Thank you for the details.
I am adding an overdrive and air conditioning for even more decadence.Good to see you back and glad you are feeling better.
Your new toy seems much more practical than mine. I dragged home a 48 Corn Binder and the pucker factor increases significantly at anything over 80kmh, whereas you can cruise in luxury.
I think I mentioned that I contacted Grant Budd, the original owner of Prairie Motorcycles, who sold our machines in the 40’s. He was in his nineties at the time. I had a long phone conversation with him and he later sent me a letter. I think I will put it as a scanned copy on the forum soon but send me your mailing address by PM and I will mail you the original now that I don’t own mine. You seem to keep and care for this stuff that may have little value to others.PS, that B looks pretty clean. You must have cured all of the oozing. Maybe I mentioned it, but… I did contact the original selling dealer to see if they still had any of the paperwork on the two bikes, but apparently everything was destroyed in a fire. I used one of the original cylinders on the Comet and the muff is like a sponge.
