    I'll be at tower park for sure. It's worth the trip and I've done it from temecula before so you can too.

    Winch question

    Drop the winch driveshaft and try to turn each end without the shaft in place. If they both spin freely, you probably have an issue with "load" on the gears.

    Head stud issues

    Yep, it's leaching up the threads! Sounds like the easiest fix is thread sealant. Take one at a time out, seal it, and re-install and re-torque. Make sure it cures up well before firing her up.

    According to my research, here is a picture of NZ Army riders, in France, riding Indian 741B motorcycles. Maybe one if these is actually my bike :wink:

    The Indian story This 1941 Indian was quite the project. I found it, completely civilianzed and in pretty poor shape (ran when parked???). The guy I bought it from said his dead business partner brought it back from New Zealand. I did a serial number search and the bike's serial number...

    What are the current prices on LDT-465-1D rebuilt in crate

    I recently acquired a rebuilt one "sealed in the container" and paid way more then expected. I could have bought a complete truck. None the less, it's what I wanted to do.
