  • Pennants Now Available!

    Good day folks! I am proud to unveil the banner for my Cannonball team effort. These are USA made, and measure 9″ X 26″. Material is wool and image is silk screened. These make great items to hang in your garage or gifts for the motorcycle enthusiast. I am selling these as a way to raise funds for the September 2018 event. Price is $20 plus shipping.

    The names on the pennant includes the members of Team Effort; Brent Thompson, Dennis Worthy, Dan Rognsvoog, and myself.

  • Work continues!

    It’s been a while but wanted to let you all know we are working on engine #2. All going great. Here is a little work on removing the breather tube.

    Over and out for now.

  • Engine Pulley

    Time to work on the spare engine pulley. First to remove the fabric lagging.

    Held in with bent over nails!

    Over and out for now.

  • Flywheel True?

    Checking flywheels for the second engine. Looks good but we will still disassemble to connecting rod.

  • Next engine

    Started working on the second engine today. Came apart with the help of propane and Kroil. 





    Next is to clean it all up and check for shaft/bushing tolerances. 

  • Always Made/Make/Makes Good

    Looks like Excelsior had three versions of this slogan. Still contemplating the cannonball team name.
