    New to Bikes, Forum, Need suggestions!

    I am sure there are some how-to faq type posts out there, I do assume it is ALLOT like the 250 so take a look at those FAQ's, grain of salt here values for valve clearance may be different. Just verify all that before you even spin a wrench. Is it modified at all? does it happen to have pod...

    good machine, notice the nice large auger gear box at the front. You want to ensure that is a large unit on a bigger machine. A few years ago looked like many manufactures started putting smaller gear units up there and they would sheer before the sheer pins typically.

    New scarbrough rider "19"

    It's the newer mtds all china made that are horrid, maybe some higher end ones are still USA made. The USA made ones with North American parts are rock solid.

    That 10hp diesel is going to twist that machine into a pretzel. That's after you have fun trying to mount it and then find new pullies for the 1" shaft since the ones off the dead motor are 3/4". Then If the auger gear doesn't shatter your lucky. The 6.5 PA motor at 89 dollars is a better...

    This is about the same quality as any new MTD machines, cheap low grade asian motors/components. Will last you a few times until either the engine gives or the auger components. Typically these don't have bearings in anything but rather bushings that are designed to wear out.

    Purchasing motorcycle in dead of winter

    For the record I bought a 94 ninja 250 a 2 years ago, started right up in -20. Rode it down to -1 in november. The 94 had 14k on it, when I sold it 12 months later in similar temps she had 30k. Don't be afraid of low K, as long as the bike has been taken care of its will be fine. Maybe I got...

    Purchasing motorcycle in dead of winter

    If he wants to sell it , he needed to assume nobody would buy a bike they cannot hear running. If you cannot hear it running, confirm everything is operational then I would not buy it. Even with some contract you will be hard pressed to get anything back if there was a problem. I've sold and...

    Got my first bike

    nice first bike, best advice I can give is a beginners course. Forces you to go through the paces. RTI was my choice, was good. Also don't waste money on "upgrades", other than a new lever that looks bent to me...

    snow blowers

    If you have not bought one already just get a two stage, the problem with the single is they work awesome at plain snow, even wet snow if not too much, but the moment you get a snow plow mound your at it for hours....or end up breaking out the snovel. You can find decent used ones on kijiji for...
