Shovelhead head vents..

I can't see the pictures here, I'm at work.
Why is it so ugly, is it a Sportster? HooHaaHaaHaa!
:roflmao:

:gah::gah::roflmao:

:roflmao::roflmao:All depends how you look at it JB, whether you appreciate the work and fabrication involved in building an inline twin engine shovel or not.
This bike was build before you could go to a catalog and order stuff....you wanted something done you had to do it/make it yourself

I appreciate the fabrication that is involved, BUT, it is till friggen ugly!!!

Yeah,EasyRiders or American Iron,I can't remember which,most likely ER...it was built in the early 80's by the late Mike Roach from Dartmouth NS....Mike left us a couple of years back but his wife kept up the business (Toads Cycle Works) If you're ever come to Nova Scotia the bike is on display in the shop, also his twin engine Evo...Wanna see a pic of that one JB, looks like a space ship....:roflmao:

JB beauty is in the eye of the beer holder:roflmao:

Hell yeah! I'll drink to that~!

:fight::fight::rant::gah:

Hehehe...OK JB since you asked...









:devil::devil:

You just dont want the oil dumping on the flywheels, gearcase or oil pump is a good place for it to drain into.
Yeah its nitrous, ive got 2 bottles on it under the tank. The bottle under the battery is for my air shifter. Nitrous on a shovel is do-able but there are certain things you have to maintain to keep from breaking things, expensive things. I dont use it very often - it can be tempermental but it'll rip your arms off when it hits.
The thunderheader is a proven - power pipe, great for everything but the strip - and damn near great there too.

if i knew how to post a picture on this site i'd do it. The attachments are how i fit the bottles

Thanks TNJ, more pics would be nice! My head oil lines go back to the oil pump. My bike is running great! I am about to install a set of STD dual plug heads.
I see you have a thunderjet valve, I have been debating on getting one, are they worth the money?
Here are my 2 bikes. The red has a 88ci motor, the blue one is 93ci, it was 103ci.
Have you seen the electric easy shifters by Pingel?

Nice machines Tommy - quite a pair. I know the 103/93 can be a mutha to kick!
Thunderjet - to me - well worth it if you are into performance and tuning.
I havent seen the pingel easy shift, there were a few good electric shifts out a few years back when I set this one up. Dale Walker had a cool one. I went with pingle air and tied it into a dyna shift counter for better control of the momentary ign kill - the old 4 speed appreciates it too.. Have an onboard compressor (hidden under the trans) to air up the bottle at stop lights.

Funny, the older I get - the faster it gets, yet the slower I tend to ride it.. WTF is with that?

well.... not exactly the picture i wanted to attach. (fyi thats Steve McQueen)

:roflmao:Ain't that the truth!!!:roflmao:

That is one Bad Shovel you've got there...

I might put on a Thunderjet when I have nothing else to do. The 93" isn't too bad to kick start. I couldn't kick the 103" It had too much compression.
Does the air shifter work good on the old HD 4 speed tranny? The electric shifter only works on the 5 speed trannys because of the force and throw required, they don't work well on a 4 speed. How much is an air shifter set-up +/-? How often does the air bottle need to be refilled?
