Thanks to Tony we will be heading out on the highway and looking for adventure with some super sweet regulators and rectifiers. He was even kind enough to take the time to explain what the heck rectifiers are rectifying and regulators regulating. If you haven’t heard of Tony’s work you should check him out www.oregonmotorcycleparts.com. All his stuff comes with lifetime guarantees.

A big shout out to Jimmy and the crew at Beulahland for once again supporting the 555!!!

Beulahland will be hosting a 555 Benefit Party on May 28th. Come on down (118 NE 28th) and check out some of the machines that will be making the journey back east. Things will get started at around 8:00pm. Hope to see you there!!

While a lot of people talk about keeping Portland weird, Jimmy actively makes it weird. Thanks Beulahland!!!
