GIRO DEI TRE LAGHI (A MODO MIO) - THREE LAKES RUN (MY WAY)
Il prossimo giro sarà Domenica 25 Aprile. Tenetevi pronti che sarà il giro ufficiale Crazyoils.
-
Ok I admit it. This is too long to be translated. So I'll just tell you that last Sunday I had this great ride with a friend of mine, Ale and his Nightster. He follows me on these crazy trips that I try to do every now and then. This time I took the occasion of the H-D Open Day to ride to Verona to say hello to my old friends and see the Verona Chapter Italy leave for a Spring Run. We did not want to spend half of the beautiful sunny day in line with another 120 bikes, so we waved goodbye and left for our own run. We went up all the way along the Garda Lake and then up on the mountains to pass the small Tenno Lake. There was a Ferrary reunion so we went on to the next lake, Idro Lake. Finally we rode over one more pass to another valley and then back home with an amazing sunset. What a great day! What a great ride! 444 kilometers and this is only the beginning of the season.
Book yourself for April 25th for the official Crazyoils Run!

SOTTOSELLA - UNDER SEAT COVER
Un paio di sottosella per una Sportster e per una Dyna ai quali sto lavorando. Sono in griglia metallica a fori e quadrifogli sagomata, verniciata e bordata con una guarnizione in gomma.
A presto anche i relativi attacchi.

These are two under seat covers that I'm building for a Sportster and a Dyna. They are made out of a steel plate with holes and clovers, molded, paited and refined with a U-shaped rubber gasket. Soon the pics of the brackets.

SIDE MOUNTED SPEEDOMETER
Questo è un altro piccolo dettaglio che ho aggiunto per coprire le spie di un portastrumento laterale creato tempo fa. Mi diverto a ricercare e plasmare nuovi materiali.
-
This is another little detail that I added to a side mounted speedo that I created a while ago. It's to cover part of the wiring. Just having some fun and molding new materials.
SPEEDOMETER BRACKET - PORTASTRUMENTO
Questo è il portastrumento laterale completato e verniciato creato da zero che vi avevo anticipato qualche giorno fa.
-
This is the handmade side speedo bracket that I posted a few days ago. Now it's finished and painted.

FLHRS & DISCACCIATI
Due piccoli lavoretti alla FLHRS di un amico. Dischi flottanti Discacciati e riposizionamento targa originale H-D. Nulla di tanto speciale ma, vi dirò, non ci sono tante Road King Custom bianche in giro e con questi dischi la frenata è notevolmente migliorata ed è un piacere andarci a spasso.
-
Two little things for a friend's FLHRS. Discacciati floating rotors and original H-D relocation licence plate kit. Not that much actually, but there aren't many white Road King Customs around and this one breakes greatly and it's a pleasure to ride.

Ho sempre pensato che le zip sono una grande invenzione!

DISCACCIATI FLOATING ROTORS
Arrivati ieri e domani li monto. Grandissima qualità del Made in Italy. Per anni li ho consigliati, insieme a bellissime pinze cromate, quando lavoravo in una concessionaria H-D . Ora finalmente posso avere lil piacere di montarli di persona. Presto anche sul mio Sportsterino. Andate a vedervi il sito Discacciati.
-
They got in yesterday and I'm going to install them tomorrow. The best quality Made in Italy. I suggested them for years, together with beautifully chromed brake calipers, when I used to work in a official H-D dealership. Now I have a chance to install them by myself. Soon on my Sporty as well. Go and check the Discacciati web site.
HARLEY-DAVIDSON ARCHIVE COLLECTION 1960-2010
Arrivato oggi insieme a Vibes e Biker Mon, questo nuovissimo ed interessantissimo libro giapponese che raccoglie tutti i modelli prodotti da mamma H-D dal 1960 al 2010. E' come avere in un colpo solo 50 anni di cataloghi Harley. Incredibile. Più tante foto storiche ed inedite. Da avere! Chiedetemi come. Unico neo, è scritto in giapponese ma ne vale comunque la pena.
-
This book arrived today together with Vibes and Biker Mon. It is an amazing collection of all the models produced by H-D from 1960 to 2010. It's like having 50 years of catalogs in one time all together. Unbelievable! Plus lots of unseen pics and details. A must to have in your collection. Just ask me if you want it. The only problem is that it's all written in Japanese but who cares? It's still worth it every penny.
