Damn.... and I thought I was the only guy left in the world spinnin' an Atlas with babbets in the headstock...I turned a 530 sprocket into a 520 sprocket to get ready for the new primary gears. Going to be geared 18/44 with the high ratio set up.

Well shoot... now I'm just envious....No babbets in mine. It has the timken tapered rollers. Best $500 I ever spent.

Remember awhile back I picked up this for $50 well, attempts to title it in either OR or WA was such a pita that I ended up giving the frame to a XS chopper guy back in Oregon.
Wheels, Forks, and a couple gizmos were sold so this pile turned into $$$100’s profit
Now, all I have is that 81 engine which is becoming a trove of nice spare parts. This Is Fun ! Top End only so far-
Careful.....this is how it begins. Next thing you know , you’ve got a barn full of old motorcycles!
Thanks Bob. So do I roll out the packing then wrap it around the threads like tape?
