Brian, I’m adding a post with another photo of the rear suspension to give you a little different angle. As you said, there is really no shock dampening on the front swing arm.
The curious thing is how it all really works. The coil-over provides all the springing on the rear of the suspension by pushing against a fixed shaft that is only c…Read More

I doubt anyone else does this but I find that if I put a couple of squirts of Klotz in the lawn tractor gas tank when I fill it, I get a whiff of winter every time I fire it up. It really helps me get motivated to cut the grass

I use Klotz in my weed wacker and leaf blower. Sometimes have to turn the exhaust towards me and inhale deeply a couple times. I’ve got a Klotz candle, but I can only burn it when my wife isn’t around.

I put it in my chainsaw but I only use that a couple of times a summer. A friend of mine also has the candle. His wife is not a fan.

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend. Decided to create some fireworks of my own Saturday night (at least from a vocabulary perspective) and tear down the rear suspension.
There’s a lot not to like about the condition of the suspension. Some stuff is OK but I don’t think some parts can be…Read More

That is an interesting suspension, I take it the front swing arm is used only as an anchor for the rear shock? doesn’t seem like there would be enough movement in the front arm to really change positioning of the shock, when you put it back together would be interesting to see more how the rear arm actuates the shock, just doesn’t seem like the…Read More

All kidding aside, for all you do have a Safe Holiday Weekend. Pets too, keep the doggies cool and away from the noise makers.

Brian, you keep getting those grandkids out there. In what will seem like no time at all, they’ll be this age and loving fishing.

That’s my hope Kelly! and let me clear something up…this is NOT the first time I wanted to take them up north or fishing…it WAS the first time I was able to and now not only is it about forging relationships but exposing them to the outdoors and fishing, want to do this while it is cool so that when they are that age they will still love it.…Read More

Is there a way to post pictures in a “forum” wanted to put pictures up under “taking grandkids fishing” but did not see an option to do so and ended up posting on pictures page?

Brian, there is a way to do it but it’s not very user-friendly. It works the same way the “Insert Image” worked on the old JD forum. I used it a lot there so I am familiar with the method. The photos have to be uploaded to somewhere on the web . Then, to post a photo, you click on the little “img” tab to create a link to the photo location.…Read More

Thanks Kelly, I will stick with photo page, I did find the IMG tab and when what popped up did I was like huh???? photo page is easy peasy

![Profile picture of Minnesota Kelly]()
Yeah , all of the regular, non-forum pages work the same way as the photo page so it’s super easy to post photos in any of the them. I can see the forums being a great thing for longer conversations though.

Yeah, I’ve been back and forth with the I.T. guys. It’s one of those scenarios like, “this is what we can give you” and “but this is what I want”. For the time being, the general discussions is the best way to post pics.

I think I know those guys. They sound like some people I’ve worked with.

Does anybody have a SQUARE PEG FOR A SQUARE HOLE? ANYBODY? I just spent a considerable amount of time (again) on the same issue with the same people. Regarding posting pictures on the Forum. To be perfectly honest, it’s probably not worth your time and effort. For all intents and purposes it’s best to post your photos on the General Discussion…Read More

The Kawasaki “Kawa-Bunga” Project:
As hot as it is, why not think sleds
, so we’re talking egged-out suspension holes, caused by years of pounding.
There are a number of solutions, depending on the mounting design, including welding/brazing. Not having the ability to do either, I have to find other means. This will take a couple of post…Read More - Load More Posts
LOL!! Had some mixed gas with Klotz in it once and put it in my forklift could smell it for months after that LOL
