I was out scoot'n on the Ultra and the shift linkage locked up.

I got off and found a walnut had become wedged into the shift linkage and jammed the whole thing up.



What are the odds?

heh! Reminds me of something that happened on my minibike when I was 12.

I was putting around on a dead-end street and the throttle stuck wide open!
Luckily, it was a 2HP engine and I was able to get it down to walking speed by dragging my feet. (Brakes? nope.)

I shorted the kill-wire under the seat with the engine trying as hard as it can to pull.

I found the problem was a dry oak leaf had become wedged in the throttle shaft. My throttle control with return spring was on the governor; the leaf was directly on the throttle!

Soon, I added a kill-switch to the handlebars : )

That little death-trap still doesn't have brakes but the kill switch has held up OK.

Yes. Throttle is still on the gov.
It used to wind out with my 80 pound butt on there. I used to waste mopeds with it.

Since then, I have adjusted the gov down to 30 MPH.
Besides, the engine is from 1965. I don't want it to throw its rod!

Oooooh... an American Black Walnut! Very sweet!!! My Dad and I harvested some of these trees in my younger days. The husk will stain anything, but does a particularly great job on other woods.
