Re: Trailer Advice

Make sure everything works before you buy it. Also watch for water damage. If the seals the on the roof, windows are leaking it can make a mess. Rotten walls, rotten floor, etc. watch for delamination on the older hard wall trailers. if you buy in the winter make sure it was winterized properly. Lot...

Gas Tank repairs

I am expanding my tool kit for on the trail repairs. What does everyone use for gas tank repairs?

I have heard of a product called seal-all from Cdn Tire that is suppose to work well.

Any thoughts?

Re: Rad Repair - Brazing

Results are not good. The propane torch just did not heat the metal enough. I believe an acetylene torch is needed and I do not have one. I think the way a rad is built, it spreads out the heat too fast for a propane torch. On the advise of my neighbor (who is a mechanic), I used a product called ST...

I am not diss'in Scorpion, I installed them myslef and this was probably the cause. :banghead: As a do-it-yourself kind of guy, I am going to try to br...

I used to ride, but given a lack of people to go with, I sold my bike and started golfing Wednesday nights. Well after attending a meeting, I bought an '08 WR450 and it looks the golf clubs may be col...
