Are you tired of scraping those old scrambled ,eggs,
off your morning pistons. These things lubricate so
well that you won't ever have to save bacon grease
again. Through a new Teflon anodization process
such an incredible hardness is achieved that worries
about scraping your pistons with your sptachela, your
hammer, or even a cylinder are gone. H.J. Products,
Box 225, South Bend, Ind., 46615, will supply you
with these nifty new utensils, or will treat brand new
ones that you supply them with their Nituff process.
Don't throwaway that scouring pad yet cause it's
two weeks for delivery.

Just like the one that got away, we're always
trying to relive those head-over-heels moments. Now
you don't have to miss it at all. Relive those moments
when you had to close your eyes. With the POV
Helmet Camera you can capture them for you and
yours. The unit will be available for about two
hundred dollars and all you have to do is add your
camera. That's a far cry from what you could get one
made for. Mort: information from: J'OV, 3518

So You Think Your Thumper Has Torque
Take the Shock Out, to Keep It In
1f it hasn't rt:minded you lately, that little canister
which makes six Or twelve volts into 30,000 may not
be too happy about its environs. Coils suffer from
both the jars you deliver on your dirty bike and the
vibration that the engine delivers on any bike. This
From Environmental Lubricants we now have a
possibility to "participate in the national
anti-pollution campaign." They offer a new line of
synthetic oils called Analube. The basic ingredient of
Analube is polyglycol a compound commonly used in
Hgreaseless" cosmetics and hair conditioners. The
special redeeming characteristic of polyglycol is that
it is completely biodegradable, dissolves in water, and
leaves no residue on combustion. Analube "maintains
its viscosity over a wide range of temperatures (stays
thick when it's hot, thin when it's cold).
We took some of the stuff and chucked it into one
of our-test bikes. Suprise, it really works. We mixed it
in with another well known syn thetic lubrican t and
the transition caused no problems. As the Analube
began to wind its way down the oil lines, smoking
actually did reduce, the engine ran somewhat cleaner
and generally seemed overjoyed about the change. 1f
you've got a two-stroker that fouls plugs and the air,
try it. We think you'll be pleased. It is or soon will be
readily available at your local dealer.
