    cr250 hotsaw

    Stihl around, just a bit busy ALL of the time these days so I post very little. There are pics for a bunch of saws I built here: http://www.arboristsite.com/saw-building-101/109980-2.htm But Cahoon pretty much covered what you needed to know, and he has built a few more bikes than I have.

    Is there a National (U.S.) organization that does this?

    Yup Home Page or here http://www.americanlumberjacks.com/ Most competitions are on their own, but the rules stay pretty standard. I know there are quite a few in your direction.

    Bizarre use of a chainsaw?

    You will have transfer ports and the exh and intake ports in the cylinders, windowed pistons, and no oil rings. So being that you want to convert to 4 stroke knocks those cylinder heads out of your choices. As for the 450 F's the other guys are using, that is the best choice for a small 4...

    Bike saw talk

    Did you get it from Mike Koers? The was originally a Harry Boedecker built saw. Probably one of the first bike saws out there. All I did to it was the top handle and back handle, the original setup was pretty well worn. Here is what it looked like before I did the work for Mike, it was...

    Race chain

    Hey Andy, here is what Ive learned. I am going to drop off the bikesaw chain that I used to run (and Jay train wrecked) so you can copy it exactly and make us a pair of new ones. My latest chain that I filed was quick, but it didn't feel right like the old one did. No chain I have run on it...

    lets see them motorcycles

    I built the motor and drive unit, wrapped it up, and stuffed it in the shed. It was going to go into this ride but I sort of lost interest in it for now. I will probably build that one out next winter.

    lets see them motorcycles

    Haven't been on this forum in a while, I have just been busy as H this winter. Here is one I just finished chopping up, a 1974 CB360. Starting on a XS650 tomorrow. Lumberjacks got poor over the last year so I had to expand my side business.

    the man caves (or sheds)

    She is great, she doesn't mind as long as she doesn't stub her toe on a project and I keep the area clean. I do the cleaning, machining, and welding out side, in the warm months I do the assembly work outside too but it has been cooling off and getting dark early. Right now I am building a...

    the man caves (or sheds)

    I just have a series of "man huts" instead of a nice big cave. Two sheds and a covered back porch. Allot of my work moves inside the house which my wife LOVES! I am jealous of you other folks.

    272 coil conversion to Dolmar 7900

    Squint real hard brad, that is the one you want. The other coil also works but you need a longer coil wire.

    Husqvarna 1100CD 2100CD Ignition Interchange?

    Yes,,,,,but no. The 1100 has a bosch ign while the 2100 has an SEM. You can do it but you also need to change the flywheel and starter to make it work.

    Solo 681 vs Dolmar 7900 - VIDEO

    I have built a few mods, I was also very fortunate to get to be one of the first guys to butcher a 680 when they first came out. I have nothing against saw modding for cash or the folks who are doing it. I decided a while back that if I build a saw for bucks it will be a bikesaw only, my...
