Just show the Warden which end of the shovel to hold and then you will have a good excuse to stay in bed till next month..........

We always knew that ol Puck was full of something............................

It is wonderful Boss man. :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

The only dumb question is the one that was never asked.

I'm not so worried about the shoe horn needed to get my carcass in there as I am worried about the crane needed to get me back out. It does look interesting and IF it ever comes out I might even get one. They claim it will handle snow just fine because it is front wheel drive, but have they ever driven it in snow. I have had front wheel drive cars that were the worst thing ever in snow or even just wet roads. I agree that it will need a provision for a trailer hitch. The web page says they will be delivering 48,000+ units in 2016, but they have not yet started to hire the 1500 workers to do it. They have a plant location. but that is an awful long way from a fully tooled plant. I can't help but to think that it aint gonna happen in 2016.

It is all a balancing act. The 7" brakes are very small so they have very little braking power so the standard controller will still work. The controllers can be turned way down also, Same as when I pulled my empty cargo trailer behind my truck and the trailer had brakes strong enough to lock the wheels when loaded to 7,000 lbs but yet can be turned down to not lock the wheels when unloaded at 1200 lbs.

Do you still have summer blend gas in it? Winter blend has more of the lighter fractions to help vaporization and cold weather starting.

Awesome. I'm speechless................

Just keep a lot of small stashes of cash everywhere so that if you get robbed they just get one pocket full, not all of it. Same with you Camera cards so you do not lose all of your pics.

The hubs and axles on the trailer are all metric, you can go to a bearing store and get the correct metric bearing in a much better quality than stock. Even though the sizes are real close, they are not close enough to mix SAE and Metric parts. If you are going to convert to American sizes you will be best off to build a complete new axle assembly. Get a piece of square tubing, weld on the new stubs and mount the new hubs with good old 1" bearings available anywhere. The only part that you would not be replacing is the piece between the stubs, stock is just a chunk of sheet metal bent into a U. It will cost more to try to salvage that piece than to just replace it. Halfway between us in Illinois is a place called R&P Carriage that sells all the stuff you would need at good prices. I am planning to do the same thing but I will be setting it up with 7" electric brakes. If you make a new setup, make sure to get the stuff that will allow you to add electric brakes latter on if you wish.

Your Welcome......................

Since you posted twice does that mean you got 50+". that would be something.

Since the tach is also dropping out that means the the problem is on the primary side of the coil. check all that wiring and connectors. Check to be sure that a pin has not backed out of the connector to cause intermittent contact.

I wonder how that super soft seal reacts to -25F or 150F. Both and everything between can happen here.

Are you sure you are not riding a Harley where you have to tether all the parts so you don't lose them............

That looks interesting

Oh come on now, where is the challenge in that?

But you Michiganders get your meat from WI where we really know about such things, After all the headquarters of Johnsonville sausage, Klements Sausage, and Patrick Cudahy are all from here. The most liked football team is from WI and even named because of meat packing. You are just going to have to come here and findout for yourself. If you plan your trip to Orlins MD to travel through Milwaukee, I will be happy to introduce you to Leon's and/or Nite Owl, and/or Kopps on the way to MD. Better come hungry, there is a specialty shop that does nothing but Hot dogs that we would have to ride right past on the way to any of these other places. we might have to stop to eat dogs and cream at least 4 times before we escape Milwaukee.

Cool that means mine is not used so I will not get blamed for as much stuff............. The chat was working pretty good last night up to the point I got "Silenced". And then I got called a dirty rotten spammer by the system.

I have used Remington Rem DriLube. It leaves a Teflon coating that is dry to not attract dirt, it will not make a mess of a jacket or you if you brush against the rail, and even the south pole does not get cold enough to matter. I only use it on sliding metal to metal like the rollers and rails. You do not want to use it in a rotating bearing.

It is snowing here now, I we are expecting up to 1 inch here. I have saved the best for someone else.

Those still scare me. They use lithium batteries. The same type of batteries that are starting on fire in the hover boards. The same type of batteries that were starting fires in the new Boeing 787. If all of the engineers at Boeing cant figure out how to make them safe, they scare me. There are just to many confirmed cases of lithium battery igniting while not even plugged into anything. Yes there are a LOT more of them that are used safely every day. But it is the small percentage that scares me. Lithium battery fires are very difficult to put out, the battery chemistry gives it its own oxygen supply, so it burn happily away even buried in the bottom of your saddlebag. Search YouTube for lithium or LiPo battery fires.

Nope, Kopps is good, Night Owl is better, but Leon's is even better yet. Leon's This should get @cowpuc going, A place that does Premium Custard AND Worlds Finest Hot Dogs. It was last remodeled in the 50s so it still looks like a 50s drive in ice cream stand.

HA! It will be at least another month before I can wear a pair of shoes. But I am in there chatting with myself............ Getting some really good answers toooo...........

I have the 5 in 1 from harbor freight. I use it a lot during the summer. I use the air compressor to put 120 PSI in my airplane to power the pneumatic retractable landing gear and the brakes. I use it to recharge the flight batteries on multiple aircraft. I never tried to start a bike with it but it will start my truck. As mentioned, you need to keep it charged. Leaving it sit with a partly discharged battery will kill the battery. I keep it in my truck unless I am off on a bike trip then it comes with me. In the truck I have a charge port rigged with a relay so that when ever the truck is running it is being charged so that it is always ready to go.
