I found this old stove at a very old logging camp site. Found it disassembled laying in the grass. Missing legs, the top insert and the draft pan. Really cool looking. Took 6 years to have a good enough freeze without a ton of snow to get it out. Assembled it this summer. Besides the design the only marking on it is New King No. 36. Can't find anyone who knows anything about the company that made it.

I have pretty much the same stove in the basement!

Shouldnt be needing it for a bit as its been warm, even over night, last night 64f 👌

BTW.. a buddy of mine (who sadly passed away last year) used to have the same ATC110 i did. He was a year older than me & would lead all the rides back then, exploring new spots. This was a pic i snagged from his moms FB, she is on his ATC way back then. 

You could be right about that, those 3 wheeler pics are great! 

Today we had the Fall Colours Ride so i was on a different bike altogether,😆

We should be getting the tail end of the hurricane coming up the eastern seaboard. Really need the rain though...she's a tad bit dusty out there! 😮 Hope you guys are safe.

no gloves here, 

Yea same, tho i may have the odd time. They never told us the difference in high school shop class 😄

 

Working on.. well, today before 7am i lit a small fire in the wood stove, vacuumed (again) the oil furnace air filter section before putting it back together then turned the oil tank on & plugged it in. Came on right away. Then later got the toilet (been here since 1967) unclogged thank God... & got the 2 snowmobiles i have here going, since last March.

& its not even 2pm yet! Frigging winter! 😒

A friend of mine has the EGO electric chainsaw. I used it for several hours at his hunting shack. Weighs about the same as my Stihl. 16" bar. Cut well. I will stick with my Stihl but that saw worked very well. Mostly handy I would think where you are clearing a trail or shooting lane when you are walking or wheeling and use it intermittently. Then you're not leaving it run or starting it constantly.

Yea buddy of mine has one. He would carry a spare battery. No noise (which is weird) & I suppose would be good if you were cutting some small wood in the basement & dont want the fumes! 😮 

Oh yea theyre all mud corroded...guess they are known for wearing out fast lol. Wonder why! Greased them & put them back together till he gets the parts.

That XL.. be good in the sand pits, i imagine the chain isnt on there for a reason? 😄 🤨

Machine wise(not including the toilet), today i gave my bud a hand removing the rear bushing shafts to check inspect on his Brute Force, no grease from the factory so they all need replacing -_- 😑

Then took the Rincon all apart to check the valve clearance as the machine is still kinda unfamiliar to me maint/wise. I think i did them 2 years ago when i got it, they were all in spec, so i left them alone. 😆

Nice time of year for a fire in the yard.

yeah..don't listen to the guy thats always seeing and fixing es models with problems...he has no idea what he's saying !?!..whatever...lol.

We all know it 😉

Dont listen to that Shadetree guy he is anti ES 😜

I had the same 06 for about 7 years, & a buddy of mine kept his 05 here as well, no issues with mine, but his had a similar shifting issue, the shift motor brushes were worn out, & the connectors under the front plastics were dirty. Before you start swapping all the sensors (which is could still be the prob) if you can,  pull the shift motor & inspect it. There is also a "Speed Learn" diagnostic in the manual that was shared to relearn how the ECU see's the speed/gears.

What are you buying for? Work? Play? Cruise? I would pick the 79 cause its the last year of that body style, & the next one kinda goes on till around 96. Lots of them around (80s style) vs the 70s, unless theres lots where you are.

Oh you want old? This is the oldest i got 😛 

1983

I dont see any pic forum, so figured i'd start this one in Gen Chat 😄

Yesterday just enjoying whats left of the summer 😆😢

Oh? My mistake, i thought that was a flywheel &  pick up coil there. I was thinking how far either in or out beyond the coil the wheel was would help in determining where it should be.

Need a Honda original pic of that all together to see where the flywheel sits in regards to the pick up coil 😮🤫

Pandoras Box! In stock after 35 years, you are optimistic my friend 😉

Funny, my brother got a brand new 85 (750 here) left over Magna in 86. Havent seen one since. No Reagan restrictions here 😛
Thats the problem with anything now in the 80s or older, they are so old that anything hydraulic is likely rotten or full of old oil. The rubber piston cups on either end a lot of times rot out. This case (no pun intended 😛 ) had several issues. That rivet part, i wouldnt have predicted that. 😮

This one has some wicked sentimental valve to it , LOL , it was the one that my ex-wife  stuck in my face ,  loaded with one in the chamber  and tried to pull the trigger about 6 times , but the safety was on , this one is my friend , LOL 

 

Since today is my birthday , might have to unload  this one , wish I had a picture of my ex for a target , but I have since burned every pic of her , LOL 

 

I think about how much better my life might  have been if I wouldn't have married my ex , but then think that all the trials and tribulations may have made me a better person , this gun is a reminder to that 

Good times in the south! 

Pretty sure if it was me after that she would regret it  big time.

Start there with the key on & wiggle those wires connected to that harness. Watch the dash.

Forgot this little guy.. & the g/f's camera took a better pic of the 2 eagles.

Saw a few bald eagles today.

I had to look twice, to see "Stroker" 😆

Guess nobody wants one that says 388 😉

Oh.. & thats a Honda wood splitter 😆
