Out doing business estimates this evening...
EjFord I'm going to pollute this thread for a moment and ask you if it's possible to paint the metal rollup doors in my storage units. I plan to paint the metal sides with Sherwin Williams superpaint but am afraid that will fail on the doors that roll up into a coil at the top of the opening instead of opening into the building.
Any advice?
Just out Monkeying around today…
125cc, fuel injection. Started with full tank (1.46 gallon capacity), rode 108 miles. Filled tank and it took 0.599 gallons - doing the math, that’s 180.3 mpg! Yowza! This thing is an absolute blast to tool around on. Still doing break-in so taking things easy. Hit 60 mph a couple of times.
Have ordered a little windscreen/fairing & a luggage rack.

like you say making children out of adults, and you proof that 😂😂
I rode over next Myrtle Beach/Murrell's Inlet. This is bike week and seemed to be a good crowd at 2 pm.
That 125cc left both of those tire marks? Damn

There is a Sherwin Williams product that will do the job... Let me check on exactly what it is.
Cleaned the tub a little
Think I need to clean mine too…

I thought about getting one of those monkeys. They look like a blast. Reminds me of the smaller dirt bikes when I was a kid. Would love to see a pic of the bike after the add-on's. Are they at home on dirt trails?

Definitely fun. Here’s a history link for those unfamiliar with the Monkey (it dates back to a Japanese theme park in 1961).

Yes, many people take these off-roading.
Will definitely post pics when mods added, but it will be a while. The luggage rack I ordered is coming from Japan & the fairing is coming from England. The fairing was a little spendy but definitely the best looking one on the market (paint is factory colr-matched. I’ll be using a Saddlemen expandable roll bag for the luggage rack so I can snag groceries, etc. It maintains its shape whether empty or full.
No where with the Slingshot today. Still trying to get my John Deere X300 tractor/mower running. Got half the yard done when it quick again. Dirty gas/gas tank/ filter. Got the gas flowing again but petty sure I flooded the engine as I couldn't get it to fire on starting fluid then it blew out about a cup of gas out the muffler. Tomorrow I will take the plugs out and turn her over a few times, dry the plugs and try again. If I manage not to catch the thing a fire. Now you see why I am not adding turbo myself. Maybe I should just go ride the Sling.
Frankie55 found a red one with same fairing & luggage rack (he has an aftermarket exhaust on this bike). Will still post pics when I get everything installed. The metallic blue paint is amazing.
That was the bike it reminds me of. The mini trail. I have to look for ways to make room. No room in the garage. May need to sell some things in the storage shed!
Sad day for me today
Took my Slingshot and all its stuff to its new home in Durham NC, Truck is sold and the trailer is going to a good friend and forum buddy. I can't believe that the Big Red Truck, Big Red Trailer and the Lone wolf will never be in the same place at the same time ever again.
But I will be hanging around just to annoy you all. - See you guys in Maggie I should be there Thursday
Sad day but maybe one day you can start over.
