Re: Truck led headlight

That link does't look like the one I have… that looks like an ordinary halogen light, Moose. The actual LED trucklite will fit into stock headlight assemblies just like their original bulbs do.

The one in your picture, moose, looks like a Halogen light. Not at all the same.

Re: Fuel pump advice needed.

I'm wondering if you have to dimple the frame on a Big Block bike for the mechanical pump? Do they go on the identical spot on the engine block?


I believe that the BB frame differs a little from the SB frame.

I actually bought the last of the Falken tires (all four) from a franchise tire store… he said they were discontinued. I was bummed out, because I liked how it performed and asked him why… He just shrugged his shoulders and said… "They went over like ceramic condoms I guess…." I took my ti...

Re: New rear brake on Boss Hoss bikes

I installed the factory upgrade on my bike. I had to replace the entire rotor because the buttons and the inner disc were so badly worn… it rattled when I just got ON the bike. I had brake fade on the stock set up even after replacing the brake fluid. It's the second rotor in 50,000 miles. Maybe tha...

I ran a couple of years with the stock Avon, then switched to Falken (ran four of those), and finally back to the Avon, now I have a Tire groover, because we get a fair bit of rain here in Canada, and the Winter's wreak havoc on our highways… so the flat car tire tends to perform 'wonky' like that r...

That's the spirit Barry… showing your Hosiery like that!

I don't sense Shriner's comment as all that particularly negative. Maybe he's just worried that the more sponsors, might appear like the other site.

Not entirely sure.

It's interesting here in Canada. Political correctness won't allow us to call Native people "Indians"… it's like using the 'n' word for blacks (which there are very very few blacks in Canada - not sure why that is… maybe the Minus 40 weather keeps them smart enough to say out of this crap)...
