    just picked this up

    yup, that's an ARCO alright - thanks! and yeah, that's a Bird Terra-Torque and a 1200 Sportster on the right, and on the left front to back is a mostly disassembled Speedway Shrike, my wife's Kikker Hardknock, an '86 Honda 450 that I turned into a bar hopper, and my Father in law's Vulcan that...

    WTB B&S 5HP flathead carb

    just picked up a '93 5HP flathead off SupaFly, it's running decent enough with the tank mounted carb, but i want to rig up the tank on my Bird Terra-Torque: from what I've been reading, I guess I want a Tecumseh H35(?), I found them on the 'bay for around $45 shipped but they say Tecumseh...

    Auxiliary drive shaft - anyone use it?

    Just swapped an OHV Intek for this 5HP flathead from SupaFly: Came off of a tiller, so the small auxiliary drive shaft was used for reverse. It also rotates opposite direction of the main shaft, and at a slower speed (just from eyeballing it, no idea what the ratio might be). Is there...

    Bird Terra-Torque

    Yeah, I'm hoping a fender from Northern Tools will be close enough. Was the rear fender on these the same size as the front? Also, is there any current production tire that would work on the rear of this (but still have the cool lugs?) There's a bunch of cracks along the sidewall but it seems...

    Bird Terra-Torque

    Just picked this up last weekend for $150 with a newer Briggs Intek (more on that below). The only issue so far is the rear brake is pretty rough, so I need some new shoes. Also a few of the teeth on the sprocket are chipped/worn. The motor that came with it starts & runs...

    Speedway Shrike dragged out from collapsed barn

    Hey, new guy here but I've been reading this site for a few months to figure out what I've got. This here is a Speedway Shrike that I pulled out from under my father in law's collapsed barn this summer. It was my brother in law's about 20 years ago, and the barn collapsed under the weight of the...
