Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Sorry Guys, I am wrong about the TH 350 NOT having a lock up T/C. My best bud Frank says that they had Lock Up T/C since 1968. My bad for thinking. Paul H TH350 transmissions were introduced in 1969 and didn't have a lock-up converter until 1979-84, when GM introduced a TH350-C with a lock-up. 4L60...

Hannigan converted our 2011 Street Glide,two years ago,and its ride quality is better than any other trike I've ever ridden. http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s6/sherryle/Clint/11056631_1012100138813738_8070806096776558477_o%20trimmed%20600x362_zpsptzcagmu.jpg Our 2006 BH trike w/Arnott air ride wo...

Talk to Marv Jorgenson at Chopper City. He made us a helluva deal on a Kewlmetal front end for our trike.

Man,that is a great looking fairing!

These are very nice covers,made from a satin material,designed to fit a Boss Hoss Sierra or 57 Chevy trike with or without fairing. Sherry and I only used it a few times and it's been stored away in its own custom carry bag. IIRC,we paid over $200 for it,w/shipping. Click on the included link and sc...

I really like them,both. Paint jobs are a subjective thing so whether people really like that element is not hugely important. Lots of little details on both I really liked;the tasteful black-out treatment on the bike and the KM trees & rear wheels on the trike. Not a fan of the plain chrome LS ...

Was that the trike with Kewl Metal trees? Liked those and the rear wheels,too.

Yes,they do.

That's a good looking set-up,Barry. I actually prefer that fairing over the factory unit.

My 2012 Gangsta with Kewlmetal rides great riding down the road but I do get a lot of wobble at slow speed with bumps or pot holes Our 2006 57 with them never had any headshake. I didn't install them for ride quality which was a good thing as they didn't improve it,at all. Greatest benefit was the ...

Trike triple trees with similar rake & trail numbers as the KewlMetal units. Power steering without any headshake. Nicer running boards. The standard units look like an afterthought. Offer a few board options. More wheel options for trikes. Offer a wheel/tire delete option so customers can insta...

Call Chopper City and talk to Marv Jorgenson. He made us a great deal on ours.

Dean just called and told me about this,Billy. Sherry and I are both in shock. Damn,this is just so hard to comprehend,right now. Our prayers go out to Susan and the family.

Buck and I just talked about Daytona a couple of weeks ago. Godspeed,my friend. See you on the other side.

Sherry and I have had some pretty serious health issues over the last couple of years so I certainly understand,Barry.

We're both doing a lot better now. I retired from PPG yesterday so now she and I can have more time,together.

Damn,Barry. I sure hope you and Gwen are getting better. Getting older is not for pussies,that's for sure.

Glad to see you found this site,Paul. Congrats on the new ride! These folks will take good care of you.

Our 57 had drum brakes. They worked ok but were not very linear,hard to tell where the lock-up point was,sometimes. I rode a 2012 trike and its rear brakes were very strong & linear. Don,if that's true about the Crown Vic rotors,it's possible I might have the origin of the brake components,backw...

Ron,check out the rear disc brakes on the later BH trikes. They have larger diameter,vented rotors and huge calipers. I think the rotors are off a Ford Crown Victoria and calipers from a 2005-later Mustang GT.

Damn,that really sucks. Godspeed,Mike.

Sorry to hear about your illness,Mike. Good luck with the treatment. You will be fine. I fought an advanced case of prostate cancer from 2002-2005 and am still here to talk about it so I know you can beat yours,too.
Treatment ain't no fun,though.

Congrats on being retired,Dave,if even only semi-. Better late than never. I've got a little over three more months before I retire.(will be 62 in November) Sherry retired five years ago,at age 55. She and I plan to do a West Coast loop/ride next year and I'm sure we will make a stop in Las Vegas. W...

Some of my former builds:
1940 Ford Deluxe Coupe

1957 Chevy Nomad

1969 Chevy El Camino SS

Pretty sure they will fit fine,Barry. Perv installed a pair of them on Deb's 57 trike.

I bought a pair of Ridge boots in Daytona,a few years ago. They are the lightest,most comfortable boots I've ever owned.

After I sold our 57,I was basically told I was no longer welcome over there. That site is so dead now,it's almost a waste of time to even read it.
