Sad news, I was hopeful that I could get Pete and his old steed back together for a reunion.
RIP Pete! Godspeed.

Cal she is ready to go, I will wait until spring now to get her running and hopefully fit a little test.

Thanks to a good friend of Pete’s I received some photos of Reno working on the Tt, not sure what track or when.

Well it’s been awhile since I posted an update.
Double checked timing and pickup connections, good spark, fresh fuel and battery charged ready to start up!
Hopefully tomorrow is the day

Good luck.......the sweet sound of a straight head pantah.....there just isnt much that makes a better noise. Hopefully the neighbors dont mind if you shake their windows and set off the car alarms :-)

No noise and no joy today!
Starter sprag is toast!

I feel your pain. Last year I installed a hub on an engine with what appeared to be a new sprague. It was, but it was installed backwards. Only after I had closed things up did I catch it. Simple reversal of the sprague after another dis-assembly of everything on the left side. Never enough laughs. MikeV

Mike, hopefully I don’t do that when I get the new one!

A beautiful fall day today so I thought I would take advantage of the weather
It’s been a long time coming.
The Tt started up this afternoon and ran, nee to fix a leak on one oil line to the vertical head.
Man does she like fuel!!
