This is going to give me nightmares
Drove the 80, brought my 8 month old Shikoku dog to the ICU. She's not well. I've started a GoFundMe fund as I'm running out of money as they try to find out what's wrong with her. Here is a link, if you could, I'd appreciate it. Anything helps.

Ran some sections of the OBDR with a great group of guys.
Full trip report and photos can be found here Oregon Backcountry Discovery Route Trip Report
You know everyone loves photos around here. I love the area around Red River Gorge. I've only ever been down there for rock climbing and some adventure racing. Haven't been back since buying my 80 series. Can't want to get down there and explore. I'm slowly gathering as much Intel as possible. Were you following part of the KAT while down there?

At the risk of going "chatty" as others have mentioned the guy did say he's selling off items on eBay...
AND.... I've seen much "worse" reasons for starting a "go fund me" I need to go on vacation, I need a new phone, ect...
This is caring for a living thing that has no way to care for itself, seems a Nobel cause if you ask me. And regardless of if it was a rescue or not, doesn't change the current state the animal is in now.
Kentucky Adventure TrailI'm not sure what the KAT is. The cruiser was just the camping rig in the gorge. I did go through the Nada tunnel a bunch. I love that.
^^ This. "Musthave" was one of a half-dozen guys who welcomed me to go on my very first trail ride in my new 80 a couple months ago. At one point we all parked and he led the way down to a beautiful waterfall he knew about, hacking tree branches and vines along the way so others could enjoy that trail in the future. I don't profess to know him well but I know he sees the Cruiser community as just that. He's not just some dude who parachuted in here looking for a freebie.If you want to donate to help his dog, cool. If you don't, cool. No need to flame the guy for asking.
Okie dokie.....Gofundme for vacation---> insane. Gofundme for new phone----> insane. Gofundme for the care of my pet when I have good cash that I let said pet ride around in---->socialistic insanity. Gofundme because of a legitimte need posted by someone else on your behalf------>totally different planet, conversation and forum.
Noble cause you say? Write him a check
BTW, if you'll notice, I asked him twice how I could look at his ebay items and he has yet to answer. Not because I had any idea he would be making it up but because I may want to pay him for some cool items for my 80s
BTW again, my son just turned 16 and desperately needs some transportation. If you don't mind, reckon you could help me out paying for a nice 80...actually I think he'd rather have a 100 series.
Sounds like my last drive back from Brisvegas, started losing oil pressure coming into the Isa, got it home and it promptly dropped 5L on the driveway, turned out to be a front crank seal failure caused by a cracked balancer which also took out the keyway on the crank and put the car off the road for 3 months over xmasDrove 300km to Brisbane on Saturday night after working 11hrs. Bought new injectors and fuel filter on Sunday morning, fitted them in the afternoon. Then drove 300km back to chinchilla, overheated on the range with 200km to go. Found the flange on the back of the turbo leaking causing big heat soak in the engine bay and the crappy aftermarket fan clutch had completely failed. Used crappy old silicone from a truck stop to seal up the exhaust and attempted to duct tape the fan clutch to the hub. Duct tape lasted about 2 minutes before it got torn off, babied it the next 200km and got to chinchilla by 11 and promptly fell asleep.
