    I need an enclosed trailer to tow behind my Deuce

    The hight of the deck on a 105 trailer will make it rough for loading and unloading bikes. Even with long ramps you have the drive up them with nothing to put your feet on while climbing the ramp. They are not that big either. Two dirt bikes and some tools and extra stuff would fill it up...

    Recovering Sarge's M49C

    I can testify to the increase in pucker factor when you look in the rear view and see the towee attemting to pass. I managed to get safely off the road in spite of some knuckle-dragging, mouth breather that decided he couldn't wait to pass until I had safely stopped. Just as he got beside the...

    Bobbed deuce springs

    As I tell prospective deuce buyers when they ask about fuel milage "Why worry about it when you make your own fuel". Using used motor oil and gasoline (50/50 mix) my fuel cost me about 90 cents a gallon. My favorite fuel is half diesel half waste veggie oil....the deuce loves both. If you can't...

    Built me a towbar

    If you can bring them in for around $250.00 you will prob do a land office business. I would be interested since my tow bar dissapeared from a former members shop.

    Think I can fit these???

    That particular boondoggle was called the "Land Train". Another idea that looked good on paper but was a nightmare in reality. There was a junkyard in Yuma, AR, that had parts of one of them left that they bought out of Yuma Proving Grounds. I don't think they ever went into production and only...

    Redstone recovery

    I have driven several out (including the one yesterday). They are good folks to work with. Teresa, the head GL person, rocks as far as customer service goes. The yard guys are very helpful too. They'll jump start vehicles and, if you are picking up other stuff, assist with loading. I had my...

    Arkansas Tank?

    Well....I found a anti-aircraft gun sitting in a guys front yard. The tale behind that was really bizzare. It's still there rusting quietly while I figure out a way to bamboozle him out of it.

    MV transporters

    Since I am on Med leave from work I am using a Dodge dually and 28 foot gooseneck to haul for folks near me. I have picked up at several different GL locations and have a military ID which means I can roll right through the gate without an escort (some military bases require this). PM your needs...

    Calling all out of work SS members

    Think about this....there is a lot of crumple in a behemeth Caddy or Olds. Crumple means a lot of the force is negated before it hits the driver. Two deuces hitting head on at 30-40 MPH is going to kill someone.... I don't care how much protective gear you got on. Deuces have MASS...massive...

    Is this a good deal?

    Parts is parts. You can use them yourself or "go to a rally and horse trade with your low life buddies" (quote from my ex-wife). If you have the time and money go for it.
