this is his shop where all your bling parts are made. the one pic is his old tri-z that burned in a garage fire, as well as those cylinders.

Well, I'm glad it went to another member. I'm sad that Ronnie had to let it go.... You can see that even as he's selling it he's tinkering with something on the bars there. I hope he has something even bigger and badder for us!!

Enjoy your INSECT!!!!!

EDIT - whats up with the melted heads?? I hope he didn't have a fire in the past......

this is a 86 6 speed in the crate. it has 5000 miles on it, and has never been started?!?!?! been all over the us, now its here in va. we will nick-name it the "c" motor.named after craig,(mwke) ronnie started to built it over three years ago,craig parted his tri-z, ronnie bought the motor from craig, then me. i am going to place it in the black z i have, and try it out
a few bling kits for the z and 250r, sounds lile this might been the last of them. marvin shaw coil over, oem shock, 250r thumber, a few goodies
the bolts on the shirt are 110 stainless spares for the bolt tires that went with the bike

you would never think to EVER see it sit in the snow...with its TWIN brother!!!
taller haulers and bolt tires, the red thingy is the stand that keeps the rear tires from touching the ground and making flat spots, he made a black one like for the other z in the pic.great for lubing the chain too!!;)
i have not started or even rode it yet, nor sat on it since buying!!

Is this an end of an era? Is Ronnie going to continue his service? Does he have another project in the works?

Hey, is he making those Z clutch baskets some folks put money down on last year?:w00t:

What is your problem? You know very well that I was building the clutch baskets. You have been in my clutch basket thread off and on all year. I see you pretty much have the same thing to say in 3wheeler.org.....

"Hey, is he making those clutch baskets that some folks put deposits on back in June or so of last year?" (goodkarma)

mike , think that might be cory sprock,i may be wrong though, but you might talk to both to see which person is doing what (Nathan)

Yep, it was Sprock, but I was hoping maybe he outsourced the work to get it done a little quicker.....................................wishfu l thinking, I guess (goodkarma)

You said it on .org, now you are saying it on .com.
Why are you trying to make me look bad? If I am not mistaken, don't you owe people parts that are over a year overdue? Those guys are not out making rude comments about you taking forever with their parts.

Check your paypal account, not only did I refund your prepay, but I sent some extra to cover your interest and paypal fees. By the way.... the clutch baskets are done and ready to ship.
