  1. Fireplace and some wine.
  2. That's a lot of wood to pull and split My foreman has limited tongue wight ....Don't strain your milk.
  3. " Well endowed".LOL..Hey I worked for that It's painful to drop that ca$h... I am impressed with the trailer hitch weight. What is your limit?
  4. I see Ebay has complete kit with cylinders and shoes for $169
  5. Damn...frozen...So you put one in a vise to compress it and they did not move?
  6. Gwbarm will know.. I had to replace several parts on my Yamaha. It is a 2017 model. However with the model number / serial # i was able to look up OEM yamaha parts non line. Hence, I was able to get Yamaha's part numbers. Then I went on EBAY and got one part and it had the Yamaha part number. Brand new part at less than 1/3 $. Likewise I got another part from Amazon; again ordering and making sure the part had the Yamaha part number.....Just saying. I like OEM parts but not the $.
  7. Wow that's interesting. Two(2) cylinders. The brakes don't look rusty abused. Gwbarm and the Canadian dude on this site are very knowledgeable. Rebuild kits and honing the cylinders would be cheapest...I have bought Yamaha brake part$$$ Oh My!.
  8. will you plane or check head with feeler gauges for flatness?
  9. Glad to hear that. head bolts original?
  10. The gas tank was rusted when I got him. I epoxy coated the inside of his tank. You know when I was in Croatia on a Nato highway cnstruction job the trucks were from the US...CAT with tandem front steering axles. But from the factory they had "Coated epoxy tanks!
  11. Yes my Kaw 1000 is shaft drive. >94 K miles ( I did not put all those on..LOL) It had a trailer hitch when I got it with 65 K miles from a widiow. But one looses some efficiency frrom the worm gear. Not that I need it.
  12. Glad you figured that out....Gasket blown....???? Hydrolok???? Is rod bent also...?
  13. My heavy gravely blade worked good in wet snow. My body weight lifts it up..LOL everything frozen now 5 F last night...last Saturday it was 34F perfect sno angel snow!
  14. So do you use the winch (got it right this time) that came with the Arctic cat or a separate winch?
  15. Yes that make sense...Dumb idea...I have a 12 vdc linear actuator I was trying to figure out what to do with it.
  16. lift the Winch...Freudian slip lift with a winch....OMG too sleepy
  17. Have you ever thought of using an electric "linear actuator" to lift the pow instead of the wench. Linear actuators use a screw mechanism to move the load. They are limited to a short stroke ...10 inches or so. However they have a lot of lift force and down force. Security gates use 12 vdc linear actuators.
  18. Bummer! How heavy is that plow? does your plow have a rubber wear strip?
  19. I saw some on line that weighed 70 Lbs 4 ft wide.
  20. The snow plow for my Gravely weighs 110 Lb. Is that too heavy to mount on Foreman?
  21. It was almost 32 F last night. I always wanted to make a snow angel in my Bikini like I see the girls at the ski lodges do. But could not lay directly in the snow. It is cold. It was a bucket list thing!...LOL
  22. It was 22 overnight but dropped to 15 F.. No power loss. But I feel for those who have lost power. That is bad.
  23. WE had another inch of snow last night. I have the SXS on that solar Bat charger I bought from Harbor Freight.. I mounted the solar panel inside the window on my shed. It appears to work great with the sun that shines through the window. I keep Foreman in the cottage basement where I can watch over him and keep him charged up.
  24. be careful...Protection is best remember an ounce of prevention .....etc. LOL
  25. Don't stop off at the bars!
