my problem is it wont cool at all... its like every other time i go to play with that thing it works... but then when its like 90000000000000* outside it wont work at all....
compressors while being 2 yr old is still "new" since i havent put many miles on it since it was put in... had to replace it because the shaft seal on the original let go and was pushing the freon out through the clutch..
cant remember off the top of my head... will need to hook the gauges back up

anyone got one of them walk behind brush mowers they dont want/need anymore?? sorta wanting one to take care of the strip between me and the neighbors field across the street... it keeps getting over grown by those weeds that eventually grow a stalk as hard as a tree limb.. wanting to try and keep it cut down... he mows it down with a giant tractor pulled brush hog... but not often enough... last time he pulled it he burried the fire hydrant in the weeds.. it pulled them over but not enough to chop them up and kill them... least not there... i try to keep it cleared out around there... but can only do so much with a string trimmer... and there so many of them tree like things left behind that the regular push mower cant go through over there...
Well talked to the dealer i bought the tires from last august... They ordered me a new one said it should be in tomorrow around 10:30 ish... Said they really dont do tire warranties but still falls under the mfg warranty so theyll need to send it out after its changed off to see how much theyll cover for the replacement.. showed the guy the picture i had of the tire and he said it was definitely failing.. they think when they send it out the mfg going to try blaming it on impact.. but wasnt sure... i told em it was the interior tire on the rear and with the way the tires stagger front to rear if it was an impact caused issue i should be seeing something on the front too and am not... since on the duallys the front tire sits dead center between the 2 rear tires... he agreed but said the mfg would probably still try to blame it on an impact issue...

I put 500 miles on it in the last 2 years, was just tired of watching it set. Wife wasn't overly thrilled that I sold it, but understood because right now I'm so focused on mud truck that I haven't cared to ride. She also knows that in a few years I want to look into a dresser or some sort and she likes the idea of a rolling sofa lol

theres one sitting down in the shed i want to re-assemble.... dad took it apart MANY!!!! years ago to repaint the frame... then got transferred and had to move before it could be re-assembled.. in the process of moving he kicked a can of thinner into the frame putting a dent in the frame and scratching the paint at the same time.. he never put it back together... still have all the parts... 1973 Honda CB450.. has both an electric start and a kick start.. but need to pull the engine apart... still turns freely.. but want to pull it apart to make sure everythings still in good condition.. put lube in places it should be lubed...

One summer I took it to Cape Cod MA from the lower part of CT with buddies for the week. Camp ground did not allow bikes on the grounds so had to leave them at the front gate and lug all the gear to the site ;(

Think that's what my first bike was, over head cams with a long cam chain right? If so they had issues with the chain stretching throwing off cam timing making it hard to start other wise was a nice bike.

theres a motorcycle dealer here i went into hoping to try and get a job with them.. they had a 73 CL350 series sitting in the showroom for sale... i didnt like where the exhaust ran on that one... with dads CB450 the pipes ran along the bottom of the frame on both sides... the CL350 had the pipes both run to the left side of the bike then take a sharp rise up with the muffler sitting just below the seat...
the only concern with dads bike is supposedly my uncle had borrowed it once and according to mom ran it without oil in it... but when i ask dad about it he says he doesnt remember my uncle ever doing that... so dunno... part of why i want to tear it down and rebuild it... see what it still looks like inside and freshen up all the gaskets...

Larry is right. Currently I have a Honda CB919. Before that I had a CBR 929, which was a lot of fun in the mountains, and my first bike was an anniversary edition HD Sportster 1200. I do wish I had never got rid of that one. Not many HD's came with a two tone factory paint.
If you are just wanting to learn to ride for the first time. Take a rider safety or learning class through the local community college. My brother and I did the one in the school out in Clayton or Smithfield. It was fun and informative. Plus the bikes they taught it on were light and easy to ride.
And now I'm thinking maybe of keeping the 919 as I want to ride again... But I've made a deal with my brother.. so to him it shall go... maybe...
In other news, got a big week this week. Round 3 interview with a corporation, first round interview for a contract gig and first round interview with that Ag dealership that I thought it'd be fun to work for. However, it took them over a month to call back, so, they may not be all that interested or ready to hire. I'm ready to get back to work, though I have to say, two months off this summer has been nice. Though next time, I want to have paid vacation, as watching the savings dwindle down isn't as much fun as one would think.
Ya'll have a good week.

Just realized with all the interviews this week. I haven't made plans to start on the shop, which is the next and final step to this move thing that's been happening. Packing that up will be hell. Also need to go see my brother to drop of the motorcycle and deal with the civic title.
Just keeps adding up.
