That wont bode well for his health and safety. He seems to have a "droopy" eye, a potential sign of a mild stroke ...

Be safe Mitt!

I think you spelled "State" wrong and your a bit confused about the colors to ..... guess that comes with age .....

I got the colors right. You just need to put on the tri- focals back on.

I might have to try and buy that Harrison from the bee and make it a Michigan bike...

Looks great, and impressive details. I'm rebuilding a wildcat that someone started to build a chopper out of. I have to cut and re-weld the neck back to stock dimensions, and shorten the front forks. Can someone measure the rear to front axle distance for me? Stock fork tube length would help, as well as the neck angle if possible? anyone have a bearing number for the neck? I should probably post elsewhere on the site? thank you.
