teddy landers has a complete 73 racer. very race worthy. he's in missouri. +14172746126

a sad day. RIP John Penton. you'll be truly missed. you changed the world of motorcycling.

hi all. does anyone have a suggestion on possibly using an automotive cv joint boot between the carb and the fiberglass airbox? putting a mikuni on a 400. i can stretch the small end of the stock boot to fit over the carb but i don't think it flows air well. the waffles of the boot get scrunched up restricting the airflow. so im hoping that someone has found a cv joint boot that works better.  chicago jerry

you can take this to the bank, yes, the 74 1/2 mint 400 is vintage ahrma vintage legal. it's what i race in ahrma vintage classes. and i'm on one of the ahrma rule committees chicago herry

hi all. does anyone have a well setup lectron for a 78 400 that you could share info on? model of lectron, metering rod # etc?

thanks gary. is the hpi the same as the old pvl's?

a quick question. what's the consensus of racers on which ignition (no, not motoplats's)pvl, vape etc. i've personally had good luck with my  weighted pvl. a good friend who's  pretty fast is building a racer, no lights needed. i'm looking for the best recommendation. what say you, gary ellis?

the exhaust manifolds are different but not easy to discern. though the exhaust output tube is the same dimension and orientation, as well as the overall appearance including bolt pattern, the differnce lies in the opening in the cast manifold itself is larger on the 175 than on the 125. you have to have them side by side to see it. pretty sure the 175 exhaust manifold would work on the 125, but not vice versa.
