Colony brass rings too large for manifold

[mike c]

 Was wondering if any body has bought the new manifold kit for a linkert from Colony lately. I did! The rings were seemingly too large and would not tighten down with the new nuts that came with the kit. Ended up using my old rings. I had previouly bought just a set of rings to try on my old manifold and they were the same. Very loose on the manifold and would not tighten down.

Weekend ws a 3-day drunk. Was good to see the guys. And by the way. He is now Artie5bikes. Panhead is running fine I think. What with the snow and rain again and again its hard to run her for more than 2 miles. Only rode  about five minutes down there. Happy Trails.
