That ad was just for publicity was it? Interesting. Dick are you going to have your findings in print at some point? It would be a great read!

Jeff's bike
Originally posted by c.o. View PostI checked the auction results earlier today and I didn't notice Jeff's machine. Maybe he decided not to sell it?
I was at Jeffs shop 2 week ends ago,to look at racer seats and do a quality comparison between the several board tracker seats he has, before I decide who to buy from.
2 of his bikes are at Vegas,He stated that they will be saved for the last day of auction

Ken, when you mentioned a second bike I decided to do a search. I see that he is/was selling his Lake as well. He did a great job on that one!

From Mid-America.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_MGe5KA_go Do you think the Lake is somewhat misrepresented on the description? It leaves one to wonder.

Originally posted by pem View PostHerb, here is what the motor looked like in the late 90's. Notice the shafts protruding from both sides of the crankshaft. I wonder what it was made for. I also attached the front cover from a Lake Motor Co. brochure. It lists all the uses for the motor. WOW! Jack of all trades.

What is the date of that ad? Why do I think it's 1919?
Do you know of any other Lake motors in existence? It sure is Perry E. Mack cool. Jeff did a very interesting thing with it so long as people don't think it's a real vintage make but like Cory said: "What might have been."Last edited by HarleyCreation; 01-18-2010, 12:31 PM.
