BornFREE Five

Thanks to those who stopped by the booth to purchase or just to say hi, its nice to put a handshake and a face to these internet and instagram relations. A couple of builder bikes had our parts on them this year which is always a high point for us parts builders.

New part

Here is a sweet new part weve got in the works. Its a front pulley cover for your open belt cone motor. The neat thing about this is that its an inner and outer cover. Fits all shovel motors from 70 to 83 and early Evos. We will have some to look at At BORN FREE 5.

 

Get pegged.

Weve been at these for a while now trying to get them just rite. Were satisfied enough now to begin selling them. Hope you like them as much as we do.

What can be done

With dedication.

I was looking through the pics from the sparetime Japan blog of the mooneyes show like I have been for years and came across a couple of bikes with our Rockerboxes on them. We are stoked to say the least.

Every little part counts

Shifty

Get em while there HOT!!

We got plenty of boxes in stock.

On the cover

 We are pretty stoked for Brian Elliot. He bought one of the first sets we had done back in March. Told us he was building a bike for the Smokeout probuildoff and as it turned out he took home top prize. Good for him, it looks like he put a shit load of hours into Wenona and it paid off. He can build you a bike as well. He can be contacted at: http://blacksunshinecustoms.yolasite.com/

ONE THING THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEARED UP about the article is this. It says the boxes came from THROWBACK MC.  There is a motorcycle club that hails from the Grass Valley area of Norcal that goes by the name of THROWBACKS MC. This has NEVER been related to our company"THROWBACK MC PARTS" in any way shape or form. With all due respect to the Throwbacks MC. Just wanted to clear the air on that. WE ARE NOT A Club we are a motorcycle parts company.

Congrats again to Brian.

Fix those worn out rocker arms

 You know how almost every rocker arm you ever get used kinda looks like this, not that they dont still work this way but We decided to do something about it.

 So we bult this fixture you see here.

 Then built an arbor on the lathe to spin a grinding wheel with.

After a quick polish they are looking better than new and we saved some scratch to.
We may offer this service when these get properly road tested.
