after a few drinks the flies appeared to have learned more evasive maneuvers and harder to hit..."Even flies fear the sting of death".

I have a can of Nitrogen spray (my pathologist friend gave it to me. He uses it to freeze tissue samples) He and I heated and then sprayed several 1/4 x 28 bolts that i was working on removing one evening. It worked. The nitrogen spray is good for zapping flies in mid air also.

I Always tried just a lot of heat in one place...to expand the threaded piece and not the bolt..

I had no doubt you did it. Dangerous /Risky Guy! Psychiatrists say that women in under developed societies seek out stable working men as mates. While women in developed societies seek out Dangerous men.

You're the Man!

Break something LOL I understand ...I shouldn't laugh I don't Downhill as I don't want to break something. Now Mike, he does it all...OMG You know women like Dangerous Men & Risk taking men ,,,We should ask Michelle...😜

Oh please..you guys would do it I know!

DOT oil??? Ialways getb confused about what number to use...I guess it depends on types seals Some rubbers don't last?

I like that feather light feel

Yes ...what about the no axle wheels....

Checking weight specifications of Aluminum vs Steel I found a 20% weight reduction. However, that amount to only about 100+lbs on a 8 X 5 ft trailer frame.

My friend had a otorcycle enclosed trailer with "no axle" wheels...Maybe Timbren. He was impressed how smooth the trailer performed That also alows lower deck height.

are they auto adjusting? I did not see that spring.

Have not found the 6 ft wide aluminum frame yet..I also want 15 inch wheels.

Gooood Morning Bridge Day 2025 survivors! Over 100,000 people visited WV New River Bridge Day! over 400 free jumpers. Bungy sling shot jumpers (OMG) and parachutist took the 876 foot plunge over the bridge.

With the Viking at 1450 and trailer at 900 lbs I am well below the tow capacity rating.

like 5700 lbs

Foreman has 5 speed manual. I do not notice the electric power steering. In fact, he is a handful to control. But I am small. The "noClutch " shifting took some getting used to. At first I automatically pulled the left brake when shifting as I am used to my Kaw 1000 clutch on the left LOL. I hold on in first gear as he will want to jump out from between my legs when we get moving.

I want to have a lighter trailer...Aluminum ...that I can pull with my Highlander AWD with my 1450Lb Yamaha SXS. Its 122 " X 64" w 84 inch WB. Has any one fitted out a naked frame aluminum trailer like that...I found Northern Supply has one < $900 but it is 5 Ft x 8 ft.

He is good...I have not had their free class on riding, but I have had him out a lot in very hilly rough terrain. He is torquey in firs gear.. He is manual tanny

The panhandle is awesome...There are places in the river woods in the Tallahassee area that people ...Cajuns I think ..have set up parament camps. They are hospitable...I was kinda lost there one time driving to meet friends and a guy led me out.

He is in southern Indiana It is amazingly beautiful there .Strip mine pits are great fishing and ..Little Nashville...Definitely a fun place at night.

I like 8hrs.but 10 is OK ..from the pan handle to Key west is >800 miles. Fortunately once you get out of Central Florida traffic ..OMG.. Nice trails are only an hour away. I sing as i drive...I can yodel pretty good...Mike talks to Michelle....Quality Time!

Before I changed the Primary Clutch Mr. AR had no get up and go even on a slight grade, I rebuilt the Primary and the secondary clutches. I installed in the aftermarket belt and it was an improvement but still not great. Once i could get him moving he had a lot of power in some deep mud and up hill. Then Ka-boom! That belt exploded. there wasn't but a few a pieces larger than 1/4 inch! Definitely a bad hair day! Hard surfacing aluminum (sheaves) is difficult. There are varieties of methods. I am familiar with ferrous metal hardening or at least prenil testing of same on large industrial drive rollers. Typically with ferrous metals it is the very thin surface that is hardened. Once you wear through that it is soft metal. I expect aluminum is the same. After the belt 'exploded' i noticed another "grove forming . So replaced that primary and new OEM belt. Now he is Ready even climbing on from a dead start.

Hmmmm...I had an aftermarket belt that I Micd' width and length was correct. It lasted 4 miles! Factory belt with new primary in there now. I'll check wear next spring. I can strip pretty fast. I bought the plastic rivets. I made a secondary compression tool. (Looks like A Rube Goldberg tool..LOL). And unfortunately I am experienced in working on 'Mr Always Ready., Yamaha 700 SXS.
