Sucks, they don't make a visor for the T34. Thinking of ordering one and see how it looks anyways. Those red lines are nice, might have to keep em' and put them on the rims I have. I don't need a purist telling me those are for a bug, not a T34. :redguy: :redguy:

Thinking of going a click lower in the front, whatcha think? Or leave it?

He bought RedJames tires off me. I think they're 135's in front and 185's in back.

Well, Krusty's tranny finally took a dump!!! Bummer!!! Driving home from the show yesterday I lost all gears minus 3rd, luckily we were close to the house. When I started to pull him into the garage it smelled as if was burning. Motor checked out, nothing there. Advice? Comments? I'm gonna check the linkage again for the gears, check the gear oil. If not I guess pull it and see what's going on. Sucks!!! Was running like a top, more to come.

Nope checked it and it had, didn't get around to changing it. I will try to get under it in the next couple of days, I am hoping I lost gears because the linkage slipped off. Doesn't explain the burning smell, could that be the clutch? Since I was riding it to get where I needed?
