All Milwaukee-Eight® engines (Softail and Touring) incorporate balancers to reduce vibration. For just $195, JIMS® has now developed a balancer bearing installer (Part No.5833), which can be used in conjunction with our existing JIMS® balancer bearing remover (Part No.5832), to precisely install these bearings in the proper location for all Milwaukee-Eight® engines. Incorrect installation of these bearings can cause severe damage to the crankcase, or even complete engine failure. The precision machined installer, aligns to the crankcase via case bolt and dowel locations, allowing the technician to install the bearings on a workbench without the use of a driver or press.

Cantina Episode 86: Wim Whatever
Friday Morning Blues

It struck 10:00 in the morning in the Port of Los Angeles and a ship’s air-horn blasted the morning. Immediately the Cantina front door opened, and skinny, downer Clay walked in. He missed the naked Chinese broad tied to the chair, the outlaws, the dead dude and the mountain man, still fuming.

During Demo Days We Reviewed the Twin Engine Enfield

Royal Enfield is on the road promoting their new 650 Twins. They have been around the USA with their demo days trailer and fleet of bikes. Denver was scheduled in June but because of troubles in customs a reschedule was in order. I have been wanting to try a Royal Enfield out for some time. I’m looking for a city bike, fighting traffic in Denver I need something snappy and agile. My Road King is a great bike but it is not light or slippery, so the search continues.

In it’s third year, The Tennessee Motorcycles and Music Revival is a one-of-a-kind experience where folks can hang out with musicians, custom motorcycle builders, and industry leaders. The event is produced and operated by a team of seasoned veterans in both the motorcycle and music industries alongside Miss Loretta Lynn and her family and is hosted on her sprawling ranch property in Hurricane Mills.

To say Loretta Lynn’s ranch is a special place is like saying Tennessee folks are “kind of friendly”. Framed by a rugged ridgeline on one side and the winding hurricane creek on the other, the 3,500-acre property has over 300 powered RV spots, cabins, showers, a concert pavilion, and abundant space for thousands to camp. The ranch has as rich a motocross history as it does musical. While everyone from Conway Twitty to Patsy Cline to Jack White have graced the stage to the lady of the land, Miss Loretta herself, motocross royalty like Travis Pastrana, Ricky Carmichael, and Carey Hart have ridden the tracks out on the ranch. Whether folks want to ride or write, there’s a little bit of magic in it for everyone.

With over twenty live bands, singer-songwriter rounds, Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycle Demos, a Hillbilly Hooligan dirt race track, mini-bike racing, biker games, Wall of Death, specialty food trucks, liquor bars, and vendors, there is something for everyone at Tennessee Motorcycles and Music Revival. With a laid back, backstage vibe, both music and motorcycle fans can spend the weekend steeped in the things they love. Strangers quickly become friends and friends, extended family out at the ranch.  After a full day of races and shows, every night ends in the wee hours down the by the Creekside Waterin’ Hole with a campfire and music for your soul.

One of the premier highlights of TMMR is the BC Moto Invitational, a showcase of 40 custom motorcycles.  Each builder is selected based on raw talent and pure passion and come in from all over the country to showcase their bikes.  The BC Moto Invitational is housed in a creekside horse barn where each custom bike is showcased in a lit horse stall. It is the ultimate showcase of horsepower and an incredible exhibit of raw bona fide craftsmanship.

Privateer John Short Captures Career-Best Finish in the 450 Class

MILLVILLE, Min. (July 23, 2019) – The eighth round of the 2019 Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship kicked off under heavy thunderstorms at Spring Creek Motocross Park for the annual Spring Creek National. Following the morning rain, Pirelli riders opted to run the SCORPION™ MX32™ Mid Soft front and SCORPION™ MX Soft rear tires in both the 250 Class and 450 Class. JGRMX/Yoshimura/Suzuki Factory Racing’s Alex Martin raced to his best finish of the season in front of his home crowd, while TPJ Racing’s John Short earned a career-best result.

As the gate dropped on the opening 250 Class moto, Martin completed the opening lap in third aboard his Suzuki RM-Z250 and set his sights on the riders in front of him. With the 30-minute-plus-two-lap moto winding down, Martin closed in on second, eventually making the pass and holding the position until the checkered flag for his third podium of the season.

At the onset of the 250 Moto 2, Martin launched out of the gate with his SCORPION™ MX tires and narrowly missed out on the holeshot, but was forced off of the track exiting the first turn and rejoined the race just outside of the top five. Martin continued his march towards the front, picking off riders one-by-one until he got into second. At the conclusion of the moto, race officials made the decision to dock Martin a single position for his excursion off of the track in turn one, giving him third in the moto. The 2-3 scores helped Martin capture a season-best second place overall.

“It felt awesome to earn a second place overall finish at my home national here at Spring Creek Motocross Park,” said Martin. “Having the Pirelli SCORPION™ MX Soft rear tire was a big advantage in the sandy, muddy conditions that we faced this weekend. The motos went very well, with two second place finishes. It was unfortunate to get docked a position in the second moto. I’m excited with how things have been progressing.”

In the 450 Class, JGRMX support rider Isaac Teasdale launched out of the gate to take a commanding holeshot in 450 Moto 1.  As the 40-rider field completed the opening lap, Short moved in to third, followed by Teasdale in fourth and JGRMX/Yoshimura/Suzuki Factory Racing’s Freddie Noren in seventh. When the checkered flag waved, Short held on to take sixth, resulting in the best moto finish of his career. Noren was just behind in seventh.

The final 450 moto of the afternoon once again saw Short get off to another strong start in third and Noren in seventh. Short continued his impressive efforts by finishing eighth. Misfortune struck Noren in the middle of the moto as he struck a downed rider on the landing of a jump and crashed. Fortunately, he was able to quickly remount and put in a charge to take a hard-fought 11^th. Short finished a career-best seventh overall (6-8), awarding him top finishing privateer honors on the day. Noren ended the day eighth overall (7-11).

“This weekend was a great confidence builder for me,” said Short. “The two good starts were huge! I’ve never had a top five start at an outdoor national, so I was thrilled to get that experience racing up front in the top three for a little bit. It definitely fires me up and makes me want to keep working hard and improving so that I can continue to move forward!”

The Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship heads to Washougal Motocross Park in Washougal, Washington next Saturday, July 27 for round nine.
