...that goes inside the rear brake arm for the drum brake bikes. The barrel that the brake pull rods goes through.Not the adjustment nut on the back,just the cylindrical piece that goes inside the brake arm(not lever). If you can understand what I'm trying to say and have one....I'd like to purchase it pleaseThx!

I'm lazyNah,actually I didn't have a bolt that would fit it right and I almost jumped on the lathe and made one. But I know the material Honda used won't rust and give me trouble down the road. I don't have a piece of stainless to make it out of and I wasn't sure aluminum would hold up.

That's the doo-hickey right there!

It will be in the mail Monday. Just got back from looking at the hope next build bike and will be picking it up next weekend.

With some luck this will be in the build thread in the next two weeks. I will have some deicisions to make as the swing arm, forks and wheels were change to a Suzuki and it has dics front and rear brakes. The wheels look like some kind of mag wheel Don't know if I will use them or stick to the plan with spoke wheel the same size. Like a 18" Time will tell.

Getting pumped for this.Build

Shiny I will keep that in mind. I am liking the disc brake idea. I just need to see were it will go once I get started on the build.

Sounds good bud.Thanks! I do have some rear disc parts laying around too. If you do decide to go with the spokes, I have a spoke wheel for a rear disc. Not sure if it's a 17'' or 18''. I'm thinking 17

The wife put the doo-kickey in the mail today. You should get it in 4-5 days. Look for a padded envelope.

If the envelope is the size of a room, and 2 nice men with needles and scrubs on, run.

Not that I'm speaking from personal experience or anything.

Ooh, shooting therapy!

Okay, let's see...

First, you take legal explosives and put them into pill bottles...


Then you prep the counselors...


You set up the targets (Zombie apocalypse preparations). They also had blood packs in 'em. :D


Then after a neighbor gets pissed that you're blowing things up, you give the Brit that's never shot a gun the biggest gun you've got, load it with a dozen tracers, and point to the now-combined pill bottles!


Then you have group therapy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYd05PStpws


And of course, all your issues disappear:






Sorry, no padded rooms for me. I've had therapy.

(Note: The final video was ~20 lbs tannerite. It takes 1/2 pound to blow off the hood of a car. We shook the house that we were at and paintings fell off the wall. We pissed off the neighbor that came by so much, he called the DNR who pulled up, asked if we were being safe (yep!) and left. Didn't check what we were doing (we'd already cleaned up) and didn't even get out of his jeep.)
