Hello Clay, My Friend! Yes this is Marty from Buffalo!
We developed a friendship back Pre-Covid when I was introducing a few of you guys here to "Tripp Plating" in Buffalo for Chrome and Zinc plating.
Clay does fantastic restoration work on anything from vintage motorcycles, carburetors, farm equipment to chain saws!
He taught me plenty of OEM, stock items etc.!
He is very knowledgeable! We talk at least once a week and have been trading parts and work back and forth!
He turned me on to a trick with carb bowl gaskets, by using correct o-ring material for old bowl gaskets! Works great for
the few jobs I've done!
One time, I sent him a whole pile of switch controls I thought was just junk! For his inventory!
Few weeks later, get a package in the mail? He goes, all that junk? he put together a set of correct date coded 76 KZ900 handle bar controls! All new wiring and plastic coating! What a surprise! They look better than new! He also speedo's and tach's
But! Here is my Shout out to Clay in Kansas!
Here are pics of the controls he re-did about a year ago!
Great Guy and Restorer!
