RIP 70Moto...

70Moto is no more...sigh. But, we now have OldeMoto to carry the torch. Chris and Matt already have great projects in the works, while I catch up on episodes of Game of Thrones. But, my '51 is in need of some loving touches and I plan on touching it...a lot...soon. Here's to fire and fuel and all the things we love to create with it.

Good wheel bearing vs bad...

Guess my wheel guts need some attention since this is what happened
to my bearings on the freeway the other night...

Tucked the oil filter in down low. Really dig this little filter. #oldemoto by 70moto
