Hey Guys
I never posted pics of my Powell Or Boonie after i finished them. I should have taken pics before windber, but heres the aftermath.
The Powell turned out better then planed. It really is awsome! Very powerfull and fast. I rebuilt an old Tecumseh HM100 (10hp) snowblower engine for it. I STOLE the idea of turning the intake manifold upside down from yellowhand.I put on a Tav-2, welded up a couple H/D springs for the swing arm, welded up a braket for the tank under the seat, custom made header. changed the brake from a heal to a toe brake, and had kenny make me a seat for it.
If you notice the slight bend in the forks, its from the last day at windber. I hit a bolder and indowed over the bars. Im going to try to bend them back.
The Boonie is a Monster! It has so much torque! I still have to do a few finishing toutches. I want to change the jackshaft, and put on a new rear tire.
I really changed this around from how i had it last year. I built a Tecumseh Star engine for it, put on a comet 500 torque converter, built a jackshaft for it (last minute), live axle, disk brake, 41 chain and sprocket, custom made header, custom clutch cover (its so big because of the torque converter), i Stole the idea of a fire extinguisher gas tank from Yellowhand, fuel pump, and another one of Kennys seats.
I havent had a chance to test it much. I just finished it a few days before windber. I also had a oil leak in the side cover spitting out oil at windber. I think it was from plugging the puse ports in the side cover and using the breather for pulse. Ill get it fixed up this month and post a few video clips.
