What did you do in your garage today..?

In the 2010s maybe. Marc hasn't won on a Honda in this decade.

Since MotoGP is mostly the Ducati Cup...put the entire grid on 1000cc current tech two strokes sans all the available myriad of techno nannies. MM93 can highside himself into orbit. This season was rather boring. At least the bagger series is still a spectacle.

Merry Christmas gift to myself….should make tire swaps easier and faster. And the price….

Nice score! Impacts will chip the coating off of lugs making them rust quickly (not enough to affect them, just ugly). Best to do initial loosen and final tighten by hand (ie. just use gun to zip them on and off without the ugga).

This is the plan!

Wow, that looks exactly the same as my retired 1988 Honda. Mine went 30+ years until the track drive became too sloppy.

Like most Hondas, it didn’t win any competitions but it showed up for work every day.

I had a 30 year old Honda 8hp track drive snowblower that would absolutely bury my new 9 1/2hp Honda. My new one is still pretty good but not as good as the old one. Unfortunately it was completely rusted out. Now I power wash the new one at the end of the season and spray it down with a can of Rustcheck. It’s about 6 years old now and still looks like new.

Don't forget to register it for the lifetime warranty within 90 days. I didn't know about this for my first sawzall but luckily I haven't had any problems but only use it once in a while. I love that Rigid backs their tools for life, but the requirement to register seems like a sleazy way out for customers who forget or don't realize. Original receipt should be good enough. BTW, if you ever get a replacement, you also need to register that within 90 days for continued coverage.

Most of the lug nuts I work on aren't nice enough to worry about, but I took a risk on a set of sleeved sockets to at least protect the wheels. Regardless of brand, they all seem to all have mixed reviews of breaking, so just in case, I usually try to loosen by hand first (especially when I wasn't the one who tightened them). So far so good, even when I just zip them stright off, but I'm not doing it day in day out like a full-time mechanic might.

Thanks will do! First I’ll test it on the car this week to make sure it does what I want it to do.

Then I’ll either keep or return.
