    That twist grip is off a Harley Davidson Sprint motorcycle. I've had several of the Sprints, both 250's and 350's. Good running bikes that handle like a dream and stick to the road like tar. There is a little tin cover that slips into the bottom and a small screw holds it in place at the top.

The muffler is now sitting in my electolisys vat being de-rusted. I have the muffler heat guard in the smaller tank doing the same. After 8 hours, I'm starting...

    I rode the Bird El Tigre Saturday afternoon. Some missing parts, a few hours of sin removal and it's a rider. Puttin' round the yard was fun! Handed it over to my youngest daughter and she loves it! She ran the tank dry. I'm working on the Fox. I think it's a Condor? Blue paint...no idea...

    Parts are available for Kohler K series engines. Points and condensors can be picked up from any authorized Kohler dealer or try Napa for a set of "will fit" points. They work OK for a couple years.
