Today I met a fellow member and a nice guy (Layspowersports) to do some trading. This trade included me handing off a tri z roller with some spare parts that I had laying around. I cant wait to get to tinkering with the 70 tomorrow for the little man to ride.

Very cool... (frame is bent on the 70... ((just like mine))

[jfaulkner02]

Yeah, so tell me......is the frame un-bendable or still ok to ride with?

[tblumer]

bottle jack and a strategically placed 2x4 will straighten that frame, easy fix

I just trimmed my fender till the snow flies... Then there will be a bottle jack in my 70's future as well... (I still ride it)

[jfaulkner02]

Icic....im just gonna get the 70 going for my son and let him ride it for a while before i think about fixing the frame.

[tblumer]

Well the frame is actually only bent a hair. Got to looking at it yesterday evening and noticed that that top mounting bolt for the engine is gone making the motor hang down about an inch. Once I got the engine in place I checked it out again and the fender rubs just a hair. Now that ai can see how this is done, I will attempt the bottle jack job. Thanks.
