Gross, but I understand. This is definitely a clean ride and a solid start for you and your kid to get started with. Head gaskets are relatively easy and almost a rite of passage at this point.

Wait until you get hit with the tariffs…fedex sent me a separate bill after receiving the items. I think it was around $100 for my fee but that was about 6 weeks ago…it’s gone up since then. Still worth the cost of doing business with Escape Gear. Top quality gear and customer service.

What’s up fellas. My wife’s been driving the hell out of this cruiser. She just rolled over 250k and will finally slow down in September. Regarding my loss of oil, I’m not seeing any blue smoke or drops below the cruiser, yet I’m adding about 1 qt every 1,000 miles. I think I read that’s...

Looks good, need sunglasses to stare at that block!!

That’s a beauty!

Thank you; great explanation. This is great info. “Ticks of the trade”, if you will.

That’s a sleek rack!

He said his buy it now price was $45K which was “much less than he paid for it”. He said it was owned by one of his dad’s customers. She traded it into Toyota and they ended up keeping it for a while, before this dude swept it up. So officially, only two owners? Not sure. I bet he could get...

I often used those when I turned wrenches on fighter engines. Many tight spaces. The crows feet work, but suck to use at the same time. Good luck, I know you’ll get it.

Hey brother. I’m not so sure nowadays. It’s hard to find good help and even harder to keep it. And not using a torque wrench makes my skin crawl…makes me feel weird inside. Like not wearing a condom for the first time with a hooker. It must be the ol’ jet engine mech in me. So to speak...

Have you tried a “crows foot”?

Another horse show for my youngest this time. My oldest daughter rides English, Hunter/Jumper specifically. My youngest went from English to Western. Definitely a difference in the type of crowds at each event. The western shows start with our national anthem and a prayer. God Bless the USA.

Wow! What a beauty. Meticulous ownership seems a dramatic understatement. GLWS
