    I think I may have stumbled onto some Power Tour guys ?

    NOTE: just jump ahead to 4:00 into the video for the cars :) I was changing tires on my 2025 Honda Transalp and the rear tire was beyond my skill level. I strapped the rim/tire on one siderack of my 2021 CRF300L and the new rubber on the other side rack. Took off for a scenic 70 mile one way...

    Is this a bullet hole?!?

    a silver dollar is about double the diameter of a 12 gauge load. buck or slug (with the barrel on the floor, there wouldn't be any spread) now if the hole is the diameter of a new dollar coin, well that's a lot closer ;) 'monkey

    Transfer Case shifter ROD vs Cable? What are people using to avoid unnecessary wear in transfer case?

    sorry, i'm not. i can say that my 208 shifter+linkage doesn't seem to present pressure on it. slick and a bit of wiggle in the detents. of course i'm not checking when the truck is 'flexing' so there could very well be. :) 'monkey

    Let's talk one man brake bleeder

    i use a peanut butter jar with a hole drilled in the lid. the hole in the lid is tight enough on the hose to keep it from moving. 1 'coil' of hose is submerged in fluid in the jar. when brakes, with air in the line, are applied the air bubbles up and 'out' of the fluid. fluid, sans air, is...

    Nobody warned me about the MPGs on these square bodies!

    i gotcha. it's just guesstimate math at the pump. 3.73 rear on skinny/stock height tires. reman/furb quadrajet, easy on the shifting. road to town is 55 mph, 20 miles each way. i don't do 'town' driving so that helps. (1 four way stop and 1 traffic light to get where i gotta go) go to the...

    Nobody warned me about the MPGs on these square bodies!

    wow! lots of fun on the go pedal but wow! :) my plain jane K20 Ultra HD gets about 15 even that makes my wallet cringe compared to my daily. 2021 CRF300L gets 65 day in day out loaded or unloaded ;) 'monkey

    Surprise No. 238.2, and Thinking Outloud and In Writing

    i know my '91 dakota w/318 had a resistor block in the firewall that handled the heater blower speed. big coil, little coil, straight wire. bolted into the firewall and protruded into the air duct so that it would get cooled by the flow. same current draw regardless of of climate control...
