubg ait scoops on the side

[TheCafeKid]

Thats actually pretty badassed looking! I dig it!

[Ironriot]

How about stretching it out? Or lowering it so it can atleast looked stretched. I like the air scoops though. BUt a nice long tank with scoops would look BADASS

The final tank will probally be a little shorter. This was to just get a ruff Idea and to see what you guys think about it. after christmas I will be able to get on to start shaping the real tank.

Dood i love Oddlots...lol I just snaked some handy dandy lil tools i didnt have, like some larger allen wrenches, and a screwdriver with a pivot head on it...and a whole bunch of toothbrushes, and simple green and engine degreaser....Let the cleaning begin!! lol

[n1elkyfan]

You know I never thought to go there for cleaning stuff but it looks like a trip is in order.

[TheCafeKid]

man that simple green works like a charm...Takes off OLD crusty grease and grime in short order. This motor's gonna shine like the top of the Chrysler building before im done. I just need to purchase a bench grinder next.

Hey Cole what you gettin into after work/school tomorrow?? If ya feel like hangin out and shootin the breeze gimmie a shout. I will be outside all day tomorrow wrenching, and then when it gets dark, i shall adjourn to the manhole for more wrenching fun!

[n1elkyfan]

Yea I can come over tomorrow I get off school at 5 so I could be over a little after that.

[TheCafeKid]

Cool man Should be good times. With any luck i'll have that motor out of the GS, or at least unbolted and the chain off and all the other goodies disconnected. Gonna take to the old motor with the engine cleaner, and see how she;ll look. Got lots of little stuff we can do, if you got any parts to play with bring em by, always fun to tinker.

[n1elkyfan]

I don't know If I got any little things to mess with but If I can think of anything I'll bring it over. Hopefully you won't have to break your back caering that engine down to the man hole. I'm going to get off here I got to hit the sack.

[TheCafeKid]

Well if the motor has to sit outside for a day or two till i get my bro or someone over to give me a hand gettin it downstairs no biggie there, i have a skid to sit it on and i can cover it up...the big thing is i NEED to get the rest of the bike down there so i can start dismantling it, clean up and finish lil frame bits and stuff and send the rest off for paint. Have a good night man, i'll see ya tomorrow!

[TheCafeKid]

Riot i will have pics of those boots for you tomorrow to see if they'll work. If they do, you can have em all

[Ironriot]

Sweetness man post them up when you get the chance. Tomorrow there'll be no wrenching for me. Gonna go with a buddy for emotional support tomorrow while he gets inked lmao

[TheCafeKid]

RIOT!!! Pics for you my friend...i think we have a winner. I now see what you are talking about.




Here's the manifold they came off of...look familiar?? They should be held on at both ends with hose clamps
