jeepwm69 7,609 Posted April 1 I paint mine black but only because I duck hunt sitting on mine and don't want to flare the birds. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigcountry78 93 Posted April 1 Yes, I’m a glutton for punishment lol. I think silver paint will be the best, easiest way. I was just entertaining the idea of black wheels. I really wish I could sell the mud lites and put that money towards something else, but I can’t sell them in good faith knowing they don’t hold air well.

_Wilson_™ 6,567 Posted April 4 Well it was a two parter..... i can see now @goober (i recon ?) isnt coming back ? Thats too bad cause he sure knows carbs and loves those old school tanks plus hes a crackerjack at hondaline accessies .... i might not be too far behind him... (red plastic) yeah same reason i didnt go with red, but if it was a green bike I would shoot them to match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The test samples Look great!... i'll send ya via PM..... I’ll take a look at it, thank you! This has been on the back burner for a bit, had my gas sipper break down on me and the truck has to have tires to pass this year’s inspection so I’ve been dealing with those issues….. might start a tire thread for the truck lol. The good news is my effort seems to have paid off, the Bridgestones have been leak free as far as I can tell, and look great in my opinion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sipper may be down for the count, blowing oil out from somewhere.

I put a new radiator in it and then immediately after it started blowing motor oil from where the transmission and motor bolt together. It’s front wheel drive, so it’s mounted sideways. I can see where oil is pooled up but not sure where it’s coming from. Maybe a sensor is leaking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
