Everyone says that you can't kill a XR600 also but I proved them wrong after that trip too[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] It was very late in the season and we really shouldn't have been riding in that heat

I have known a few of them to blow up but it is rare. How hot was it that weekend?

I HATE YOU!! I might shoot that once every 2 years, and I've been at it off/on for 25 years. i guess when ya suck at golf, it's hard to break the habits. congrats, that's a score to cherish until you hit the 70s. you must have received some good initial instruction. easier to build on a good foundation than trying to fix a rotten one.

Before I started I did take lesson which helped my get into good habits right from the start. I have to say that watching the golf channel has helped my game the most[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Dave Pelz putting tips and all the other instruction they give out all the time is what I have used to find out what I am doing wrong and how to fix it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Free lessons at golf while your feet are up and your hands on a cool one[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

That WR was rebuilt after really blowing it up at Pismo about 2 years ago. That time the crank locked up solid too. This time not even the bore got scratched.

IIRC 1/2" steel 4x8 plate on top. 6x6 square tube legs, err, maybe 4x4. Flange plates on the bottom for 6" castors (2 static and 2 swivel). Receptacles at all four corners. Just roll it wherever you need her, plug in and go to town. I guess it's not uncommon to find welders using it. We've got it for doing rigid pipe work. Have a 1/2"-2" RIGID threader, bench-top grinder, RIGID pipe clamp thing and a big @ss vise. We were going to put a drill-press on it. Boss ordered a 48" bench-top press. We took one look at it and realized that onle one guy in the shop would be tall enough to actually reach the handle. LOL Needless to say she's a bit heavy.
