    The repurposing thread

    A while ago, a good motorcycling friend of mine gave me some leftover parts from builds he has done over the years. I have always thought that the BMW Speedos with the speedos in the bucket would make the coolest desk lamp. Well this isn't a bmw headlight and speedo, so the BMW purists can...

    Its a popular upgrade if you got the gumption to go through the hassle. Probably weighs about the same as the RZ but i can get way better rubber selection for the rear wheel and its way stiffer. The view is a bit exagerated with nothing else on the frame Petersburg

    Spent all last night machining parts for my '88 Yamaha RZ350 build. Im mounting a suzuki rgv250 (vj23) swingarm on the RZ. While the width of the swingarm is fine the stock pivot bolt is too narrow. I happened to have a pivot bolt sleeve from an FZ600 laying around, which i turned down on...

    Motorcycle Engine Beer Tap

    I have had beer through it, Trapezium Session IPA from Petersburg, VA. It was quite tastey. I will take note of the Perlick taps for the next time i build one. Which could actually be quite soon.

    Intake ports wouldn't really work well with a motor like that. There wouldn't be enough space between the spigot and the top of the case Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    This project is not for me this time. A neighbor has commissioned my services on this. Should be a pretty cool outcome. I'll post some pictures when it's done Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It's all beat to hell. The pictures make it look better than it actually is. The best thing on it is the seat Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The latest project that rolled into the shop. It's not restorable, but it'll make for some good auto art Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The backside are just the carburetors. I still like how they looked mounted up. The lines run through the block where the crank would've been then up through the cylinders and out through the exhaust valves Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Both of the E39s are mine. The sedan was a 540i 6 speed which was involved in a bad wreck. The wagon was 2000 540i automatic. I ripped the transmission and what not out of the sedan and put it in my wagon, so I could have a V8 6 speed station wagon. It's 1000 times better with a manual. On...

    Here is my "home" garage which gets just as much work as the big one. Typically I keep my smaller projects here or whatever current motorcycle I'm working on. A couple weeks ago I finally got my home gym setup in there as well. It's just about perfect. I have internet and TV in there, a...

    One of the guys on another thread here suggested I start my own thread of my garage. Well lucky for me, I have 2 which just means an absurd amount of unfinished projects get thrown into both places My first place is an old tobacco warehouse from the 1920s, which then became the city bus depot...

    I don't really disagree. Keeping parts for the handle that are still from the rear of the bike was tricky to find stuff that would work. I really like the camshaft. But there is only 1 of them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
