Buzz W. :) HONDA SUPER HAWK OWNERS MUFFLERS At the AMA VMD event, I met Tim McDowell of “Classic Honda Restoration”, and the subject of the reproduction stock CB72 / CB 77 mufflers from “Musket Mufflers”, of New Zealand came up. Tim said that he was the importer for them , and that he had quite a few sets in stock. I saw a set, and Tim said that these were not ground quite enough at a weld, and we being sold at a better price, and that they would be changed in future shipments. Also planned are CL 72 / CL 77 straight pipes, and the 2-muffler canister slip on too. You can reach Tim for details at:: tim @classichondarestoration.com Mailing address is : 7035 Kit Kat Road, Elkridge, MD 21075 DVD REVIEW - I WAS A MALE WAR BRIDE (1941) THE BUZZ 1974 HONDA CB 550F TURBO Again, while at the AMA VMD event, Nathan Hunter of Meadville, Pennsylvania stopped me and asked if I had ever seen or read about a CB 550-F with a turbo conversion kit. I looked it over and it looked very professional, but no. . . I had not seen this before. If any readers are familiar with this, and know of the history. . . Nathan would be pleased to hear from you at 814 / 720 - 6664 CRAIG VETTER IS AT IT AGAIN. . . Craig showed up in his 18-hp scooter, draped with aerodynamic designs, all the way from Indiana to Mid-Ohio in his determined quest to make a 100 MPG 2-wheeled cycle that can attain that at a 70-MPH speed. This model with CAD ( Cardboard Aided Design ), would then be making the return ride to Indiana in a day or so. I’m sure that Craig will accomplish whatever he sets his mind to a task and challenge. At one time in the mid-1980’s, he sponsored the Craig Vetter Fuel Economy Runs, and has a small engine to propel an egg-shaped cycle to an astounding 470-MPG, under special driving , coasting conditions at lower speeds. A couple of years ago I mentioned this old, motorcycle comedy. Well I just found it at www.amazon.com, in DVD format. They has about 62-used ones, and new copies were available too. This is Cary Grant at his best, and with Ann Sheridan. They have a captured German BMW R75M and it is a major focal point throughout the movie. . . Ann Sheridan is the driver ! I would give this a 5-star recommendation. The used DVD’s are about $ 7.00 I thought this photo was pretty clever. . . with a 1973 Triumph X75 Hurricane in the foreground.
