Modifications and worries walk hand in hand.

They are going to have to change this sites name to my communist bike here pretty soon.

Dang those are some nice rainbows, I live on a lake where I fish pretty much everyday in the summer if its nice, using a 22ft electric powered Pontoon, it isnt fast but its silent. Lake is full of 3 pound bass and occasion Lunkers, and has some nice 20lb pike we catch and release each year. Your Garage sounds like mine...Just need to spend more time organizing so you can buy more fun stuff. The DF 250 looks so amazing and light and thin compared to my URAL, I have a feeling Im going to really enjoy the DF Bobber this summer. Bet that Milling machine and Lathe will come in handy. I am adding Honda Heat sink rays to the DF. I had to Mill down the thickness of the heat sink to 1/4 Inch where the two bolts go thru so the exhaust bolts can reach thru it. It will cool the motor a bit and add a touch of the Old school to the engine. Just need to pull the exhaust off. Wondering if the exhaust header where it fits in the the manifold is smooth of if that flange is welded on to it? Hope its smooth so I can slip the heat sink on or back to the drawing board.
I will post some picts when done.

What pierced it? I can't imagine anything being thrown about the head that could even pierce sheet metal unless the cylinder or parts there of were disintegrating.

Yep side car and all! The My Communist bike yep it fits ...Gee I wonder if Im drawn to the elegant crudness and the fact they need you to work on them and make them better. But truth betold its probably why we all bought a DF. Think about the fact these com bikes are pretty different. I love the hand cut rubber washers on the URAL that insulate the tail lite that held on by regular washers on the outside WTH, they R cut nice and crooked as example...see it will give me something to do. Or the nice crooked hand cut floor mat in the side car...

Back to work

BOB, Glad you posted a Picture of that Ural Patrol, as I didnt have the guts to post a picture of my new bike on the DF Bobber forum. I am never selling My DF either, I have too much time invested and love it like the work of art it is. PS mY U R AL is white at the moment.
Thanks! LOL

I have a 12' "53" Montgomery Wards boat sitting on a "50" home made trailer, with a 4 hp Johnson. Talk about old school. I troll leaded line out about 300 ft. makes for some pretty nice tail dancing when you hook a nice one. I'd like to see pictures of the heat sink, sound like something I might like to do. PICT0003.jpg
