Had a thought...i was sittin here thinkin how bad i wished i lived close enough to visit your museum, and i had an idea,...have you ever thought of making a series of well produced hard back coffee table size books of nothing but pictures of every bike in your museum and offering them online to folks across the country that may not ever be able to see your museum in person? Maybe each volune costing around $20 to $30? ....just a thought. Love the videos brother! God bless America!

It's a beautiful place you have there Ken, I know you've put a lot of hard work n no doubt some Dollar too over the yrs!! But I take my hat off to you all you've deserved the results! Fantastic! Well done! My 2008 FXDSE2 SE CVO 110 Custom Dyna's off the road again at the min till I got the £'ss to buy a new rear tire as had a damn rivet go right thro the bloody centre of it!! Gonna get a front too, I use Avon's, 180/55 ZR17 Storm on back and I ain't keen onCobra's so gonna fit a Avon Roadrider on the front 90/90-21 54V should be loads better I think! And need to replace steering lock complete, as it screwed up after I'd ridden it last and locked it up, so was in the locked position and couldn't get the lock out,so lost my rag, butchered the barrel and I paid a mate £10 to use a hacksaw blade only by hand to saw the hardened pin that goes down n located in bottom tree hole, it took him over an HR and a half to get thro it, as only about a 4/5mm gap to get in between the bottom of the steering head and top of bottom tree, I couldn't face standing there that long gettin sore hands n fingures! He he. Big hole in the side of frame now, untill I fit a new unit! That should be easy, I hope! I'm amazed my 110's still running ok just, it vibrates no end the pistons are that loose in the bores after it overheated, due to varying reasons about 2/3 yrs ago it took me £1300 and 5mths to have the money to "bodge" the Top end, I could only afford to re- ring it, Pinion shaft runout was 0.007" when I checked before anything else, but impossible to afford complete motor rebuild £6K min inc' Primary, stupid money! Had to replace the 255's cams, lifters,brgs, but oil pump and camplate were all ok within specs, so must have done something right after I'd lifted the motor out cleaned it all up, fitted few parts ngaskets bolted back in, still goin!! The Thundetmax I'd fitted really helps along with K.n P high flow billet re useable oil filter too, got a few degrees down more straight up, I highly recommend one, pricey but it's definitely helped! Oh well gotta sell another of my small guitar collection to buy parts for bike get back on the road soon I hope! Had to sell four of my electric guitars last time and now think it's gonna be my beloved 1982 MIJ Washburn HB35DL Semi Hollow body electric on fantastic condition a and becoming very rare, but doubt i' get top price for it todays, a good few hundred I hope! All the he.best, Andy, England
