Do you know the total length you need?
Tom
I don't know the exact length without taking the existing chain off. I can check tomorrow and let you know a more exact link amount. Thanks !

Otherwise, I'll bring a chain breaker...

My friends magneto just went out, does any body have an extra working one that you can bring ? I'm trying Dax but he hasn't answered since this morning. Please let me know, otherwise I'll be a lone rider for this one.

Andy, I'm a pretty fair mechanic but I don't mess with garage door springs. I saw a 5/8" winding tool embedded in a concrete floor one time and I've never screwed around with them since. For a few dollars let a garage door mechanic change the spring. They're nothing to play with; potentially lethal :( Some things are better left to the people who do it for a living.

VOIP has been up and down all day. Seems ok for now. I would throw a GT50 motor together from spare parts and ride except I have no more Carbs. Sold all my RT carbs.. Sold the last one to Tom.. So.. I am stuck with no carb. I will try a NT carb on a GT50 and see if it works out. I have plenty of those carbs. This should be intresting... If I can get one to work, and work permitting, I will be there...

You can have that carb but you'll have to pay me for the polish job I did on it. I haven't installed it yet but I did do a re-jet and it's ready (and pretty). Let me know. :)

Thanks Tom.. I found 2 old 13mm Cagllari carbs. I should be able to get one going from the Two.. Thanks for the Offer on that 15mm RT. Sounds tempting.. But.. I think I will be able to get er going with these old 13's. I think now my problem will be getting away from work long enough to ride.. I will try to wrap up everything I can tomorrow and see.. I have got in on the tail end of this thread and Denver II ride.. Is the meet the same time same place as Denver Ride 1 ?

Yep, same time, same place. Berkley Park Rec Center, next door to Lakeside Amusement Park. 11:Am. Look for weird bicycles that make noise. :)
See you there or stop by. I plan to leave here about 9:45/10:00.

Ok.. Thanks Tom. I will get after it early tomorrow so I can ride.. They are talking 70 degrees partly sunny.. It is sounding pretty good for SAT..
That will be good, I gotta go get that magneto from you tomorrow so my friend isn't left out. My bike is good to go, I just need a chain from Tom...

ok.. I am out of gas.. .It has been a long day.. I will finish throwing a motor on this New Roller I got from WalMart for 69 bucks. Bike looks pretty good except for the pedals and no front brake. I have a caliper and some other pedals laying around. Over all , the bike looks great and welds are fair looking. Bike is all Aluminum. The engine I am throwing together from scrap parts is not the best specimen, but all that I have. The block has 3 stripped cylinder holes that I will have to back with nuts, Crank has a bolt broken off in it, but I have a 360 crank I can swap in. Rope start hole also stripped. I will back it with a nut too. So.. I have all the parts and should have it together and running in the hour. It will be fun seeing how a rear mount will do on this Roller from WalMart. It has potential for sure. It is a stretched frame like the Electra, which I like. I love the extra room. So.. If I get after it, and work permitting, I will make the meet tomorrow.

Steam,
We meet in the Berkley Park rec center parking lot. Easy to find, just listen for a bunch of noisy bicycles :) South side of I-70 and Sheridan, just a block or so east of Lakeside Amusement park.
See ya'll there.
