[junkyarddog]

Anyone looking for a motor for a new project, stop by and see me. I will have a 38 EL, 39 UL & 63 Pan & 73 Shovel along. All have titles. I will also have an assorment of frames with me.

Hey Phil and old friends. I won't be able to leave tomorrow for the Viking chapter meet as the work schedule didn't shrink enough. Maybe I should have retired at 55 like all the rest of the smart people. Enjoy the meet, I know I always have.

Darn it Rooster! I was hoping to steal things from you, for a fair price, of course!
Wish I were qualified to advise you on how to steal from yourself, such as playing while paying-work would have produced more play-dough. tough call!

meant to ask, will Siggi be there?
btw, I'll be the clown with 2 young passengers in the field events, if plans come about. .. you could have had a laugh, eh?

For the record. Siggi is battling cancer. The tumor was removed this week. He demanded his Doctor perform the surgery to allow enough recovery time for Davenport. We're splitting a room there. Have fun Phil and we'll see you downthe road.

Ross, you left me stunned with the Siggi report, sorry for you and all of us. Hope you fellas make Davenport, see you there!

Farm--, I mean St Paul Viking meet was anemic by earlier standards of number of vendors, but I was thrilled to be there, and enjoyed myself just the same. Rained out the field games and the old bike ride, which disappointed my young passengers, rained out some shopping, but a lot must be said for the display hall. We saw Thiem, Mpls, Wagner, and a host of Brit bikes, the walls (in a building 180' x 140' ?) covered with adv and other literature. Special for me was a first-time touch (fondle, actually!) of a Cyclone motor; I'd only seen pix before yesterday. Now I feel like I know that motor inside and out (not).

and I bought scout parts!

and we slept in a tent, like rocks! and I didn't get lost chasing coffee at 5:30 am (can't believe I forgot the coffee pot). ........ and the toilet paper? I think it was Charmin!

Anyone get a photo of the Cyclone motor?

I did not take a camera, but wish to comment. It was Bob Chantland's, and he pointed out little peculiarities, such as the spherical bearings in the bevel drive shafts, the machine-work details. I noted the very small cam lobes, and minute attachments of cam shaft housing body to the heads, and spindly little rocker and yoke parts. Seems all of those top end parts were about half as large as they needed to be. No forced oil to top end either. .. intake manifold was copper. Literature showed flat-top pistons, but.....?
