New Owner, a few questions and observations

[k0ua]

Thanks guys for the replies. Awesome info. As for the hour meter, it was in 10th's and I obviously need stronger glasses !!!! The horn issue still confuses me. It is definitely a horn button (works when I put a a meter on it and press the button) and the wiring ends at the two connectors under the hood at the very front. Just odd that an inexpensive horn would be an "option". Just leave it all off if that's the case. I really appreciate the advice and I'll keep you posted on my upgrades and observations.

Some bean counter in Korea got a raise and a vacation trip out of that idea of leaving the horn off of several thousand units to save a few Yen, or what ever they use over there for money. The good news is you can put what ever kind of horn you want on it to sound however you want it to sound. My Korean OEM one sounds kind of "tinny" . It sort of screeches, like pulling the testicles on a monkey..:laughing:

James,

Just curious. How do you know what that sounds like?

The CK's use a standard display for several models. Some utilize all the buttons and lights for available options, and some do not. No horn on mine either...I may look to see if I can add one to use as a warning signal since phones don't work well near me.
If your wheel setup is the same as mine, you will have three available widths for the rears depending on how you mount the wheels... be aware of the extra stress you will place on the rear bearings if you extend the wheelbase.

Mine came with a horn; the button is in the middle of my light switch. It's good for getting someone's attention while operating. My neighbor's kid just likes to honk it. It makes him laugh, like pulling on a monkey's balls.

I would be sure to Load the tires. And then if your not feeling stable widen the rims
