Easy Rider and Chopperguy

I SHOULD get my chop back this week. We've run into all sorts of problems with the kicker. It started when we took the outer hub off. Last time I had problems with the kicker, someone decided to attach the gear to the hub by welding it rather than riveting it. So we tried to track down a new hub. Not the easy to find little one in the center of the business but the extremely rare and hard to find bigger one that all of the clutch parts fit into. Then as the folks down at the shop try to stick it all together again, they realize that they don't have the proper spacer on hand. So now I sit around waiting for the part to get in.

The chop broke down on me almost a month ago. As stated earlier, even then I couldn't get her out on the road without a breakdown. I keep hoping that eventually we can get this thing tightened up. I need at least a good solid month of daily riding right now. I've started to go just a little nuts from the wait. Perhaps the time has come to really purge the demons from the old girl…
