hey bri.....i never thought i could own a tiquey cycle but something i find to be true is that if you want anything bad enough.......you can make it happen.......my number one chum once told me "if the stuff you want costs alot of money then just make alot of money"

thanks as far as the motor goes im building a tandem pacer........the kneejerk reaction is to build it up as a orient but thats been done too many times in my opinion.......also motorpacing especially the earliest versions have a much less seen/heard of historical importance.......while the waltham/orient may be the first production american motorcycle its the motor pacer that paved the way for what became the motorcycle
