Hi I'm Matt, I have a motorcycle shop, I deal with a lot of older jap bikes but I don't discriminate. I've had wrench time on almost all makes and models. I've read through posts here over the years and found some great information. I'm a self taught mechanic and will dabble in any trade when the need arises,
My tool collection has grown quite large over the years. I've been planning to do quite a few restorations over the years and have many bikes in boxes and down to bare frame. I finally gathered most the tools necessary to do the restorations.
It's been a long search for a good used large compressor, My 30 devilbiss tank and old ingersall pump have been put to good use and I really like it but the capacity is not enough to do any sandblasting. I finally found a decent used 80 gallon with a B4900 pump and a 5hp. unfortunately I tried removing the flywheel and damaged it in the process along with snapping the retaining screw. If in anyone has these parts kicking around LMK I really hate to shell out the $130 for a new one. I really thought it was a $20 whenI tried pulling it off like a gorilla
