Gas tank sticker
« on: August 26, 2012, 03:13:08 PM »
I was looking at some stuff on ebay and was curious to know if anyone has any info on the sticker/decal on the gas tank for sale?
Was it a dealer item?

That's a new one on me Paul, I've never seen it before.  ???

Here's a picture of it so when the auction's over, future visitors to this thread will know what we're talking about.

The description says it's off of a Honda 1966 Bridgestone so it probably was just applied to those unique bikes. :D

The stickers were in the back of the "Hints from the Hip" books.

Hey, good job James! Good code too. I've always practiced at least three of those.

Ran great as long as you kept the rpm's up. Worked real good on the ice because of the wheel spin. My Dad had a home made dyno. There was a lot of experimenting going on. Some good and some not so much  :-\ . I still remember how much the rpm's jumped just by oiling the chain.
