I know the feeling I have 2 of my 3 scooters,
That I have been able to get on the road .
No other time to do upgrades .
I have parts ready and waiting to go on .
Just know free time being essential also means being busy times 2.
Told my wife If this keep up Dont look at the Credit Card Bill
Because I might have to go Crazy buying race parts .

So many of my mates are going crazy with the lock down. Weather is getting nice. All you want to do is ride. I feel your pain. I'm stuck at home for next 11 weeks. Plenty of time to work on the bikes, but not getting paid. It's always one, or the other.  |

I honestly havemt had time to look. At the moment every dime I get is going toward the kids and trying to get a car going. Sadly that puts poor little Sketch on the shelf below the back burner....
Our kids that moved out on their own have all three been deemed unessential and well.... Dad steps in to help when I can but damnit. Something has to give. The two that qualify have put in for UE the one that doesn't qualify is a lot like me and is doing whatever odd job he can find, but shits tight.
I cant even get a famn piston kit for the stock Beamer right now. And I damn sure am not cou ting on the stimulus check...

Stimulus check arrived for me today. Of course I have back taxes and house taxes.  I might can help you out with a piston though..i have a stock jog with about 100 miles on it. I don't know if it will fit a beamer but if you can confirm I will pull it apart and ship it to you. If it will not fit maybe they have one on Amazon? Reason I say that as I have some work courses I get 1$ a pop. Send me a pm if you think I can help you out. On top of all this BS I am paying my job back $1500 per month for them over paying me last year. WTF |

BTW, you would happen to have some forks laying around that might fit a jog with provision for caliper?  |

Will "*TRY*" to get my fat arse out to the shop in the next couole days to get some measurements. I really dont think so though. The only disc forks I know i have are Beamer and 86 helix..... Unless I forgot about something.... I have been wondering about my welding skills lately. Think I might practice a bit and then replace the neck on Sketch with the old Helix. I'm probably talking out my ass here though!! Haha lol |

Not really. I've pinned the wires for the most part, relocating everything to under the front fascia, the rest if the bike will be naked. It needs a new jug so this one will have to sit and stagnate for quite a bit. |
