You had my video of the nickle trick posted. In cleaning up extra e-mails I no longer use, I eliminated the one that was connected to the U-Tube account that hosted it. I re-uploaded it to another account and if you still want to use it the link is: 6PQvs2y5gXg&feature=youtu.be  (Naturally the beginning is http://www.utube.com.)

Told a Harley rider at work about the nickel trick on time.  Even showed him on my Valk.  He just looked at it and said his could do that also.  I asked him how many welding rods would it take to make the nuckel stay on. Roll Eyes He smiled and said 4.  At least he has a sense of humor.

Yup, I showed a Harley friend of mine too.
He also said he could make that work.
 Still cant find that nickle. Heck, I did it one time and took off with the nickle still there.
 Later, after a 300 mile day, I found the nickle.
 It  had gone down the valve cover and wound up behind the fuel runner.

I've seen it bone on a Harley, then had to listen to the guy bitch about messing up the chrome by jamming the nickel into the cooling fins.....

I have actually seen the nickle trick done on a Harley, but my friend had lost his key and couldn't start it.

If you are riding  and it is a must that you keep your eyes on the road, you are riding too fast.
