The 59 Clubs Motorcyclists Prayer



Father Bill Shergold and the 59 Club

Wow and that was in 59! With traffic the way it is now we need this even more now




Father Bill Shergold said he tried to instill in the members of the 59 Club that they were the Knights of the road and should behave in a chivalrous manner.

I lived in the UK for years and I can tell you that there is a very strong brotherhood of two wheels, Bikers and Scooterist are always willing to stop and help no matter where or what the weather. I think that all started with this unusual man.

Warm Weather at Last. Kickstarter, 1975 XLCH 1000 Sportster, It just had to happen "!6&$)(*~@?"

  First day here in Ireland that it has been warm enough to get into the workshop without tools sticking to my hands. The main focus is now on getting the Engine Running. I need to wire the electrics fit the Coils. Generator and Regulator. Plumb the oil lines and set up a fuel supply.



  Today was Exhausts and Kick starter. I finally got the two blots to secure the kicker/Sprocket cover plate fitted the exhausts, I still need to tie down the end of each to the frame.
Put the Kick start Spring on and the Kick start Pedal then one kick and 





   I got on to Fleabay there were two for sale and ordered a new one, from these guys, as usual with everything for me Ironhead the shipping costs more then the part :(



At least I can get on with the rest of the list ;)
