New Shoes...

So I got the tire and rim all mounted up yesterday but the weather was way less than cooperating. Today was a little cool but nice and I was able to get out and go for a ride. You can't beat a new tire, tube, rim seal, mounted and balanced for all less than $100. Gotta love swap meets!!!

Keene Swap Meet

So yesterday was the Keene Swap Meet I went with my buddy Mike. We got up early and headed out I wasn't looking for anything particular and Mike was looking for some parts for his Ironheads transmission. It ended up being a good day, the weather was perfect the temps were good, and I got some good deals. I ended up picking up a Good Year thin double white wall rear tire for $25 with perfect tread, and a Bell Star helmet for $10. The helmet is in perfect shape the inside is a little dirty but in great shape. There was a rapido tank some guys were holding on to and I was waiting for them to put it down but they ended up buying it for $30, which means it will probably be on ebay soon enough. Then we stopped by a little small charity car show on the way back and then went to our buddy Dave's house for a few beers and some dinner. Over all a pretty good Sunday.

A shot Mike took while driving, I was reading a classic car mag which is giving me this Wednesdays Wagon.

Swap Meet Finds

So the bike is still seized up and if I don't break it free in a couple more days I will take the top end off and try to tap it free. But on Sunday I went with my buddies Mike, Dave, and Steve. It was a typical swap meet and I was hoping to get a good deal on some clubman bars and a set of pods. We all made out pretty well I didn't get the pods but I did get the clubmans, a service manual for the CB, and a Honda CB350 tank. Mike got a FL fender to run on is 73 IronHead and a new race for his transmission since he threw his rollerbearings and ate up the other race. Dave came out with a sweet little Suzuki tank and 2 pairs of gloves for his wife. I think if I remember we paid $100 for every thing we all got. Now if I can only get the CB unseized because I would like to take at least one spin on it before I really tear into it.
