anyone had occasion to get a replacement key cut for an RTV? I just got an 1100 and received one ignition key and one cab key ... and I hate not having spares ...
Let\'s talk trailers again ...
I need to do some major surgery to my motorcycle trailer. This is custom designed and built small flatdeck that has some characteristics that were quite innovative when it was built back in '83. Hmm ... I guess I shouldn't be surprised that I need to do some...
The post on channel vs angle iron set my mind on the trailer path, and reminded me of something that's been sitting in the back of my mind for awhile.
I bought an older used Cherokee 2 horse bumper pull trailer some years back and I've been slowly making sure it lasts for awhile. Doesn't get...
Hi folks ... well, after my trying to destroy the Kubota (check "watch where you're going" on the Safety topics), Carver was extra fast getting new filters to me. I've got the old filter off and the new one in place ... but now I'm stuck ... with no owners manual, I have no idea how much (and...
watch where you\'re going!
I decided to "stretch" my pasture a bit on Saturday ... I've got about 8 acres of land between the house and barn that belongs to a Cell Phone company and has a tower and 3 supports .... and they rarely wack the weeds down .... so I've gradually fenced much of it off...
Organ \"Harvesting\"
It seems like this one has already been "put to rest", but I thought it was interesting enough to pass along.
Hope this one doesn't sound too political for the forum rules.
A politician in New Mexico was sponsoring a bill to single out bikers who choose not to wear...
Happy New Year folks!
Earlier in December, I hauled my old Cherokee 2 horse (dual axle) trailer out of the back in anticipation of a trip to Wisconsin to pick up some minis ... but, after cleaning it up and putting new rubber on it ... the wife procrastinated so long that the mares were sold...
Well ... not tractor related but a definite safety issue.
I have an indoor pool and, naturally enough for Michigan, a heater to keep the water warm enough to swim in. I had problems with the doggone heater over a year ago and wound up installing a new gas valve (propane) and a new pilot and...
from the Oct 3 Midland Daily New police news column:
A Freeland man was in fair condition after his tractor landed on him on some West Olson Road property at 2:30 PM Monday, reports the Midland County Sheriff's Office.
A McCormick farm tractor, driven by ..... , 58, was dragging a log with a...
I was down in Kentucky (Louisville) over the weekend for a big regional meeting of chapter presidents of an association I belong to, and stayed some extra time to look over the countryside (for my wife ... who has always been enthralled with Kentucky - something to do with horses).
Anyway, it...
I'm sure that most (or all) of you, like me, do the "light walk" whenever you're taking your trailer anywhere (you know, walking around and making sure all the lights are working). On a long trip, do you do it more often?
On a recent trip from Michigan to Montreal, I rode my motorcycle up there...
Well, I made it back from Montreal in one piece. Rode the Goldwing up there on Thursday ... 700 miles. Uneventful trip although I got snarled in Toronto in one of the incessant traffic snarls on the main freeway (401). 14 lanes wide altogether and still get stop and go traffic!.
Loaded up the...
I know some of us can relate ... the rest of you may enjoy it anyway:
Senior citizens are constantly being criticized for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know we take responsibility for all we have done and do not blame others.
BUT, upon reflection, we...
Man ... I just got my renewals for all the vehicles (except the bike) for this year and wigged out. I don't know if I just didn't pay attention in previous years or what ... but man-o-man.
Do any of y'all have utterly ridiculous registration fees like they do here in Michigan? Where's the...
