    many moons ago , i had a cb750 with a side car , i installed a elec. motor on the wheel to back up . i used a sears elec. bike kit , sears used sell a motor that went on the front tire of a bike , the rider would flip a lever to lower the elec. motor on the tire , hit the button and take off . it was a small rubber wheel about 1 1/2 die. and 2 in. wide pressed on a small motor. i mounted it behind the side car tire and reversed the wires . anybody remember those sears bike kits ? thom

    you got to think cheap you can get it at the dollor store , Mean green , i use it to clean every thing , old nasty motors , boat motors , my hole bike and my wife uses it to wash my nasty shirts , also if you have a RV it removes the black streaks , if i need to get something realy bad i use orange hand cleaner and a old tooth brush i have something else that works very fast and easy put you will have to pm me or call because i can not put it out on the web or i'll show you at the meet and eat and no it is not illegal

    i am from the old school , i have my 1st bell , the 1 my wive gave me when we bought the bike hanging from my master cylinder for the front brake and the VR bell hangs from the clutch master cylinder , i use them to call my guardian angel to take care of me and keep me safe before i go riding . monks used to make them for travelers that make risky trips in the south west , the 1st time i heard the story it was a cowboy that was throne from his horse and he was praying for help and ringing his guardian bell and some old desert rats heard him and saved him , when i was in the navy i was told the same story but it was a shipped wrecked sailer .

    you must be a old trucker , i have drove just about every way you can get from okie land to here and the fastest way is what missionary rider said , it is the way truckers have been useing for years but if you want to do 80 + most of the way drop down to I-49 to I-20 than us 82 to 271 to 231 than I-10 and make a rite on I-75 .
