hey dudes-
well, i don't have the straight poop on that ebay eldo yet, but so far,
john [the owner] sez that the pistons are 'italian', the rings are 'chevy',
and the liners are 'american'.
yep, i pressed for details- they haven't arrived yet. on another note- i
was installing my spiffy new, chrome, mgcycle-supplied, head-pipes [you win
ian adkins!] and i fired the ol' gal up [loud!]- there seemed to be little
pressure coming out of the left pipe, i could easily cover it up w/my hand.
there's new rings, re-ground valves, etc. rt. side sounded much stronger.
comp. test said they were close [165-left, 172-rt.] any ideas?
oh- hd fishtails installed [man are they quiet :{ but look great :} ] only
prob is the centerstand 'loops'. centerstand has like, no ground clearance.
had to remove the 'loops', will re-weld in diff. possition, hopefully.
otherwise, carry a long stick. that stand was really great, once ya'll told
me how to use it! well, cya!
