  1. Ya,,, that's a favourite road,,, yes it's gravel, but it's worth it sometimes. What time at the caboose??? Don't forget it takes time to hug and eat and all that stuff.
  2. Now finally I can help out. The hole is designed to be at the bottom,, that is closest to the engine,,,, why???? I really can't tell you, other than the fact that it is probably warmer there and so there is less chance of snow clogging the hole,,,, and yes, you can get snow it the throat of a carb.
  3. Congrats, you at least will know the time and the date,,,, me????? they just slowly on told me that I wasn't needed anymore,, well not that day anyways, and then maybe the next, but,,,, hey Dad, what you doing tomorrow?????? finally I told them,,, my kid and crew,,,, they were on their own,, kind of more or less,, so yes, I'm now retired officially,,,, well most of the time,,, unless they need me..... opps there goes the phone again, time to wake up!!!
  4. Wednesday is coming up soon,,, anybody looking for ice-cream,,,, we could meet someplace maybe,,,, we might even let you follow us,,,, or lead the way,, now that would be different.
  5. So who is the lady in pink?
  6. Can I guess????? All three are married,, all from the same area,,,and they are not the three musketeers,,although sometimes I wonder.
  7. Does this mean you spend more time looking????? I'm telling!
  8. Looks like something to do with cows,,,, or maybe it's just all BULL,, that would fit our site I think!
  9. Don't think he would be impressed,,, you might even get yourself a visit over that remark,, better get the defenses ready!!! Try again.
  10. Now why did you go and do that for,,,, I could have told you it would be apainful!
  11. Now who is that all bent over????
  12. Does that make it go faster??? I thought clean cylinder walls was a good thing,,,, or are you thinking about the other two walls???? Now I'm confused
  13. Oil change at 600 miles???? or was that suppose to read 6000?
  14. Now who's fault is that???????? Retired?? let's see. I get up when I wake up, bathroom, and then coffee with weather, news and VR site. Then check to see if my dearie is awake yet and get some breakie, and then I look to see what's on the menu for the day,,,, if there is nothing then I might go for a ride to find something. Lunch is between 12 and 3 with supper planned for around 6 to 7pm, but first a snooze to make sure that part still works,,, can't let it not be working, that could be detrimental to ones health. After supper I'll decide that what was not done today will now have to wait until tomorrow, and while deciding it's always good to consider the bike and or maybe even take it on a test ride just to make sure and put in some fresh gas,,,, it just don't like old gas, so that's a necessary operation, one never knows when one might need the scoot in an emergency. During all this time I wait for snow,,,, I know, your thinking SNOW? in the summer time???? yep!! got to be ready, you just never know,,, and it's only a few months away. Tractors need to be serviced, upgraded, checked out, and planning needs to be done,,,,, it's a large load for one man to carry, but somebody has to do it. Oh,,, sorry, you wanted to know what I do with my day??? I fix things, and sometimes when I fix something it even works,,, amazing!!!
  15. Yeah but Bob, Harleys do it everyday and are able to do close to 60 mph too! Ya Bob, maybe you should get one,,, it's seems to be a trend
  16. You forgot GaryN. I know he's trying to hide,, but he's there, on 2 legs!
  17. Two suspects,,, kind of hard to recognize I know,,,,, but if you do guess, then I ask, What was it that you recognized about them?
  18. Kind of know what you is going through, got my knee out of joint just in time to miss out on the IR at the Hub a few years ago, couldn't ride until late Oct or so. Relax, enjoy and pretend you're the king,,,,, maybe that will help.
  19. Good chance that the top part of the connection is not mating properly with the bottom unit. You should first try a good cleaning, then you can try to tighten up the connectors in the head, you'll need a very small screwdriver and a magnifying glass, and you can try raising the lower unit to more closely match the top unit, loosen the screws and add a nut or two to raise it.
  20. Kill switch??? rock it back and forth a couple of times to make sure.
  21. Get a buddy to come over to help, come up with a problem and you have to go somewhere right away, when you come back,,, all done, but buddy doesn't come back again.
  22. We won't miss you a bit while you're catching up,,, but hurry back or we might find a replacement, as hard as that might be.
  23. Probably the biggest PITA is the air mixture screw. It's stuck in behind a plug just under the diaphragm cover and is most likely a hard one to remove. Some say to leave them be, but I find that cleaning and setting them properly is helpful. Be careful upon removal, take your time, and you'll find a the needle, a very small o-ring and a super small washer in there along with a spring,,, so don't go loosing any, they're hard to find.
  24. Lucky you,,, you live on a gravel pit,,,, some of us civilized folks have dirt on our yard that supports growth, and wives that say,,, get out there and remove that growth,,,, ya, once a week at least,,, or you know what happens!!!!
  25. Careful, sometimes the numbers are not all there.
