    Anyone into gardening here?

    My buddy gets dried chicken pooh pellets (HomeDepot??) which he mixes up with water to make a slurry. When he lifted the lid it was so foul! He says after adding that you can practically hear it grow. I think it's too smelly for the Squeeze.... Yeah I know it's coming. Yes, I've been thinking...

    I just bought a 1984 Honda V30 Interceptor

    I remember when that bike came. It was a game changer. I agree with what's already been said. No one really mentioned brakes much. Usually to get them working well again you need to clean and rebuild both calipers and master cylinders. Stuck cali pistons can be forced out by pumping grease in...

    Trailer question

    Went ahead and ordered the kit in post #23. It will need some extras added on. I think I'll assemble it with a can of silver paint in hand to coat all the cut ends. They were already starting surface rust when I looked at a brand new one. Made the mistake of actually weighing my current...

    Any machinists in the house?

    Would it be possible to to use some stiff card and make paper templates that fit the internal contours? I would think based on what you're doing you don't need much more than accuracy to decimal points. 10 thou vs 1 or 2. With scissor s and paper you should be able to get within 10 thou.

    Where do you guys go for new tires?

    Spooned a new rear on yesterday. This morning I'll go out and see if the pressure has dropped over night. A new front is in the post. Both from FortNine. Both the tires I'm replacing have maybe half their life left but I'm leaving on a trip soon and hate to head out on the last half of a tire...

    What's the one thing you always forget or wish you'd brought on long trip on 2 wheels?

    What are you reading?

    While reading the book above I found it very offensive to learn that Netanyahu assisted Qatar in funneling many millions into hamas. As long as Gaza was run by terrorists he would never have to negotiate with them. Netanyahu is a war criminal and isreal is an aparthied state. What an effing...

    What's the one thing you always forget or wish you'd brought on long trip on 2 wheels?

    People seem to carry fuel in those MSR bottles. Are they any different than a regular water bottle? How is fuel expansion handled?

    Pickup Trucks

    This seems like a great idea. If I had land I'd own a fleet of "field cars".
