    Harley went hell when they started putting swingarms on their bikes. Damn, that's funny!

    Home is where your heart is, clearly your mother needs you and you have stepped up. Your doing the right thing for you and yours Mr T, we can get caught up in the daily grind so much that we don’t even realise we are not having fun anymore. Life is a race and it’s only one lap, at two thirds into the race I reckon your adjusting your mixture at the right time. All the best KT, and thanks for sharing your head space for a bit there.

    You start that Harley school KT and I’ll be one of your first students, I have learned so much about these older bikes and the science of engine building from just watching your videos, having the opportunity to see it in person and ask questions in real time would be a goldmine.
    Also maybe you’ll need to hire some instructors one day and I’d sure love to help with that.

    You know, back about 4 or 5 years ago, I found Tatro machine. Here was this guy, getting on these people, about their bikes and I thought. Man, what a "horses ass"! But it caught my attention, so I had to come back and see what was really going on. He was on their ass,,,,,,,,,,,,,, for a reason, they seemed to not know anything about their own bikes! This man was teaching these people how to work on their own shit, and they were learning. This was great, Mind you, I'm not a great Harley mechanic, this guy knows more about Harleys than any one I've ever meet. You are doing the right thing moving, getting closer to family and taking care of them, that is great. If you start a "Harley School", any body that gets to learn from you is Blessed. I only hope, you will continue to post it because, it would be a great loss, to all of us out here, who can't go to your school. You are a man with many tricks of the trade and you make it look funny and entertaining to watch. Thank You Sir for doing what you do and keep it up.

    @tobpitbull 3 года назад

    Great to hear you move purposes… great that you will get back into what you love with the racing… in our area one of the great builders with the K’s was Bob Hoh who owned BHE just outside Cincinnati… my father was close with him as a machinist and Harley builder… the memories of going to the shop to just pick up a part, we were told it only be a minute, 4 hours later we were still setting there while they talked, looked over motors…very few have that kind of passion anymore.
    I’d say tatro with your inventory and knowledge you could put together a vintage HD racing collection that would be a great way to honor your family’s business and contribution to the motorcycle enthusiasts.

    It's great to see that you are (simi retiring) I know that part of you hates that thought but after a little while you may like it. Now you can do the things that you want for yourself without worrying about customer projects. I surely hope that you get that school going. It would be a shame to let your wisdom on HD go to waste without sharing it. Maybe at least one of your students can keep it going. I retired a year and a half ago and love it. We all have to relax a little and smell the roses, or exhaust fumes in your case. Later
