Biker Rogue---I also own a home in W Melbourne Fla.I was going to build a
Chopper Trike for there using a Leman(sp?) rear & a Harley extended front!
I pretty much poo-pooed that idea because the prices now are so exorbatent(sp?)The chopper that I just sold was bought new in Conn.It was a kick start.
I now have diabetic neuropothy.With the high compression pistons,in my old
bike,I ended up breaking my foot.I could have changed it to an elec. start,but
then it wouldn't be a '71 anymore.I rode to Laconia,from Conn,many times.I
was born & brought up there.I moved to NH,where my wife is from,(Ports)many yrs ago.Times have really changed!When I was stationed at Pease AFB,
in the early '60s,there were three bikes on base.I had to see the Base Commander,because owning a motorcycle,was actios unbecoming of an Airman.I've been there for the VA now & I bet theres 300.When I was there,it was a SAC Base,now it is National Guard &civilian businesses. Irish
P.S.I don't know if you've ever seen "Biker Buildoff" on the Discovery Channel.
Billy Lane,one of the builders,has a shop,in Melbourne.I bought a T-shirt there.All sizes are $26 or $27.Needless to say,my Grandkids(4),got souvineer
T-shirts,from another shop,that said Melbourne on them!
