Does that include truck and marine diesels too, article didn’t say. Love my Volvo diesels. Beastly.
Sure doesn't. At least medium and heavy duty. 11, 13, 16 and 17L(new) will be around for a long long time.

I've had better luck with the maples than oaks. Smaller the better. I've had way better luck pot growing the oaks from the nut for two years then put them in the ground. Shoved plenty of nuts in the ground over the years with decent success too.

Saw a guy walking down the street with a huge man bun held in place by a bright green clip or something. Seagulls must have thought it was food cause they were dive bombing the shit out of him. Either that or the seagulls hate man buns more than I.

Guy just picked it up. Been 30 years since he rode it. Grin from ear to ear. Nice to put some old iron back into service.

Just finished a functional restoration on a 1981 XT250. Been sitting since 1992, original owner. Exhaust was rotted off but I found an original Supertrapp fo the old girl. Did a nice long wide open fifth gear run and shut it down. About 25 miles on the plug. Bike will likely see 'around the property' duty. Seems a touch lean but I'm inclined to leave it be. Opinions?

imo cut the bolt head off , get a die, make it a stud, might have to fab a die , if someone stopped there , its welded for sure
X2. Had success with this before. Try a few things but that looks like can o' worms for sure.

For me I run my track loose almost to the point of ratcheting. I've had to adjust my track on rides on occasion. Using this tool with a more precise way of measuring I have not had to adjust my track during a ride. I also work on sled on the side and don't have the luxury to test ride them so it works out well for that. If you look at an Arctic Cat service manual Arctic Cat also has a tool to check track tension.
Same here. Been doing it by feel for years but sometimes you miss. Plus I maintain 4 machines so this could be a nice time saver.

I think I'll give one a try. I run loose as well, and sometimes a bit to loose.

Interesting. What is your assessment?

The Bushnell Trophy Cam E3 is an older model but on sale right now for $90. I have 3 and have literally taken hundreds of thousands of photos. Lithium batteries last a year (no video). IMO cant go wrong for non-cell.

There was a single throttle body efi saber cat/f series F5
Sorta. Sabercat only I believe. I own two. 2006 was the only year for EFI, single throttle body, no powervalves. All F5 were dual carb powervalve motors which was worth 20 extra HP 85 vrs. 105.

is it potentially a not enough cooler issue, or just not enough snow getting on the coolers issue? my guess is the latter of the two.
we're leaving to go riding in a bit, hard trails right now but likely loose this afternoon.
Either way. Get it right. There is absolutely no reason you should need scratchers on mid winter trail or have to worry about a quarter mile run down a road.

For Christ sake, they best have put enough cooler in these things. I just did 200 miles on the F7. Several long road runs and dirt stretches with zero snow. Not as much as a blink. My ZR8 would have melted today.

Mine 1990. 460 5 speed.

Any small machine shops around? Wouldn't take much to turn out a pair.

2004 F7R Sno Pro, Green Tiger Edition. Bought new and after 12,000 miles figured it was time for a refresh. Complete skid rebuild, all shocks rebuilt, new speedo side driveshaft bearing. All front suspension components powdercoated. Five cans of foaming engine brite and a ton of scrubbing. Happy with the result and the thing still flat out rips. Might just sell the 2018 ZR8 and run this old girl next year.

I added a couple simple eye hooks, got lucky with an existing hole in the rail.

I’ve done similar lol , tried a single fuse show times for about 9 minutes and it went off in just over 1:30 lol. Over 600 mortars in that amount of time is chaos
Wrapped the fuse I assume?

Name that washer, the sled gods were smiling on me that day I guess.
Hint. Here is what I was digging for. Yup, toast. 10,700 miles. Gave up at the end of last season.
