General Discussion / Re: The Brighton bike fully 'restored' ?????
« on: September 30, 2018, 10:03:09 pm »
It sounds like the guy who owns the bike is wealthy and isn't concerned about the originality, museum or resale value. Just knowing that it is one of the first bikes of a very historic run. Restoring it and enjoying for what it is. A one of three of kind pre-production bike. Oh well life is short. To each their own I suppose. It was sure exciting to see how much he paid for it.

I don't understand why they restored it. Lost all of its original patina, etc. I can't imagine it ever being worth as much as they recently paid for it in original condition.

Steve,
I am glad to hear that you know and keep up with them. It's just amazing to hear that they rebuild their motors as needed for the cross country journey. I hope to own a pre-1930 bike someday. Good luck with your Master's degree. As one of my professors used to say "Press On" by Calvin Coolidge.
Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
The slogan "Press On" has solved and always will
solve the problems of the human race.

Hi Steve,
Have you heard about the Motorcycle Cannonball? 1929 and earlier motorcycles driving cross country. This year in September they are going from Portland, Maine to Portland, Oregon with a stop in Sturgis. They might be close enough to northern Colorado for you do drive your 1927 Harley up to rendezvous with them as they pass by. I have attached the link so you and other members can see the article.

Parts Q&A's and Feedback. / Re: Identifying Authentic Tools
« on: April 24, 2018, 10:10:40 pm »
Hi Wayne,
I think if anyone has the early Sandcast tool kits they would be able to help identify which the earlier. My guess would be the tools on the left with the extra markings may be earlier/rarer tools. But I am not sure. I haven't seen those markings before on any of the Honda tools I have seen.
