Yes.

It's just play money, Docc, and everyone knows that play money doesn't count.

From the spring calculator.. If it is truly 30 degrees, 39+30= 69 degrees.. that's over the safe travel limit. I'm not buying that. Yes, it would probably work. I've already tested one like that as a worst case scenario, and it went through a quarter million shifts without issue. That extra .075" ? I'm not sure what happened there. Probably, I misread my scale? I do remember crossing out the .62 right as I was packing the box to send to Scud. If so, I'll eat the cost of making new ones.

Uh oh. The springs I made, and the drawing shows it to be shorter than that. They'll probably be fine, but they are "supposed" to ride on the flat. From memory, the leg length from the center of the coil to the center of the leg is .7" I wonder if they added the bend radius to the dimension? Edit: here's the picture before adding a matching radius to the Mighty Scura. You can see the short arm is on the flat. 2018-01-15_01-15-11 by Charles Stottlemyer, on Flickr

Nicely done..

Now, the hard work begins. I now know why there is a shipping and fondling charge.. Thanks, Scud..

Yeah, 2GuzziDave, now noGuzzi Dave had one, it was a beauty. Chuck in Wisconsin still does. They make paint, ya know..

Docc.. air that gets in gotta gets out. You need 20% more outlet area than inlet area. Roughly. 044 by Charles Stottlemyer, on Flickr I can't imagine some louvers on the bucket hurting anything.. except for rain getting in when you are at the bar drying out.

I've seen two greenies with Magnis. Yours would look good..and the price is right.

If you get time, I'd like one to put on the test rig.

So, what was it?

I just used a padded envelope for the Lucky Phil Extenders. From memory only a couple of bucks or so first class.

Uhh, I know from hard won experience that 6 machines own you.

^^^^ I'll have to say that I can't argue.. I went to Mid Ohio on my new (left over, of course) Centauro, and Guzzi was there with a Greenie, the first one I'd seen. I thought, "Crap."

Thanks, Docc. Well.. that sucks. RIP Bruce. I never met you but wish I had..

I will give you that the ignition key is kool. Peter would be much more eloquent about what I think of the rest.

BTDT, I'll do it again if the crick don't rise..

Nice pitcher, Docc.. Back in the day when I used to go to w ww wwwork.. there was a power line from the main plant to the guard shack that had a row of Nighthawks sitting sideways on the wire. Every morning. About 60 feet long. Never did figure that one out, and too stupid to bring a camera and take a picture.

Wait. Did I miss something here??

Good call there, Docc.

There ya go. Glad I didn't watch it.

I didn't watch the video on purpose, the same as I don't watch people totally screwing up in airplanes. Why imprint bad decisions? I learned 50 some years ago that I would have to lay er down if I overused the back brake. A few years ago, Todd Egan told me that I was screwing up by getting on the brakes too hard and upsetting the chassis entering a turn. He told me, "Follow me at this distance.. (about 10 feet!!) and don't touch the brakes., you won't need them. Keep the same distance." (Gulp) We proceeded to roar around in the mountains faster than I had ever gone. By far. Let's just say it was a learning experience involving flicking into a turn, letting the motorcycle do it's thing.. it *wants* to be stable if you don't mess with it, adding throttle all the way through the turn.. etc. Wat Scud says above.

I'd like to have one to put on the test bench.. Well, it's only QC. What do we have? Is it to spec, etc.

Yeah, those plain ol silver sports are common as dirt. I saw one in Wisconsin last year..

People that come to Aridzona to escape the snow.. Flori duh has their share, too.
