What's New On The Market

playing kid songs for probably the past hour, Slink knew but he also didn’t seem to care. Both Steve and Slink refused to catch a sneak peek at what was happening on my end, I was honored by their blind faith, but if I was going the wrong way, it was too late now. About three quarters through my project Sarah, Steve’s wife, and Slink’s daughter showed up and gave me her approval. She was dropping off her 46 Knuckle frame she’d had repaired at 47 Industries. She aims to have a Flathead in it and ready to race by 2019’s Race of Gentlemen. This, by all definitions is a motorcycle family. With Sarah’s stamp of approval, I allowed myself to finish up with without lingering doubt, at this point if Steve didn’t approve I could just throw his wife under the bus with me (yeah, I’m that guy).

There were no worries, in the end, Steve was either overjoyed, drunk or a phenomenal liar. I set out to not stand out, and the bike kept its class. I think it is absolutely necessary to spend time breathing in the dust of a garage, taking in stories, and creating. Maybe I just forgot being caught up in my own little world. Steve said that he couldn’t thank me enough, but in the end, I should be thanking them.

S&S 4” Big Bore Kit S&S’s 100”/110” big bore kit has just undergone a total redesign and is better than ever. Inspired by their Pro Stock Drag Race engines, the updated big bore kit utilizes a Ductile Cast Iron liner wrapped in cast aluminum for optimum thermal conductivity and performance. 1999-2006 Twin Cam 88® engines roll up to 100ci, and 2007-17 Dyna/Softail and 2007-16 Touring become 110ci monsters! No machining necessary and install can be done with engine still in the bike. Kit works well with stock cylinder heads, or let S&S CNC port those heads for even more power. At 10.5:1 compression it makes for a very streetable and dependable engine that also responds well to performance cams. https://www.sscycle.com/4-inch-big-bore/ Polished FAT Handlebar Riser Extension Kits

One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her small boy into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, “Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?” The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. “I can’t dear,” she said. “I have to sleep in Daddy’s room.” A long silence was broken at last by a shaken little voice saying, “The big sissy.”

It was a hot Saturday evening in the summer of 1958 and Fred had a date with Peggy Sue. He arrived at her house and rang the bell. “Oh, come on in!” Peggy Sue’s mother said as she welcomed Fred in. “So, what are you and Peggy planning to do tonight?” she asked. “Oh, probably catch a movie, and then maybe grab a bite to eat at the malt shop, maybe take a walk on the beach...” “Peggy likes to screw, you know,” Mom informed him. “Is that so?” asked Fred, incredulous. “Yes,” said the mother. “As a matter of fact, she’d screw all night if we let her!” “Well, thanks for the tip,” Fred said as he began thinking about alternate plans for the evening. “Have fun, kids,” the mother said as they left. Half an hour later, a completely disheveled Peggy Sue burst into the house and slammed the front door behind her. “The TWIST, Mom, The TWIST!” she angrily yelled at her mother. “THE DAMN DANCE IS CALLED THE TWIST!!!”

Shelly

While her husband was at work, a blonde decided to paint their living room. After her husband arrives home, he finds his wife lying on the floor in a pool of sweat while wearing a parka and a mink. He asked her what she was doing. She said, “I wanted to prove to you that not all blonde women are dumb, and I wanted to do it by painting the living room.” He says that he was impressed at the good job she had done, but asked, “Why are you wearing two coats? She replied, “I read the directions on the paint can, and they said, ‘’For best results, put on two coats!”

Ateacher was teaching her second-grade class about the government, so for homework, she told her students to ask their parents what the government is. When Little Johnny got home, he went up to his dad and ask his what the government was. His dad thought for a while and answered, ‘’Look at it this way: I’m the president, your mom is Congress, the maid is the work force, you are the people and your baby brother is the future.’’ ‘’I still don’t get it’’ responded the Little Johnny. ‘’Why don’t you sleep on it and maybe you’ll understand it better in the morning,’’ said the dad. ‘’Okay then...good night’’ and Little Jonny went off to bed. In the middle of the night, Little Johnny was awakened by his baby brother’s crying. He went to his crib and found that he had taken a crap in his diaper. So Little Johnny went to his parent’s room to get help. When he got to their bedroom, he looked through the keyhole to if they were asleep. Through the keyhole he saw his mom loudly snoring, but his dad wasn’t there. So, he went to the maid’s room and looked through the maid’s room keyhole, he saw his dad having sex with his maid. Little Johnny was surprised, but then he just realized something and thinks aloud, ‘’OH!! Now I understand the government! The President is screwing the work force, Congress is fast asleep, nobody cares about the people, and the future is full of shit!’’

Acollege math professor and his wife are both 60 years old. One evening the wife comes home and finds a note from her husband that says, “My dear, now that you are 60 years old, there are some things you no longer do for me. I am at the Holiday Inn with my 20-year-old student. Don’t bother waiting up for me.” He returns home late that night to find a note from his wife: “You, my dear, are also 60 years old and there are also things I need that you’re not giving me. So, I am at the Motel 6 with one of your 20-year-old students. Being a math professor, I’m sure you know that 20 goes into 60 way more than 60 goes into 20. So, don’t you wait up for me.”
