Default Puget Sound/Seattle/Northwest Area Riders Meet HERE!!!

Just took the mutts out, 4" of white stuff on the ground. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] And my quad is still at the farm. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img] I could be out plowing snow and having fun making money. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

Guess I'm just gonna have to stay in and watch people shovel. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

We're at the south end of west Seattle.

your shop needs a woodstove
I did see one of them electric heaters that looks just like a fan at Costco, it put out some pretty good heat, might go back and give it a closer look.
Unless that is a 240 volt unit you will probably be disappointed in the amount of heat you get out of it. Nearly all 120 volt plug in heaters are 1500 watt. Since you get 3.42 BTU per watt with resistance heat you will get the same amount of heat from a normal space, bathroom, heater.

Good way to put quick heat into a small shop is to wire in a 240 outlet and do a little modifying to an electric furnace. You can get them off CL quite often when people convert to gas.

Guy at work just sold his 02 Warrior for 3 bills without a fresh motor. Sounds like a good deal to me.
that is a good deal ....but I think the z400 would be better for her...more go in the sand and such

I think a head gasket is shat out too [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Gotta get in touch with my trike guru in New York. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Go to a hotter heat range plug and maybe change brand of oil.

The thing is Alida is not a very aggresive rider. She will look for the easy way up instead of charging the dune and clearing it.

THE THUMB ASSEMBLY IS STICKING?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] you try a new cable yet Sally? a little cable lube is also always a very good thing. If a door hinge squeaks, do you grease the hinge, or just buy a new house?
I know what my wife would do/did.
