    American Restorations

    I love that show! I see them doing one thing over and over though that makes me cringe. Running a pedistal grinder with gloves on! A buffing wheel isn't too bad with no tool rest. But if it's got a tool rest and a grinding wheel you can grind off you hand in a few seconds with gloves on...

    Exhaust Header burns/safety

    Is there a good way to cover an exhaust header to prevent serious burns? I've been semi-lucky, but I can imagine someone flipping a mini and have the weight of the mini with its hot exhaust burning the hell out of someone. Hopefully not a kid. I've seen chrome covers for lawn mower mufflers that...

    Honda 6.5 Safety message-Please read!

    Over the weekend my friends had a minibike rally. A mile on grass and a mile on pavement stopped for lunch and back. My grandson runs a "Lil Indian Chopper". We were at a dead stop. He scooted on the seat, his leg brushed the throttle and in an instant he flipped the bike!! He's an expert...

    Motovox Doodle

    I don't know if anyone posted about this yet, but Kmart and Sears are starting to carry a new Doodle called Motovox and I guess they are dumping Baja. I talked with a factory rep and ordered a pair of foot pegs with springs and clips I'm sure they will fit the Baja Doodle too. Cost 14 bucks plus...

    Stock motor has an over sized shaft?

    A few thousands is a lot! Is this true? All the shafts measure over 0.625 inches? I don't remember the thread Zipseattle is quoting, but an over sized shaft would be a major bummer for trying to using a popular American made clutch then. My neighbors have the stock motor and are not too handy...

    Brake Pad spring keeper

    Any one have a source for just the brake pad spring clips? After a while they snap in half. The only way I know to get one is to buy the entire brake caliper. That kind of frosts me, especially since I switched to the hydraulic units. Any ideas?

    Harbor Freight Coupons-Just a guess.

    Since the first of the year, I have received three 20% off coupons and one 15% off coupon through e-mails. Cjtmini who lives with in 40 miles of me has received none. I believe the difference is that I ordered an electric hoist and swing arm from them online a few months before, for about 200...
