    My Thinga-Ma-Bob CTX trike is available again.

    Okay folks everybody gets another chance! I've decided once again to offer my "famous" one-of-a-kind CTX trike for sale. Some of you will remember that I suspended my first attempt last fall, when I decided to keep it and do some make-overs so it would look like the vintage Indian I've wanted...

    Seat swap possible

    I just bought an almost perfect seat off of a 2016 bike that only had 750 miles of use. Since I'm going to strip the seat down to the pan, before I do that I wanted to offer a deal to someone who wants to sit a little closer to the tank (since the 2016 has the seat cut closer to the front). Or...

    My new Russell Daylong arrived!

    On Monday, I got back from our great, 10 day trip to Maggie Valley, NC, and was greeted by my Russell Daylong (RDL) custom seat conversion that arrived last Friday. The box was in great condition and the packing job was first class. The seat & two back rests were all in perfect condition...

    Opinions needed

    I have decided to replace my expensive custom Corbin low profile seat. I'm likely going with an even more expensive Russell Day-Long conversion of the OEM seat pan I just bought via eBay. It kinda breaks my heart to lose my nicely matched snake skin seat. It goes so great with my blue metal...

    Anyone have Vertigo??

    On Friday, I spent 10 hours in the local Hospital Trauma Center. When I awoke at my usual 5:00am, I was exhibiting symptoms of a possible posterior stroke. Among other symptoms, I was extremely dizzy and was having waves of nausea. I called my primary doctor and was told to come in right away...

    DISCLAIMER: The modifications I made to the Fehling bars outlined below negate the original purpose of the product. These bars are intended to protect the engine (and possibly the rider). Inasmuch as my bike is now a trike, the rear wheels keep the bars from ever scraping on the ground and...

    Thinga-ma-Bob II, a CTX700 trike conversion using a Yelvington Designs CTX kit

    History and background discussion "catch up": At age 73, I think that I have finally passed the point where my oft cited claim that "most people my age are dead already" is no longer a joke! But in any case, I'm glad to be signing on here to move over some of the narrative on my now finished...

    Merry Christmas!! Happy Hanukkah!!

    Both myself and my wife of 49 years are former USAF officers. That means our service was back to the Viet Nam era. In fact, during our first year of marriage I was in combat (I had 1025 combat hours in 100 missions in an EC-121R flying out of Korat Thailand). I spent our first Christmas in...
