Hi: Big Welcome Here

Hi Mac: They sure don't fool around in Nova Scotia Canada -- Big_Big fines compared to New Brunswick Canada

Fuel filter on the fuel pump maybe the problem.

Some never learn 

Hi: When you had trouble starting in the woods did you touch the throttle when starting the bike -- if so it will not let you start the bike for 15 seconds or more -- PCM looks at the throttle -- protecting the bike from taking off when you try to start it.

Weld small pieces to the frame where needed to match your skid plate -- drill & tap those pieces 

Was the display showing anything that wasn't normal?

That's some stiff fines...In my area they would have to have a fulltime officer to control those laws.

Here we have

Hi FF: Big Welcome Here

That $60 US or $60CAD?

 

These taxes are getting out of hand.  I've sent some stuff to Sam over the UK and if I sent it as a gift there weren't taxes charged....until suddenly they were.  Anything over 39 British pounds now gets taxed, even if it's a gift.

 

What I sent Sam I just arbitrarily put $50 as the value on it, not thinking it would even matter since it was clearly marked as a gift.  That put it under a dollar over that 39 pound mark (at the exchange rate the day I checked) and they were going to nail him with a big tax.

 

 

Hi Jeep: That's $60 CND

As long as it's under 60 bucks you don't get charged at the border

HI: Good under $60 no tax is only when you received something from family or friends living in the USA .

 Any goods over $20 you pay taxes 

Some goods I have received from the USA on a FedEx truck -- FedEx paid the tax then FedEx billed me for the tax they paid at the border.

HI: Before Christmas I was being charged 38 cents on every USD -- some thing are free shipping -- some not -- 15 % tax is collected at border on most items.

Hi: Big Welcome Here

Hi: Big Welcome Here

Hi: Big welcome here --- from East Coast of Canada

Hi: That's a good spot -- it sure will keep the trailer from getting caught on a tree -- great job with your trailer build

Mel , very nice, thanks for the pic -----  so what did you used , something like 2 " and 1 1'2 ? 

I used 2.5" schedule 40 and 2" schedule 40 -- pipe was free at the time. -- but long as you can find a pipe to go inside a a pipe go for it.

Hi: This is how I built it.

Hi: It would depend on what air pressure you run in your tires and the weight you have in the trailer - I run around 10 psi in each tire -- keeps trailer from bouncing around. -- the trailer tow bar is a pipe in side a pipe, so it will swivel -- had problem with the hitch lifting the rear of the bike when the trailer was going over large rock and stumps. -- pipe in the pipe made a big difference.

Do you have any automotive sound system places close? They probably have some of the fine strand wire for use on amps. I've used cheap jumper cables before just because I have zero options here and needed something the same day. Reading in the past going to the 6 awg will boost the 2500# winch to the 3500#. The larger size would work better in a longer run also.

Hi: Using # 6 cable will not boost a 2500 LB to a 3500 Lb winch -- # 6 cable with 12 volts applied to it will carry 200 amps up to a 10 ft length of cable.
